Former NFL star offers glowing opinion on Jordan Love ahead of Green Bay Packers test

Jordan Love is going to be just fine as the Green Bay Packers ' starting quarterback for years to come, according to former NFL wide receiver Keyshawn Johnson.

Love is preparing for his first season as the Packers' starting quarterback in what will be a new look offense with Aaron Rodgers ' imminent trade to the New York Jets believed to be inching closer. Receiver Allen Lazard has already departed the franchise, and Love will be relying on the likes of Christian Watson and Romeo Doubs to pick up where they left off after solid rookie seasons.

The 24-year-old quarterback has the full backing of head coach Matt LaFleur and general manager Brian Gutekunst, and that's not surprising after he was selected 26th overall by the Packers in the 2020 NFL Draft. But former Super Bowl champion and three-time Pro Bowl star Johnson is also a fan of the youngster.
