As Jordan Love becomes the Packers’ starting quarterback heading into the 2023 season, he has had plenty of time to prepare for this moment. Love is entering his fourth season in the NFL, spending the first three backing up Aaron Rodgers.
While Love was on the sidelines, he got an opportunity to develop slowly in a way young quarterbacks rarely do now. Green Bay coach Matt LaFleur believes Love has made tremendous progress over the past year specifically, and he credits QB coach Tom Clements for that jump.
“Just watching him last year. I think Jordan’s made some huge strides,” LaFleur said, via NFL.com. “I really do, and I think a lot of it is a credit to Tom, and just, he knows how to train these guys. He knows how to drill them and he’s very, very consistent. He doesn’t sugarcoat anything. He just is matter of fact, and I think there’s no doubt.”
