Ever since the Packers selected him in the first round of the 2020 NFL draft, Green Bay fans knew the day would come when Jordan Love would take the reigns and become the franchise’s new starting quarterback. With the imminent Aaron Rodgers trade to the Jets, that day seems like it’s finally near.
When talking to reporters Tuesday at the annual league meetings in Phoenix, coach Matt LaFleur addressed the impending change under center and wanted to be clear that he doesn’t have unrealistic expectations for his new starting signal-caller.
“It’s going to be a different role for him, certainly, and I think we all have to kind of temper our expectations for him,” LaFleur said, per NFL Network. “It’s different when you’re going into a game versus when you’re starting a game. It’s going to be a process, but it’s gonna be exciting for him, for us.”
