Green Bay Packers fans had a star defender’s name trending on X following the team’s loss to the New York Giants on Monday Night Football. The Packers’ defense allowed the Giants to drive down the field for a game-winning field goal on the game’s final possession.
Most Packers fans blamed defensive coordinator Joe Barry for the collapse. However, star pass rusher Rashan Gary received plenty of criticism on social media for his play against the Giants.
Head coach Matt LaFleur said after the game he was disappointed in how the Packers’ defense allowed Giants quarterback Tommy DeVito to run around and escape pressure. Gary wasn’t a major factor in the Packers pass rush Monday night, and missed getting home to DeVito on multiple plays.

I don't I heard Rashan Gary's name called all night. For a guy that just got a huge contract that can't happen against one of the worst teams in the league.

Please stop talking about him as if he is TJ Watt or Bosa or Micah Parsons. He is not. If he was, he would have been a monster tonight. Just invisible. Horrible game.
