DeShone Kizer, Tim Boyle show signs, but is it enough for Packers?

GREEN BAY, Wis. -- There was one summer when the Green Bay Packers' backup quarterbacks were so bad that by the end of training camp, they had dumped them all.

This isn’t 2013, when the Packers cycled through Graham Harrell, Vince Young and B.J. Coleman by the preseason’s end and were wholly unprepared when Aaron Rodgers broke his collarbone in early November. (Remember, they tried Seneca Wallace and Scott Tolzien before they brought back Matt Flynn).

But just because DeShone Kizer and Tim Boyle combined for three touchdown passes in Thursday’s 28-26 preseason opening win over the Houston Texans at Lambeau Field, it doesn’t mean the Packers should feel great about their chances if anything were to happen to Rodgers.
