**Green Bay Packers Sign LB TJ Quinn to Prove-It Deal** The Green Bay Packers have signed linebacker TJ Quinn to a modest $1.0M AAV contract, representing a calculated low-risk investment in the position. Quinn's Contract Value Index (CVI) grade of C+ reflects a deal that aligns appropriately with his current market value as a depth piece with upside potential. At this price point, the Packers are essentially getting a solid starter-level contributor without overcommitting financially, allowing Quinn to compete for meaningful snaps while maintaining roster flexibility. The signing demonstrates Green Bay's strategic approach to building linebacker depth through affordable acquisitions rather than premium investments. This contract structure gives both parties room to grow — Quinn gets an opportunity to prove his worth in a new system, while the Packers secure serviceable depth at a position of need without breaking the bank.
