It took a week after the tryout, but Elgersma is now officially on Green Bay’s roster.

The Green Bay Packers clearly had a plan coming out of rookie minicamp two weekends ago. Last Monday, the team released wide receiver Tulu Griffen in order to open up a spot on their 91-man roster, and reading between the lines of comments from the team’s coaches, it seemed all but a sure thing that quarterback Taylor Elgersma would take his place.

In fact, a report from a Canadian sports broadcaster last Wednesday indicated that Elgersma would sign with the Packers. It has evidently taken more than a week since his original tryout, but he has now finally signed with the Packers, as his agent confirmed to NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero .

Elgersma was originally scheduled to participate in the Buffalo Bills ’ rookie minicamp this past weekend but did not do so, instead choosing to stay in Green Bay. Now, Elgersma will be the fourth member of the Packers’ quarterback room, and he will work alongside Jordan Love, Malik Willis, and Sean Clifford during the remainder of the Packers’ offseason program. That program consists of OTA practices the two weeks following Memorial Day and minicamp the week of June 9th.

A big (and big-armed) quarterback, Elgersma was the most notable tryout player at the Packers’ rookie camp on May 3rd and 4th and has clearly been on the team’s radar throughout the spring. After winning the Hec Crighton Trophy in 2024 as the best player in Canadian college football, Elgersma took an official pre-draft visit to Green Bay prior to going undrafted in the 2025 NFL Draft last month.

Elgersma was not entirely undrafted, however, as the Winnipeg Blue Bombers selected him 18th overall in the second round of the CFL draft.

In all likelihood, Elgersma will compete with Sean Clifford this summer for the role as the Packers’ third quarterback behind Love and Willis. Shortly before final cuts last year, Green Bay acquired Willis in a trade with the Tennessee Titans , waiving Clifford — who backed up Love in 2023 — and signing him to the practice squad as the #3 option.

He probably has a higher ceiling than Clifford. The advantage of Clifford he is capable of stepping in a running the team in a pinch.

beast (9-May) : Technically, the I in FIB stands for Italian now, Si?

dfosterf (8-May) : I never thought I'd live long enough to call a pope a FIB, but here we are

Martha Careful (8-May) : Chicago produces a pope before it produces a 4000 yard passing quarterback

wpr (8-May) : HAHAHA Mucky Comment of the day.

Mucky Tundra (8-May) : According to reports, Mel Kiper is furious that Sanders wasn't selected as the new Pope

Martha Careful (5-May) : Yes, in the military S2’s work on IPB, PERCEC, PHYSEC and IO

dfosterf (4-May) : FYI civilian companies swipe the S2 designation from the military. S2 is the intelligence branch up to brigade level. G2 is division level.

dfosterf (4-May) : Google it. Make sure to tack NFL on it or you will get the military meaning

Zero2Cool (4-May) : S2?

beast (4-May) : Seems like the S2 has a love/hate relationship with professional scouts.

beast (4-May) : In theory, the S2 test how quickly a QBs brain can solve game like issues and how quickly they can do it.

dfosterf (4-May) : Are you gentlemen and at least one lady familiar with the S2 cognition

Zero2Cool (4-May) : Maybe there isn't an issue.

beast (4-May) : NFL really needs to fix their position labeling issue, but I don't think they care

Zero2Cool (1-May) : Packers did not activate the fifth-year options for linebacker Quay Walker, with the goal of signing him to a contract extension.

Zero2Cool (1-May) : Matthew Golden spoke with Randall Cobb before draft. Looked like chance encounter.

packerfanoutwest (1-May) : from a head left turn?

packerfanoutwest (1-May) : someone drunk?

Zero2Cool (1-May) : Unlikely.

dfosterf (30-Apr) : How long until Jeff Sperbeck's family sues John Elway ?

Zero2Cool (30-Apr) : Packers are exercising the fifth-year option on DT Devonte Wyatt, locking in a guaranteed $12.9M for the 2026 season.
