Rashan Gary holds back tears during Packers powerful locker room celebration speech

The Green Bay Packers entered Week 3 without their number one pass catcher, pass protector, and pass defender. But it didn't matter because they had their number one pass rusher.

Rashan Gary put in the performance of his life, making three sacks, four quarterback hits, and three tackles for loss. The New Orleans Saints had no answer for him.

It's hard to believe that the Packers are still easing Gary back into a full-time role after recently returning from a torn ACL. He led the way in a dominant defensive performance.

After overturning a 17-point deficit in the fourth quarter, head coach Matt LaFleur led an emotional locker room celebration, handing game balls to Gary and Jordan Love. Gary fought back tears as LaFleur gave him a game ball.
