GREEN BAY (WLUK) — Standing at 6 feet 5 inches and weighing 315 pounds, Warren Brinson is hard to miss.

The Packers rookie defensive lineman may be big in size but his personality is even bigger.”A lot of microphones, a lot of lights,” Brinson said while meeting with Wisconsin media for the first time. “How do I look guys? Look good?”After joking about being camera ready, Brinson shared a give he had received from Packers superfan and International Fan of the Year nominee Matthias Krause.”I just got some chocolate from the guy that did my pick. The German guy,” Brinson said. “He said it’s the best chocolate in Germany. I can’t read it so I’m going to Google translate all of this after this.”Brinson was the Packers lone sixth round pick in this year’s NFL Draft. The defensive lineman is one of eight former Georgia Bulldogs currently on Green Bay’s roster.

“It’s fire having my teammates here,” Brinson said. “It’s gonna be the whole Georgia squad out there again. I call it the ‘Pack Dogs.’ Get it? Like Packers and dogs travel in a pack. I coined that.”

With the depature of TJ Slaton in free agency, defensive tackle was a position of need for Green Bay entering this year’s draft.

While such need wasn’t addressed until the sixth round, the Packers believe Brinson is more league-ready as a rookie than Slaton was.

“I think Brinson coming out he probably has a little more pass rush naturally,” Packers general manager Brian Gutekunst said. “The coaching staff and I believe he can play up and down the line. He’s not just a one position player on the defensive line.”

Brinson believes he was a good pass rusher in college but understands that doesn’t automatically mean he will succeed at such in the NFL.

“I gotta work hard, ask Kenny [Clark] some stuff, learn from the guys around me and get into practice and just hear what they have to tell me,” Brinson said. “I’m trying to be a sponge and just soak in all the information, find out the nuances of the NFL that I need to know to be elite and be ahead of other people.”

Brinson’s goal is to play in the NFL for as long as possible, but that hasn’t stopped him from thinking about life after football.

“I want to be on ESPN one day so I was like let me just get in front of a camera. That’s why I started my podcast ‘Beyond the Hedges’,” Brinson said. “When I was doing itwith the payers down at Georgia it was just to get my footprint out there. I didn’t have to go get a journalism degree. No knock on you guys haha”

The hope is to continue his podcast here in Green Bay and get some of his fellow Pack Dawgs teammates on.

The Packers’ eight rookies offer a mixed bag of personalities, which is something head coach Matt LaFleur is okay with.

“I think we embrace everybody’s personality,” LaFleur said. “At the end of the day I want these guys to be themselves. I don’t want robots. I want guys to be true to themselves. I think that’s how they’re going to maximize their ability and their time here.”

Brinson is no robot. He’s thankful for the Packers taking a chance on him and is embracing the beginning of his NFL journey.

“I’m in the NFL. I’m living the dream. I get to play football for fun now,” Brinson said. “I’ve just got a smile on my face. We did a walk through and I’m just smiling. I’m like, ‘Whoa bro. I’m really here now.’ It’s a blessing.”
