The Packers are not likely to use the franchise tag on backup quarterback Matt Flynn in order to engineer a sign-and-trade scenario, according to a report. Under league rules, Green Bay could apply the franchise tag to Flynn and then trade him rather than simply letting him become a free agent. "(The Packers) don't do business that way," a league source said. It's prohibited for teams to agree to such a deal before the franchise tag deadline, and one unnamed NFL team executive said that would be farther than Ted Thompson is willing to go. "(Thompson) doesn't bend the rules," the executive said.
