Sometimes silence really is golden.

On Sunday, before the Lions-Packers game at Lambeau Field in Green Bay, there was a moment of silence to honor those who died in a terrorist attack in Paris over the weekend. The NFL did that at games around the league.

But during the moment of silence a fan shouted out a anti-Muslim slur, which didn't sit well with Green Bay quarterback Aaron Rodgers, Gerry Ahern of USA Today reports.

“I must admit, I was very disappointed with whoever the fan was that made a comment that was very inappropriate during the moment of silence,” Rodgers said, according to the report.

"It’s that kind of prejudicial ideology that puts us in the position we are today as a world.”
