Green Bay Packers general manager Brian Gutekunst said it's "very doubtful" that he would take trade calls for quarterback Jordan Love.

Blaine Gabbert An Option To Replace Tom Brady?

Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Blaine Gabbert could be the team's starting QB in 2022 if Tom Brady doesn't come out of retirement.
