Coach Matt LaFleur said hes never ever seen a running back developed the very same method.
Yes, Packers novice running back A.J. Dillon basically stole the show during the teams first training camp practice on Saturday.
Reporters at practice got the ball rolling, and social networks did the rest, turning a number of images of Dillons huge frame into a viral experience.
Linebacker Christian Kirksey stated he has “tree trunks” for legs.
Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers called him a “big guy” and a “durable person.”
The 247-pound rookie running back sure looks the part:

What Ive gleaned from training camp hence far is that AJ Dillon is a big human.

There is nobody on the group built like AJ Dillon. Something you just need to see in person to think. His thighs are ridiculous.

Armed with the astonishing visuals of the rookie running back, Twitter had a field day:
, if AJ Dillon would have played at a much better college he would have been a shoo-in for the Thighsman Trophy.

Keep in mind, Dillon posted this flexing image back in June. We must have seen this coming.
