Packers tried to keep them. The Bills signed him off their practice squad. Brohm had to think he had a chance to play in Buffalo. Nice move for Buffalo.
http://www.jsonline.com/blogs/sports/70434227.htmlGreen Bay – Brian Brohm is no longer a member of the Green Bay Packers’ organization.
And this time that was his choice.
On the practice squad since being cut by the Packers at the final roster cutdown before the regular season, Brohm was signed Wednesday night by the Buffalo Bills to their active roster, a source said.
The Packers had an open roster spot after waiving wide receiver Jake Allen and attempted to retain Brohm by offering the same two-year deal as the Bills did. But in the end, the Packers’ second-round pick in 2008 thought it best to go to a team searching for a quarterback, not stay on one that has its long-term answer at the position in Aaron Rodgers.
Brohm also gets a chance to be reunited with Eric Wood, Brohm’s center when the two were at the University of Louisville together. Wood was the Bill’s second first-round pick in the ’09 draft.
