GREEN BAY, Wis. – The Green Bay Packers didn’t sign a veteran backup quarterback last year, and they almost certainly won’t sign one this year – no matter what the pundits say.
Last offseason, with the Packers moving full steam ahead with Jordan Love, general manager Brian Gutekunst could have signed a veteran backup to provide some insurance and a seasoned set of eyes to help Love. Instead, he chose to go with rookie Sean Clifford. It hardly was a battle, with Clifford easily outclassing USFL MVP Alex McGough.
With Packers training camp set to start on July 22, the Packers again seem poised to go young.
