GREEN BAY, Wis. — Brayden Narveson might not have been the happiest person in his own family when the Green Bay Packers claimed him off waivers to make him their kicker. The move represented a homecoming for Narveson's wife. Shelby Narveson grew up with a family full of Packers fans in Prescott, Wisconsin. Prescott is located just east of the Minnesota border and about 270 miles west of Green Bay. Narveson will make his NFL regular-season debut Friday when the Packers open their season against the Philadelphia Eagles in Sao Paulo, Brazil.
