Desmond Ridder: Breaking News

Time up with Packers

Green Bay cut Ridder on Monday, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports. Ridder being let go by the Packers corresponds with the team signing veteran signal-caller Tyrod Taylor as the new top backup to Jordan Love. Last season, Ridder spent time with the Vikings before being cut in December and then inking with Green Bay, where he replaced Clayton Tune as the team's emergency QB3. He didn't log a regular-season appearances with either Minnesota or the Packers. The 2022 third-round pick will now look for a chance to compete for a reserve role elsewhere in the league.

Serving as Emergency QB

Ridder (coach's decision) is inactive but will serve as the Packers' emergency third quarterback during Saturday's wild-card matchup versus the Bears, Mike Spofford of the team's official site reports. Ridder will serve as the team's No. 3 quarterback after being signed to the active roster from the practice squad earlier in the week. He is prohibited from playing unless both Jordan Love and Malik Willis were to exit the game due to injury, illness or ejection.

Joins active roster

Green Bay signed Ridder off the practice squad Tuesday. Ridder replaces Clayton Tune as the Packers' QB3 behind Jordan Love and Malik Willis (shoulder) after Tune completed just six of 11 passes for 34 scoreless yards in Sunday's regular-season finale against Minnesota.
