The Green Bay Packers have signed veteran quarterback Blake Bortles to a one-year deal, first reported by NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero.
This signing likely has little to do with Aaron Rodgers’ silence surrounding the drama that’s swirling involving him and the organization.
Here are a few reasons why this signing was the right move and will be beneficial for the team going forward.
Reason #1: Packers always have multiple QBs on roster
Green Bay primarily rolls with three quarterbacks during the season, so adding a veteran with experience to back up Aaron Rodgers and Jordan Love isn’t a bad move in the slightest.
