Green Bay, WI – June 27, 2025,
The Green Bay Packers’ $64 million superstar has pledged to retire in the city he calls home, vowing to lead the team to Super Bowl LX, sources told ESPN Friday. The declaration has electrified Cheeseheads.
The defensive tackle, a cornerstone of the Packers’ defense, shared his heartfelt commitment. His loyalty has reignited hope for a championship run.
“I could’ve chased a bigger contract somewhere else, but I chose loyalty over money. Green Bay believed in me, gave me a purpose, and now I want to help bring another Lombardi Trophy back home. This team, this fanbase — this is my legacy,” Kenny Clark said on Packers Podcast.
Clark, 29, signed a three-year, $64 million extension in July 2024. His 32 sacks and 305 tackles in nine seasons anchor the line.
Coach Matt LaFleur praised the vow, noting, “Kenny’s heart is with us.” The extension reflects his dedication since being drafted in 2016.
With $22 million in cap space, the Packers lean on Clark’s leadership. His 2024 season with 7 sacks fueled playoff hopes.
The city’s last Super Bowl win was XLV in 2011. Clark aims to end that drought, targeting Super Bowl LX in 2026.
Fans see Clark as a symbol of resilience. His commitment could inspire a young roster led by Jordan Love.
As training camp nears, Clark’s pledge boosts morale. Can he deliver the trophy? Follow ESPN for updates.
