One day after trading for Malik Willis, the Packers have released both of their young backup quarterbacks, Sean Clifford and Michael Pratt.
GREEN BAY, Wis. – The Green Bay Packers have released quarterbacks Sean Clifford and Michael Pratt, sources told Packers on SI, as part of their 53-man roster cut on Tuesday.
With such a short turnaround between the trade and the Week 1 game against the Philadelphia Eagles in Brazil on Sept. 6, there’s a good chance that Clifford will be elevated from the practice squad to be the No. 2 quarterback until Willis has a firm grasp of the playbook. “It’s not my decision to have,” Clifford said when asked after Saturday’s final preseason game if he thought he’d done enough to win the No. 2 job.
