2 Former Packers QBs Now Find Themselves With the Same Franchise
Not one but two former Packers quarterbacks have landed on one team.
In a surprising trade, the Green Bay Packers have acquired former quarterback Kyle McCord from the Miami Dolphins, while the Dolphins have welcomed another former Packer, Malik Willis, as their backup quarterback. ESPN senior NFL insider Adam Schefter reported that the Packers traded McCord to the Dolphins for a 2028 sixth-round pick.
Following the trade, the Dolphins now have both McCord and Willis as quarterbacks, marking a unique reunion of former Packers signal-callers on the same team. McCord is eager to take advantage of this opportunity after his stint in Green Bay, and the Dolphins needed an additional backup after sending off Quinn Ewers to the Jaguars.
As Jeff Hafley takes over the head coaching role, the Dolphins are poised to make significant changes, with the new quarterback room featuring familiar faces from the Packers organization. The implications of this unusual situation remain to be seen, but it undoubtedly adds an intriguing twist to the upcoming season for the Miami Dolphins.
