GREEN BAY – Packers cornerback Jaire Alexander has been named the Week 13 recipient of the 2019 NFL Way to Play Award. This is the second time Alexander has been honored with the award, as he was named the Week 12 recipient in 2018.


Each recipient of the Way to Play Award will receive a $2,500 equipment grant through USA Football to be awarded to the local youth or high school football program of the player's choice. In 2018, Alexander provided his alma mater, Rocky River High School, in Mint Hill, N.C., with the funding.


Introduced last year, the NFL Way to Play Award recognizes the excellence demonstrated by NFL players who exemplify proper technique to make impactful plays.
