The Oakland Raiders recently parted ways with Matt Flynn less than a season after signing him to be their starting quarterback. There's since been speculation on where Flynn could land, and one of those potential places was Green Bay, Flynn's former team. However, Packers head coach Mike McCarthy all but shot that speculation down yesterday, telling reporters -- including Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com -- that he's comfortable with his current quarterback situation.
The Packers are using Wallace as their No. 2 behind starter Aaron Rodgers. They are the only two quarterbacks the team is carrying on its roster.

“Personally, I’m very happy with the quarterback room, the way it looks, the people in it,” Packers coach Mike McCarthy said Monday. “Obviously Matt was a Packer, very fond of Matt and his time here. As far as any roster moves and things like that, I really don’t have any comment on, but I do like Seneca Wallace. I like what he’s done since he’s been here. I feel very good about our quarterback room.”
Flynn began his career with the Packers, and he went on to receive a significant pay day after only two impressive starts. Those appearances were enough to garner a three-year, $26 million contract from the Seattle Seahawks, but Flynn wouldn't start a game under that contract. He was beat out by current starter Russell Wilson and he was eventually traded to the Raiders where he's been beat out by Terrelle Pryor.
It's hard to say where Flynn will land next, but he likely won't be handed a starting job anytime soon. Considering the quarterback situation around the NFL, Flynn is likely to continue his career somewhere as a backup, hoping that he has another opportunity to impress.
