    Don’t read much into Howard taking QB2 reps. It’s part of seeing if he is even on the roster in September.

    If he is not taking QB2 reps he is toast.

    Will Howard not being on the Roster by September would be one hell of a storyline for certain. Quite a bit would have to happen between now and then though. As stated though, today marks Day 1 of OTAs.


    Will be interesting to see how it all goes from here on out for certain.

    Training camp and the preseason games should be fun watching the two young QBs.

    Will Howard is the guy who could potentially be safely stashed on the practice squad depending on what he shows in preseason (or more precisely, what he doesn’t show).

    They will likely keep 9 OL it likely won't be sorted out until training camp.

    The discussion on the Fan tonight was that of course Rodgers and Allar are safe and it will be a battle between Rudolph and Howard for the backup QB. If Howard wins then Rudolph will be released but if Rudolph clearly outplays Will then Howard might be sent to the practice squad or a phantom injury to put him on IR again.
