Packers host tryout for former Jets QB James Morgan
The Green Bay Packers had Ashwaubenon native and former New York Jets quarterback James Morgan in town for a workout on Wednesday, according to Aaron Wilson of Pro Football Network.
It’s clear general manager Brian Gutekunst wants to stay updated on the available quarterback market. As it stands to open training camp, Danny Etling is the team’s No. 3 quarterback.
The Jets drafted Morgan out of FIU in the fourth round of the 2020 draft.
Morgan (6-4, 229) has spent time on the practice squad of the Jets, Carolina Panthers, Pittsburgh Steelers and Indianapolis Colts. He was most recently released in late May.
Morgan set the school record at FIU for touchdown passes in a season (26) in 2018.
