Perhaps they could also be interested in Garoppolo.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Of course, Florio is just speculating there. But it&#8217;s easy to connect the dots between Garoppolo and the Packers. Many of his other suitors, such as the Raiders and Arizona Cardinals have gone in a different direction. A return to the Los Angeles Rams is a possibility, but Garoppolo will wait for the best opportunity available. With Green Bay in desperate need of a backup, maybe that opportunity comes with the Packers.<\/p>\n<p>If so, Garoppolo would be bringing two Super Bowl titles and 12 years of NFL experience to Green Bay. Over his 85 games total, the quarterback has gone 43-21 as a starter, throwing for 15,828 yards, 96 touchdowns and 52 interceptions.<\/p>\n<p>Ultimately, the Packers have gone all-in on Love. Their franchise will go as far as he does. But if an injury were to occur, Green Bay doesn&#8217;t want to fall out of the hunt. Adding a quarterback like Garoppolo to the mix gives the Packers a proven option under center no matter the situation.<\/p>\n<p>At this stage of the NFL offseason, most teams have their quarterback plans mostly figured out.
