The Green Bay Packers are hopeful of re-signing Matt Flynn to remain their backup quarterback.

Flynn couldn't match the potential he previously exhibited with the Packers during his stops with the Seattle Seahawks, Oakland Raiders and Buffalo Bills, but he was solid in his return to Green Bay with Aaron Rodgers out.

“I’d like to have Matt back,” McCarthy said. “I thought Matt was a good addition to our football team. I have great respect and admiration for him, just being around him a lot on a positional basis. Yeah, I’m hoping financially it works out.”
