Shock Move: Ex-Packers QB Leapfrogs Daniel Jones on Giants Depth Chart!
Green Bay Packers General Manager Brian Gutekunst entered the 2024 NFL season with ambitions of reviving the team’s legacy as a “quarterback factory,” reminiscent of the days when Brett Favre’s backups—Mark Brunell, Matt Hasselbeck, and Aaron Brooks—went on to flourish as NFL starters. However, that vision remains a work in progress. Both quarterbacks drafted to back up Jordan Love were cut before the season, leaving Malik Willis as the current backup.
Meanwhile, former Packers quarterback Tim Boyle has carved out his own path as a reliable NFL journeyman. In a surprising twist, Boyle recently overtook $40 million starter Daniel Jones on the New York Giants’ depth chart. Adding intrigue to the Giants’ season, Tommy DeVito, remembered by Packers fans for leading a last-minute victory against Green Bay last year, has been named their starter.
