Report: Packers contact free-agent QB Tannehill
The Green Bay Packers have contacted quarterback Ryan Tannehill about potentially signing with the club, sources told Dianna Russini of The Athletic.
Tannehill is a free agent after spending the last five seasons with the Tennessee Titans. He suited up in 10 contests (eight starts) in 2023, throwing for 1,616 yards with four touchdowns and seven interceptions.
Packers quarterback Jordan Love reportedly suffered an MCL sprain in Friday's contest against the Philadelphia Eagles. He was assisted off the field by medical personnel on the team's final drive.
Green Bay hopes Love only misses three-to-four weeks, but he will undergo further testing.
The Packers acquired quarterback Malik Willis in a trade with the Titans on Aug. 26. He was thrust into the game in relief of Love and has three career starts after being a third-round pick in the 2022 draft. Sean Clifford is on the practice squad.
Tannehill, 36, is 81-70 in 151 career starts split between with the Titans and Miami Dolphins.
