Packers are doing early draft homework as potential Malik Willis replacement options begin to emerge
The Green Bay Packers know the type of quarterback they want. Jordan Love is the franchise quarterback, so the team doesn't need to spend high draft capital on the position. However, with Malik Willis set to hit free agency,
"Willis has logged just 547 career snaps, but he showed enough in his lone start this season to draw significant interest as a free agent," PFF writes. "While the sample size is limited, he has produced a 4.8% big-time throw rate against a 1.8% turnover-worthy play rate over his career to date."
NFL rumors point to Malik Willis’ free agency drawing Brock Osweiler comparisons after his stint with the Green Bay Packers.
The Green Bay Packers are set at starting quarterback for the foreseeable future. It would seem that Jordan Love is set to continue the franchise’s long run of superb quarterback play, as he enjoyed the best season of his career in 2025.
The numbers being thrown around so far this offseason for Green Bay Packers QB Malik Willis have been solid. The backup quarterback is a free agent, and he's likely to get paid at a higher rate than anything the Packers could pay to keep him.
Now that we are in the NFL offseason, QB Malik Willis is going to be one of the big names to watch as far as familiar faces in new places. The Green Bay Packers’ backup and former third round pick could be an option for the Miami Dolphins.
Two franchises reportedly could be a great fit for Malik Willis' starting potential. The Green Bay Packers would undoubtedly love to keep him, but he's about to get paid as a free agent.
