It seems that a former three-time national champion quarterback is coming back to Wisconsin to continue his NFL dream.
The Green Bay Packers recently signed a Pleasant Prairie, Wisconsin native, safety Kyle Sebetic, to the team's 90-man roster. Today, it appears, they are bringing another player with Wisconsin connections back to America's Dairyland.
Quarterback Matt Blanchard has signed with the Packers today, as his personal quarterback coach announced on Twitter:
Just Received call from 4 year student @Matt_Blanchard_ he is signing with Green Bay @packers @veryproud @throwitdeep @gwtp @buildingQBs

As Sheehy noted, Blanchard won three Division III titles at Whitewater, leading his team to the championship in each of his three years there in 2009, 2010, and 2011.
