On Tuesday, a former Green Bay Packers quarterback signed with an AFC contender. When Tim Boyle signed with the New York Jets this offseason, he felt he was joining an AFC playoff contender.
Instead, Rodgers tore his Achilles tendon, and the Jets offense has been in free fall ever since. Boyle was dismissed by the Jets in early December after failing to perform adequately in his two starts this season (360 yards, one touchdown, and four interceptions). But he’ll get another chance to join a playoff team.

According to NFL Network’s Mike Garafolo, the Houston Texans signed Boyle to the practice squad after he worked out with the team on Tuesday.
The former Packers quarterback will join an 8-6 Texans club that is tied for first place in the AFC South with the Jacksonville Jaguars and the Indianapolis Colts.
