""Martin got so wide open," Favre said at the time. "But the thing was, there was Greg Jennings pointing to him being so wide open. ... I've never had a guy running down the field pointing to a teammate who happened to be wide open.""
""It was a nothing touchdown because we were down like three scores, at least at the time," Rodgers said. "I love Ru, though. Ru was my guy on the look team for three years. ... One of my all-time favorite teammates.""
Ruvell Martin's first NFL touchdown came after a busted play when Brett Favre adjusted and threw a 36-yard pass to Martin down the left sideline after Greg Jennings pointed him out. Martin had been running a deep dummy route intended to clear the corner for Jennings, who had cut across the middle. Two years later Martin caught a 4-yard touchdown from Aaron Rodgers in the fourth quarter of a 51-29 loss to the New Orleans Saints. That catch made Martin one of six players to record touchdown receptions from both Favre and Rodgers. Rodgers called Martin his 'guy on the look team' and an all-time favorite teammate.
