NFL superstar and Green Bay Packer wide receiver Randall Cobb posted a picture of himself in costume for his Broadway debut in Rock of Ages last night at The Helen Hayes Theater.

He wrote on Instagram: "U ready @RockOfAges? #JustLetYaSoulGlow#BroadwayBlitz #Debute".

Check out his badass transformation below!

Coming up, Detroit Lions running back Joique Bell just appeared in the 8 p.m. show tonight, January 29, followed by four-time Pro-Bowl running back Ahman Green at the matinee performance on Saturday, February 1, 2014.

The #BroadwayBlitz is just one of the exciting ventures Rock of Ages has planned in the lead up to Super Bowl XLVIII. The cast will perform on the Roman Numerals Stage of "Super Bowl Boulevard - Engineered by GMC" at 41st Street & Broadway on Thursday, January 30, and - during the final hours before kickoff - at the official NFL Tailgate Party at the Grandstand at Meadowlands Racetrack and Game Day Fan Plaza outside of MetLife Stadium on Super Bowl Sunday, February 2.

NFL Wide Receiver Randall Cobb was drafted by the Green Bay Packers in the 2nd round of the 2011 NFL Draft. In the opening game of that season, and the first of Cobb's career, he recorded his first NFL touchdown on a 32-yard reception in the first quarter, and followed up with a 108 yard kickoff return in the third quarter, tying the record for longest kickoff return in NFL history. That play was later named Play of the Year at the NFL Honors banquet. That same season, Cobb made an 80-yard punt return for a touchdown against the Minnesota Vikings, becoming the first rookie in Packers history to return both a kick and a punt for a touchdown in the same season. Cobb followed up his rookie campaign with an 80 catch season in 2012, accounting for 954 yards and 8 touchdowns. In week 17 of the 2013 season, Cobb caught a 48-yard touchdown pass with under a minute to go - giving the Packers a win over the Chicago Bears and a playoff berth, and Cobb his second nomination for a Play of the Year award.
