From Cedar Creek To Lambeau: Bo And Max Melton NFL Matchup
Cedar Creek alums Bo and Max Melton played against each other today in an NFL game featuring the Green Bay Packers and Arizona Cardinals.
Bo, a wide receiver for Green Bay, and Max a cornerback for Arizona, faced off for the first time ever at Lambeau Field in Green Bay.
Bo had one catch for six yards and two carries for 27 yards in the game. His younger brother Max made four tackles in the game.
"We always played in the backyard, my mom was crying on the way here," Bo Melton said after the game, which Green Bay won 34-13.
Max did not make a tackle on his brother Bo.
His parents were at the game and had some unique jerseys on to support their two sons, with a green Packers jersey on the front for Bo and a white Cardinals jersey sewed to the back to support Max.
The brothers often played together in the backyard while growing up in Mays Landing, and then for one season in high school for Cedar Creek and college at Rutgers University for two seasons.
Bo was a seventh-round selection by Seattle in 2022, while Max was a second-round pick by Arizona in the 2024 NFL Draft.
