MILWAUKEE (AP) -- Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers and Milwaukee Brewers outfielder Ryan Braun have signed a licensing agreement for a new restaurant bearing their names.

The 8(asterisk)twelve restaurant in Brookfield is expected to open in late June. The SURG group will operate the restaurant, which will feature American classics on a wood-fire grill.

The SURG group also operates Ryan Braun's Graffito restaurant in Milwaukee's Third Ward.
