Green Bay Packers cornerback Jaire Alexander turns 28 years old on Feb. 9, 2025. What could be the perfect birthday present for the two-time All-Pro?
A chance to lift the Lombardi Trophy.
Asked where this Packers team could be headed in 2024, Alexander gave a super response.
“You know, it’s hard to say right now. But at the end of the day, I see us hoisting that trophy on my birthday, Feb. 9,” Alexander said Tuesday.
Super Bowl LIX is set to be played on Feb. 9 at the Caesers Superdome in New Orleans.
Alexander said it would be “fitting” to win a title on his birthday.

The Packers haven’t won a Super Bowl since beating the Pittsburgh Steelers at AT&T Stadium on Feb. 6, 2011, when Alexander was 14 years old. He wasn’t even born when Brett Favre and the Packers won a Super Bowl by beating the New England Patriots in New Orleans on Jan. 26, 1997 — roughly two weeks before his birth.
Can Alexander help this Packers team — led by quarterback Jordan Love — end another 14-year Super Bowl drought on his birthday?
