Packers Sign QB Kyle McCord to Reserve/Futures Deal

The former Syracuse record-setter gets an offseason shot after spending his rookie year on the Eagles’ practice squad.

Overview

  • McCord’s practice-squad contract expired when Philadelphia’s season ended, making him a free agent.
  • He was a 2025 sixth-round pick, waived after the preseason and retained on the practice unit.
  • In training camp he competed with Dorian Thompson-Robinson before Tanner McKee’s thumb fracture led to a trade for Sam Howell.
  • At Syracuse in 2024 he led the FBS with 4,779 passing yards and set school and ACC records, adding 34 touchdown passes.
  • The Green Bay agreement was reported Tuesday by national and team beat reporters as a reserve/futures signing with the NFC playoff club.
