Packers Sign Virginia Tech QB Kyron Drones as Undrafted Free Agent

The move adds a dual‑threat runner to a crowded backup competition behind Jordan Love.

Overview

  • Drones, signed Saturday after the draft, joins Green Bay as an undrafted free agent to compete in camp.
  • He enters a four‑quarterback room with starter Jordan Love plus Desmond Ridder and Kyle McCord.
  • At Virginia Tech in 2025, he completed 56.5% of his throws for 1,919 yards and 17 touchdowns and ran for 644 yards and nine scores.
  • Green Bay met with Drones before the draft, which helps explain the quick agreement once picks ended.
  • Reporting notes the signing does not rule out a veteran move, with Anthony Richardson or Will Levis mentioned as trade options to replace departed backup Malik Willis.
