Malik Willis Expected to Depart Packers in Free Agency, Seek Starting Role

Green Bay Packers GM Brian Gutekunst confirmed Wednesday that Malik Willis is expected to depart in free agency this March, seeking a team where he can compete for a starting quarterback job. The 2022 third-round pick is anticipated to be highly sought after, having performed well in relief of Jordan Love over the past two seasons. Across 11 combined regular-season appearances in 2024-2025, Willis completed 70 of 89 pass attempts (78%) for 972 yards, six touchdowns, and zero interceptions. He also added 261 rushing yards and three scores on 42 carries, establishing himself as a high-upside free agent.
