Packers releasing quarterback Danny Etling during final cuts
The Green Bay Packers released quarterback Danny Etling during final roster cutdowns on Tuesday, per Adam Schefter of ESPN.
Etling completed 17 of 22 passes for 220 yards and a touchdown over three preseason games. He also rushed seven times for 73 yards, including a 51-yard touchdown during the Packers’ win over the New Orleans Saints.
The release is not a surprise. The Packers will keep four-time NFL MVP Aaron Rodgers and 2020 first-round pick Jordan Love on the roster as the only two quarterbacks, but it’s certainly possible Etling will return to Green Bay as the No. 3 quarterback on the practice squad.
