Should the Green Bay Packers add the controversial quarterback to the roster in light of the potentially season-ending injury to Aaron Rodgers?

Doug Russell explores football-related reasons why they may want to if the temporary incumbent, Brett Hundley, doesn't get the job done - especially if Aaron Rodgers can return later this year and the Packers are still in playoff contention.

That scenario played out in 2013 for the Packers when Rodgers went down with a different collarbone injury. Seneca Wallace and Scott Tolzien failed to get the job done, so the Packers added former backup Matt Flynn to the roster. He kept Green Bay in the race until Rodgers returned to lead them to the playoffs.
