After more than three years away from football, Johnny Jolly says he’s in a good place, both personally and professionally on the Packers roster again. Jolly spoke in the locker room for 15 minutes today and among other things, said he got married last Monday to a woman he has known since 2010.
Jolly last played for the Packers during the 2009 season and then was suspended by the NFL indefinitely for violating the league’s drug policies.
He was reinstated this year and says his goal is to make the Packers’ roster. Jolly considers himself a changed man and said he loves football, but said he doesn’t need football to continue his rehabilitation from his past struggles. He said he would likely go back to college if his return to football doesn’t work out. Jolly said his first full-contact work since January 2010 went well.
"It comes to you after a couple days,” Jolly said. “Once you get everything situated with the plays and everything, you get more comfortable in the system. Everything’s just fine.”
