Ex-Packers Pro Bowl Quarterback Allegedly Chokes Man in Bar

Wisconsin — Former Green Bay Packers Pro Bowl quarterback Don Majkowski was cited after a bar altercation, according to WFRV 5, which cites a local police report. The incident reportedly began when staff tried to break up a shoving match between Majkowski and another man.

Staff members said Majkowski allegedly grabbed a worker by the throat, leaving a red mark but causing no injury. He was then escorted outside. Police noted Majkowski appeared extremely intoxicated and, unable to arrange a ride, was taken to a hotel by officers.

Shortly after, hotel staff called police about an intoxicated man without a room; it turned out Majkowski was booked at a different hotel. In the report, the former quarterback claimed he was “jumped” by boyfriends of women at the bar who were “jealous because he used to be an NFL player.”

Majkowski’s best season came in 1989, when Green Bay went 10–6 and he earned a Pro Bowl nod, before injuries derailed his career and Brett Favre took over as the starter.

The matter remains under review. The information above is based on a police report and WFRV 5’s account; no legal determination has been made.
