    Randall Cobb.

    Randall Cobb didn't solely play for the Green Bay Packers during his 13-year NFL career.

    He played one season with the Dallas Cowboys, one with the Houston Texans and one with his best friend, Aaron Rodgers, with the New York Jets. That last one still seems weird, doesn't it?

    Cobb has had a tremendous NFL career — not bad for a second-round pick out of Kentucky — but he could be finally hanging up his cleats. This season, rather than playing in the NFL, Cobb is going to be a studio analyst for the SEC Network, though he hasn't officially retired .

    Cobb may have also played elsewhere, but he'll always be remembered fondly amongst fans of the Packers. His first eight NFL seasons were in Green Bay, where he earned a reputation as one of the best slot receivers in the league.

    He didn't play special teams much, but his very first play as a rookie was a 108-yard kick return for a touchdown. It was an incredible play, if not ill-advised, but he said after the game that God told him to run the kick back.

    Speaking of big plays, he made many throughout his Packers career.

    Who could forget this catch?

    Or this one:

    Cobb had a knack for making big plays against the Chicago Bears, which made him a legend in Green Bay.

    He even came back for two seasons as a veteran to help his friend, Rodgers, get acclimated to several new rookie receivers.

    Yes, he has played elsewhere, too, but Cobb will always be one of the greatest Packers to ever do it.
