Love Shares Reaction About Rodgers’s Contract Extension

As the next few months kick into full steam for the 2022 NFL season, Jordan Love will find himself in a familiar place as the Packers backup quarterback to Aaron Rodgers.

Love, who is entering his third season, appeared in six games last season for Green Bay and started one game for the Packers when Rodgers was out due to COVID-19 or injuries. While the 23-year-old wants to be a starting quarterback one day, he knew when Green Bay signed Rodgers to a contract extension in March that he would remain as the backup signal caller.

“Super happy for Aaron [Rodgers]… The dude deserves it, obviously what he has done the last two years,” Love told reporters on Wednesday. “I was happy for Aaron, but at the same time, I was like ah, you know.”
