Young was drafted by the Tennessee Titans with the third overall pick in 2006, but will have to try and sign on with another team or sit out another year.

Young played in all four Packers preseason games and was 14 of 30 passes for 144 yards in their final game against the Chiefs.

The Packers are going with two quarterbacks on their roster.  Pro-Bowler Aaron Rodgers and backup quarterback B.J. Coleman.
