Green Bay - Quarterback Aaron Brooks, who has had a long relationship with Green Bay coach Mike McCarthy, was one of six players in town Tuesday for tryouts with the Packers.
Brooks, 31, has been out of football since being waived Feb. 22 by the Oakland Raiders.
In 1999, McCarthy was the Packers' quarterbacks coach when they drafted Brooks in the fourth round from Virginia. Last season, he posted a 0-8 record for the Raiders and a passer rating of 61.7, the worst of his career.
The next year, the Packers traded Brooks to New Orleans, where McCarthy was the new offensive coordinator.
Brooks started five games in 2000, then all 16 games in each of the next four seasons under McCarthy. His record as a starter is 38-52.
