In a shocking turn of events, the Green Bay Packers traded a mere seventh-round draft pick to the Titans for Malik Willis. Little did anyone know that in less than a month, Willis would already have two victories under his belt as the Packers’ starting quarterback. The surprising success of Willis has left the football world buzzing with excitement.
Packers head coach Matt LaFleur is in awe of Willis’ rapid rise to success. LaFleur emphasized, “I just cannot articulate the job that he’s done in a short period of time. People can’t fathom that. I promise you, you guys don’t get it. I know you think you got it, but you don’t get it. What he’s been able to do, I’ve never seen something like this.”
In his two appearances as a starter, Willis has displayed remarkable skill on the field. He has completed an impressive 25 of 33 passes for 324 yards, along with two touchdowns and zero interceptions. Not only that, but Willis has also showcased his versatility by rushing 12 times for 114 yards and scoring a touchdown on the ground. His performance has been nothing short of stellar, leading the Packers to a perfect 2-0 record with him at the helm.
The impact that Willis has had on the team in such a short amount of time is beyond what anyone could have anticipated. When the Packers made the trade for Willis, they could only dream of the success that he would bring to their season. Now, with Willis as their quarterback, the Packers find themselves in the midst of a promising journey towards greater heights.
