The Facts:
The Green Bay Packers would like to bring back tight end Andrew Quarless, but it might not be easy. The former fifth-round draft pick from Penn State already is drawing plenty of interest on the free-agent market, according to his agent, Chris Cabot, who said Monday that he has had discussions with the Packers and seven other NFL teams about Quarless since the free-agent negotiating period opened on Saturday.

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
The 6-4, 252-pound Quarless is coming off a season in which he set career highs in receptions (32), yards (312) and touchdowns (two). He became the Packers' starting tight end after Jermichael Finley's season-ending neck injury on Oct. 20. Cabot did not name any of the seven other teams who have inquired about his client, but among those believed to be interested in Quarless are the New York Giants, where former Packers assistant coach Ben McAdoo is the new offensive coordinator. McAdoo was Quarless’ position coach in 2010 and 2011 before moving over to quarterbacks coach. Until 4 p.m. ET on Tuesday, only the Packers can sign Quarless. If a deal can't be reached by then, Quarless would be free to sign with another team.
