The Green Bay Packers Hall of Fame Featured Player of the Week for Week 3 is Punter Tim Masthay.During Monday's contest against the Seattle Seahawks, Masthay helped keep the Seahawks' return game in check by posting a 43.7-yard net average on six punts, including three inside the 20-yard line.
The Hall of Fame's Featured Player of the Week program features an exhibit with memorabilia from each week's game, including a game ball autographed by the selected player.
Each week, the game football will be placed on display to be viewed by visitors to the Hall and at the end of the week will be awarded randomly to a Hall of Fame visitor who signed up for the drawing.
Also in the exhibit will be the featured player's jersey, as well as potentially other items such as a face mask, shoes, gloves and other equipment.
The exhibit opened Sept. 10 and will continue through the season. Hall of Fame admission is required to see the exhibit, and visitors are able to fill out a drawing form for a chance to win the ball. One drawing ticket will be distributed per each paid admission. Drawing winners will be selected at close of business Saturday and be notified on or before the following Monday.
The winners of game balls thus far have been Tom Byers of South Bend, Ind. (Week 1, Randall Cobb) and Pam Bue of Black River Falls, Wis. (Week 2, Clay Matthews).
The featured player will be selected after each game and will be indicated on the team's Web site, Packers.com. Packers.com also will feature a photo of the display at the beginning of each week.
