The Packers have agreed to sign practice squad quarterback Joe Callahan to the 53-man roster, Tom Silverstein of the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel tweets. For now, he’s slated to serve as Brett Hundley‘s backup.

The Packers, of course, will be without Aaron Rodgers for an extended period after he suffered a broken collarbone. Even after losing one of the league’s best quarterbacks, it’s not clear whether the Packers will seriously explore outside options. The Packers have always been big on their philosophy of promoting from within and they may feel that Hundley is better suited for the task than a veteran quarterback who does not know the playbook.
Hundley, a fifth round pick in the 2015 draft, attempted just 11 NFL passes before Sunday’s game. He’s now quadrupled that total with 44 attempts.
Callahan, 24, first joined the Packers as an undrafted free agent in the spring of 2016. He has yet to play in an NFL game, but he has gotten a taste of life on the fringes of the NFL after being released and claimed a couple times over. He had brief stints with the Browns and Saints before circling back to Green Bay last December.
Maybe the Packers should bring in Colin. How do you think that act would play in Title Town.
Not well, fans would flip out and throw away their fake ownership certificates.
Should be fine. Treat it like any other player (it is). It’s only a big deal to the media.
Try telling Packer fans that.
I think there would be a lot of angry fans, just based on the Packer fans I know.
They don’t need that media circus and the backlash
Sign Kaepernick already
Bring back Farve
Don’t take Tony Romo he’s good in the booth.
Romo would get killed with the OL and his lack of mobility.
Boys, first round pick for Tyrod Taylor and Darius. I match made in heaven
Kaepernick is not an option. This team is built around the passing game and he is anything but.
Start working the phones for a veteran backup that could carry the load.
Rather play hundley than kaep.
Callahan for a backup plan is not good there are better options in free agents and other players on other teams practice squads
