The Green Bay Packers and the Chicago Bears will face each other for the first time this season this week, which should make for some great television. While it is one of the most historic rivalries in sports, the Packers have seemed to always have Chicago’s number in recent memory. To make this game more interesting, Packers’ star corner Xavier McKinney called out Bears’ star DJ Moore ahead of the matchup.
Green Bay Packers Star Calls Out DJ Moore
McKinney called out Moore for walking off of the field on rookie quarterback Caleb Williams amid the team’s struggles.
This dude walked out on his QB… I don’t think I’ve ever seen that. You’re supposed to be the guy, and you’re just walking off the field. You’re walking off the field on a rookie QB.
DAMN: #PACKERS DB XAVIER MCKINNEY
WENT OFF ON #BEARS WR DJ MOORE.“This dude walked out on his QB.. I don’t think I’ve ever seen that. You’re supposed to be the guy and you’re just walking off the field. You’re walking off the field on a rookie QB.”
BEARS-PACKERS SUNDAY.

Packers Vs. Bears Rivalry
This matchup between these two teams will likely be one of the closer battles they’ve had in recent history. While the Bears seem to be trending in the wrong direction, they still have more talent on paper than Green Bay. Although the Packers have been the much better team this season, the new era in Chicago could sneak up and come away with the upset.
The Moore and McKinney matchup should be a great battle to watch this weekend.
