The Green Bay Packers will be going into the 2024 season with much higher expectations than many had previously thought. Not many fans and analysts would have predicted Green Bay to be a dark horse Super Bowl contender just one season after trading away Aaron Rodgers.
Jordan Love took the league by storm during the second half of the 2023 season and fans expect him to continue that play into 2024. However, one position struggling in Training Camp so far has urged analysts to encourage Green Bay to sign a specific veteran.
The Green Bay Packers May Sign Veteran QB After Recent Practice Performances
According to Max Dible of Heavy on Packers:
Andy Herman of Packer Report and the “Pack-A-Day Podcast” on Wednesday, July 24, suggested that it may be time for Green Bay to consider a veteran backup to guard against anything going off of the rails where Love is concerned. He specifically mentioned former Tennessee Titans signal-caller Ryan Tannehill.
“We may need to have a Ryan Tannehill conversation,” Herman posted to X. “I fully get and understand the [Indianapolis] Colts/Peyton Manning mantra of ‘we don’t practice [expletive],’ but the offense is a nightmare right now without Love. (To be fair, it’s still insanely early and these are young QBs.”
Tannehill earned Pro Bowl honors during his first campaign with the Titans in 2019, after which he led the team to the AFC Championship Game. He capitalized on that success by signing a four-year deal worth $118 million in March 2020 that expired at the end of last season.
This isn’t even close to the first time Green Bay has been linked to Tannehill. Green Bay has been prioritizing the back up quarterback position over the last few seasons, something they rarely did with Aaron Rodgers under center.
