The 36-year-old started four games last season, throwing for 779 yards, five touchdowns and five interceptions. The backup has been needed several times in recent years with Love getting dinged up. He missed two games last year and two more in 2024. Last year’s backup, Malik Willis, signed with Miami as a free agent in March. Green Bay released Desmond Ridder to make room on the roster for Taylor.
