Should the Packers cut Tim Boyle?

The Packers have already made it clear Deshon Kizer is going to be the 2nd string QB behind Rodgers by having him only take 2 series today and Kizer has been lights out so far in the pre-season going 13/23 for 172 yards and 1 TD and 0 INT's in 2 games. Tim Boyle with more than twice as many snaps took than Kizer still has thrown only 147 yards barely moving the offense.

It seems to me Boyle is competing with Manny Wilkins for the practice squad/ 3rd string QB spot.

I believe the packers know what they have in Boyle which is a below average QB. Should the packers cut him and give Wilkins the 3rd string spot?

    I don't know where you get your info that Kizer is got a lock on the job.Either way ya don't just cut a QB ya try and trade him first.Practice squad is an option but remember any team can offer a practice squad player a contract.

    Yes, based on his performance in football during this preseason, I believe that the Green Bay Packers should cut Tim Boyle.

    They should not cut him yet. They should give him another chance to prove himself on the field. Brett Favre started out slow in his career, before he got really good at it.

    Right now, each team can have 90 players so why cut him. It’s not like he’s taking up a valuable roster spot. Even if he’s meant to be on the practice squad, it doesn’t hurt to give him some experience in case Rodgers or kizer gets hurt and he gets promoted to the pro team.
