The Green Bay Packers saw one of their former quarterbacks become unemployed today. The Packers have obviously moved on from a number of quarterbacks in recent memory, no one more memorable than Aaron Rodgers. However, it wasn’t Rodgers who lost his job.
Former Green Bay Packers Quarterback Tim Boyle Gets Released From The New York Jets
According to Sean Leahy of Yahoo Sports:
While one New York football team seems to have found a quarterback to rely on with their starter done for the season, the other team in the Big Apple is shuffling the depth chart again.
The New York Jets will be waiving Boyle after two starts, according to CBS Sports’ Josina Anderson, and are signing quarterback Brett Rypien from the Seattle Seahawks‘ practice squad ahead of their Week 14 game against the Houston Texans.
Boyle is done after two games where he threw for a total of 327 yards, three interceptions and one touchdown, while being sacked eight times. He replaced Zach Wilson during their Week 11 loss to the Buffalo Bills and it now appears as if Wilson will reclaim his starting job, at least for now.
Will Tim Boyle Be Back In The NFL?
There has been an epic failure in the New York Jets’ quarterback room this season. Aaron Rodgers tore his Achilles on only the fourth play of the season opener, the Jets dragged out a comeback quarterback in Zach Wilson that everyone (except the Jets) knew would struggle.
After 10 appearances, Wilson was benched in favor of a player who had thrown 106 career passes, eight of which were intercepted, and had not shown even during his collegiate career that he could play at the NFL level.
It is very possible that Boyle will be back with the Jets this year, however, they are going to explore any move possible to get back into playoff conversations. Rodgers has made it clear that will impact his decision to play again this season.
