Pundits continue to link the Green Bay Packers to other potential backup quarterback options this offseason. That makes sense given the lack of experience or upside behind Jordan Love in the team’s quarterback room. But the Packers already have a signal-caller in Kyle McCord trying to become the next Malik Willis.
The Athletic’s Matt Schneidman reported Friday that McCord was one of 13 roster players participating in rookie minicamp from May 1-2. The Packers signed the 2025 sixth-round pick to a futures deal in January.
At rookie minicamp, McCord described the fit in Green Bay and what he wants to provide the team.
“I think Malik definitely set the blueprint of what to do and how to make the most out of that opportunity,” McCord said, via Schneidman. “When I had the chance to sign here, it was really a no-brainer in my mind.”
