Former Seahawks draft pick turned USFL MVP signing with Green Bay Packers

Following a dominant 2023 USFL season culminating in a league MVP and a championship, former Seattle Seahawks quarterback Alex McGough is looking to earn an NFL roster spot once again.

According to KPRC2’s Aaron Wilson, McGough is signing one-year contract with the Green Bay Packers. With Aaron Rodgers following in Brett Favre’s footsteps and playing with the New York Jets, the current Green Bay quarterback depth chart consists of expected starter Jordan Love, former Penn State starter Sean Clifford, and another former Seahawk in Danny Etling.

McGough, a seventh-round pick by Seattle in 2018, never made it to the Seahawks’ active roster but did stay on the practice squad in two separate stints.
