The Jets added a former Packers quarterback on Thursday — no, not that one.
The team agreed to a deal with veteran backup Tim Boyle, a source confirmed.
Boyle has been in the NFL for four years, spending the first two in Green Bay with new Jets offensive coordinator Nathaniel Hackett and Aaron Rodgers, the quarterback the Jets are still waiting on.
With uncertainty around when a Rodgers trade will be complete, Boyle gives the Jets another quarterback to take reps as they enter the offseason program on April 17.
He also knows Hackett’s system from playing under him in 2019 and 2020, so he can help teach other Jets the scheme.
