The Packers selected Sternberger with the 75th overall pick in the third round of the 2019 NFL draft following his productive career at Texas A&M. After not recording any stats in his rookie season, he put up 12 receptions for 114 yards and a touchdown in 12 games in 2020.
Sternberger received a two-game suspension from the NFL earlier this year for an incident in which he drove drunk while on anti-depressants and fell asleep at the wheel back in February 2020. Green Bay released him after his suspension ended.
