We don't need to rehash it all, but the Green Bay Packers were practically forced to let quarterback Malik Willis walk this offseason. Yet, the doubts about his success being a product of head coach Matt LaFleur linger, a theory that pivoting to Jimmy Garoppolo could quickly debunk.
The Packers are stuck between a rock and a hard place trying to replace what they lost in Willis. He effectively priced himself out of their range and into a starting job — albeit an uninspiring one — with the Miami Dolphins. His presence allowed them not just to keep the ship afloat but to remain competitive whenever starter Jordan Love wasn't available; could Garoppolo do that?
