The way Mike McCarthy answered that question in his press conference, he would definitely have him back.

And that he had talked to him about it.

I mean, if you had talked to him about it and he said no, he wouldn't have said that that way.

You know, he'd have probably tried to couch it a little bit.

I mean, I don't know what ultimately Aaron Rodgers is going to decide to do, but it sure feels like that's looking like a likely possibility.

And, I mean, he has a great relationship with James Cameron, the new offensive line coach, and

It just seems like everything's coming together for an Aaron Rodgers return, and I don't think that precludes the idea of them trying to develop Will Howard.

This guy hasn't taken a single meaningful NFL rep yet.

So, I mean, it really feels just like a running back on his rookie year, get him in the preseason, give him a chance to win a backup job maybe, and see what happens.

Seems like a really smart guy, very passionate, kind of soft-spoken, which you don't normally get from a lot of these guys.

But there's still a lot of passion and knowledge there, even though it's not being screamed at you, but definitely a little bit of a gentler-voiced guy.

You can tell he was a quarterback.

He understands the position, I think, at a high level.

He was really hands-on with the three quarterbacks on his team, which in addition to Nussmeyer were Taylor Green from Arkansas and Luke Altmeyer from Illinois.

He was really hands-on with those guys.

They all spoke very highly of him.

Just being the coordinator at the Senior Bowl,

it's kind of a big deal.

Like they they're handpicking someone who is a position coach from around the NFL that they think has the potential to take that leap sooner rather than later.

And so I think he, I mean, you look at what he did with Spencer Rattler and Tyler Shuck.
