FLORHAM PARK, N.J. -- The New York Jets added a former Green Bay Packers quarterback Thursday, but not the one everyone has been expecting.
While continuing trade talks for Aaron Rodgers, the Jets signed one of his former backups, Tim Boyle, to a one-year contract, a source confirmed.
Boyle, 28, who finished last season on the Chicago Bears' roster, will be reunited with offensive coordinator Nathaniel Hackett. They overlapped for the 2019 and 2020 seasons in Green Bay, where Hackett served as the coordinator from 2019 to 2021.
