Sean Clifford

25-Year-Old QuarterbackQB
Green Bay Packers
2023 Fantasy Outlook
A four-year starter at Penn State, Clifford was selected by Green Bay in the fifth round of this year's draft. That may have been a bit higher than expected considering he'll turn 25 years old in July and isn't known for his arm talent, but he fits the bill for the Packers, who value his leadership skills and athleticism and are in need of a backup behind first-year starter Jordan Love. Journeyman Danny Etling is the only other quarterback on the roster, so Clifford will get the opportunity to open the season directly behind Love on the depth chart. Read Past Outlooks
RANKS
$Signed a four-year, $4.16 million contract with the Packers in May of 2023.
Spends season as backup
QBGreen Bay Packers
January 23, 2024
Clifford completed one pass for 37 yards and had three carries for minus-2 yards over two appearances in the 2023 regular season.
ANALYSIS
Clifford spent his entire rookie season backing up Jordan Love, and he made brief appearances in both Weeks 1 and 17 and another in Green Bay's playoff opener. With Love perhaps receiving a lucrative extension over the offseason, Clifford is well-positioned to remain a cost-effective backup.
