Is this the same Desmond Bishop who used to play for the Packers Super Bowl team in 2010 under coordinator Dom Capers?

 

[Boone]

Yes - he was a Packer, then a Viking for a year, with brief signings with the Cardinals and 49ers. He tore his hamstring so bad he required surgery and never got back on the field with the Packers. Tore his ACL a year or so later.

Packers have a way of sending guys named Desmond to the Super Bowl.
