"The Packers just went from Equanimeous (meaning equal) to Looney." 

I thought they said it meant staying calm under pressure.

From the 6th round thread:

”Equanimeous (a form of equanimity, meaning to stay calm and cool under pressure) played in seven games as a freshman (one catch, eight receiving yards, blocked punt against USC), missing the final four with a shoulder injury. He and Deshone Kizer formed an alliance in 2016, however, allowing him to use his tall frame, huge catching radius, and long strides to lead the Irish with 58 receptions, 961 yards, and nine receiving touchdowns. Notre Dame's passing game went south with Brandon Winbush leading the offense, so St. Brown's statistics dropped (33 catches, 515 yards, four touchdowns). After his brother, Amon-Ra, decided to attend USC instead of UND as a five-star receiver recruit, Equanimeous' road to the NFL was paved.”

Both "equanimity" and "equal" are derived from "aequus," a Latin adjective meaning "level" or "equal." 

Looks like it has multiple applications. Both are correct.
