GREEN BAY, Wis. -- Could the Green Bay Packers be a possible landing spot for former Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Josh Freeman?
Well, there's a connection between Freeman, who was released on Thursday in an ugly ending with the Bucs, and the Packers.
Packers running backs coach Alex Van Pelt was Freeman's position coach with the Bucs in 2010 and 2011 before he came to Green Bay in 2012.
Packers coach Mike McCarthy wouldn't comment on whether Green Bay might be interested in Freeman but if he was looking for an endorsement from Van Pelt, he got one.
