6 times Roger Goodell was lustily booed at the NFL Draft

[ASFN Admin]

Roger Goodell is no stranger to fans booing him, especially at the NFL draft.

Since his arrival to the league, Goodell has been mercilessly booed. It kind of comes with the job. (Fans just seemingly despise the commissioner of their favorite league and pro football isn't any different.) Make a public appearance? Booed. Present awards at the Super Bowl? 100 percent booed. Open the NFL draft? The boos start at the mere sound of the commissioner's name and if people could throw tomatoes they probably would. (Not even bringing out Eminem at the 2024 NFL Draft could save Goodell.)

At this point, it is what it is. It's seemingly become a tradition, and Goodell has embraced it. So, in honor of this most joyous occasion, which will happen again at the 2025 NFL Draft at Lambeau Field, let's take a look back at some of the best booing in recent years.

Here are six of the best times Goodell was booed at the NFL draft:
