What did Jordan Love say about Aaron Rodgers?
Among the dozens of questions for the quarterback was his opinion on his mentor’s choices with the COVID-19 situation. Essentially, Jordan Love was shocked, but not dumbfounded.
Love had already known that one person that had tested positive for COVID-19 in the days leading up to Rodgers’ diagnosis, so he was preparing for positive tests. Love’s mind may have been thinking of the 2020 regular-season game that saw the Denver Broncos’ entire quarterback room catch COVID-19, which eventually led to the team repurposing a wide receiver for the role.
However, the Packers escaped with their backup quarterback remaining intact. Love is not just any backup quarterback. He is expected to be the eventual long-term replacement for Aaron Rodgers. Rodgers will be turning 38 in under a month and his future with the team is ambiguous, to say the least.
Sunday’s game will be the first look the NFL will get at Love in a regular season game. Packers fans will undoubtedly be tuning in nervously. Will Jordan Love hit the ground running? Head Coach Matt LaFleur was cautiously optimistic, keeping expectations manageable.
He said:
The Rodgers-less Packers will face Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs on Sunday. The game will be played during the mid-slot of games. Kickoff will be at 4:25 PM ET.
