And at one point, Nick was like most Wisconsin kids.
"I think he had a Packers jersey as a young kid," Jim Bellore recalled.
But now?
"Oh yeah that's easy, we're on the Seattle side. And I don't think my friends and family would even ask," Nick's Mom Mary Bellore says with a laugh.
These days, he mainly plays special teams, which can concern a mother.
"Special teams is really intense," Mary Bellore says.
And in the NFL, Bellore played linebacker until his previous stop with the Lions, when they switched him to fullback. And that's where Jim as a story, only a father can tell.
"He told me, if we get into a certain situation, they would call a play for him. They're in the exact situation. So I get my camera out, the play starts. I stand up. And I drop my phone. I was in the stands, but I missed his first touchdown. He's only scored two touchdowns, both in the NFL. These were his only two touchdowns because he played linebacker and offensive tackle in youth football!" Jim says with a chuckle.
At least two people in Whitefish Bay hope his third, come Sunday.
