The Indianapolis Colts are back to square one at quarterback. On Wednesday, the team traded Carson Wentz to the Washington Commanders for multiple draft picks. For years, the Colts have tried desperately to find a replacement for Andrew Luck, who unexpectedly retired before the 2019 season. After four straight seasons with a new starting quarterback, Indianapolis is now back in the market, and the Green Bay Packers may have an intriguing option available.
When Aaron Rodgers announced he would return to Green Bay for an 18th season, Jordan Love got put into an even more difficult predicament than he was already in. Love has spent the last two seasons as a backup and may never get a shot to lead the team that used a first-round pick to select him.
Love saw his first action in 2021, appearing in six games, including one start. He completed 58 percent of his passes for 411 yards, two touchdowns, and three interceptions. Even though the back-to-back MVP is set to return, the Packers could decide to hold on to Love. Every team needs a formidable backup, and no one knows when Rodgers will retire.
