Packers QB Sean Clifford Has Surprised a Lot of People in Camp This Year

The Green Bay Packers started training camp with a lot of questions at the quarterback position. But after training camp and two preseason games, some of those questions have been answered. Jordan Love has showed he’s capable of starting while rookie Sean Clifford at least looks ready to be the backup signal caller for the Packers.

When the Pack drafted Clifford, many experts were skeptical the Penn State alum had what it takes to succeed in the NFL. The big issue, according to scouts, was whether Clifford had the arm strength to compete in the pros. While the Packers picked him in the fifth round of this year’s NFL Draft, many scouts thought he would be drafted in the seventh round or be a priority free agent because of his lack of his arm strength.
