Acme Packing Company on Tyrod Taylor

Taylor signed as veteran backup presence; no real competition for backup role.

Signed to a one-year, $2.5 million deal as a veteran backup quarterback presence; the source notes the Packers never let anyone else take significant snaps with the second-team offense during training camp, and after trading Kyle McCord to Miami, the team admitted there was never really a competition for the backup job. Taylor has prior connection with Green Bay passing game coordinator Jason Vrable, who was the assistant quarterbacks coach with Buffalo in 2016 when Taylor was the starter.
