Packers acquire QB Malik Willis from Titans, cut K Anders Carlson and place RB AJ Dillon on IR

Associated Press  

The Green Bay Packers got a new backup quarterback, lost their No. Green Bay acquired quarterback Malik Willis from the Tennessee Titans for a 2025 seventh-round draft pick and followed that up by cutting quarterbacks Sean Clifford and Michael Pratt. Before the Willis trade, Green Bay was lacking experienced candidates to back up Love, who signed a four-year, $220 million contract extension this summer after leading the Packers to an NFC divisional playoff appearance in his first year as starting quarterback. Clifford, 26, had gone 22 of 43 for 207 yards with one touchdown and an interception in Green Bay’s three preseason games. The Packers had selected Carlson out of Auburn in the sixth round of the 2023 draft to replace Mason Crosby, who had been Green Bay’s kicker since 2007 and set the franchise’s career scoring record.
