Packers Eye Richardson for QB Depth

It's March 17th for the NFL.

Let's get into it.

The Green Bay Packers face a real challenge at Backup Quarterback after losing Malik Willis

to the Miami Dolphins in Free Agency.

Willis stepped up big over the last two seasons when Jordan Love got hurt, playing at a starter

level that drew interest from other teams.

Now, the Packers are left with less exciting options, like Desmond Ritter and Kyle McCord

behind Love on the Dept Chart.

Here this week, CBS Sports analyst John Breach predicted Green Bay will trade for Indian

apolis Colts Quarterback Anthony Richardson to fix the issue.

Richardson has been available for trade since late February after the Colts decided to

move on following three underwhelming seasons.

Fans and analysts see this as a smart move because Love has missed at least two games each

of the past two years, so a reliable backup matters.

Packers Coach Matt LaFour has a track record of developing Young Quarterbacks, just like

he did with Willis who looks shaky early on.

Richardson brings elite athleticism and a strong arm, traits that could thrive under LaFour's

guidance.

Even if he sits behind Love, he offers clear upside as a project player who might see

the field.

At minimum, grabbing Richardson would be a big upgrade over the current backups, giving

the Packers better insurance heading into the season.
