Seemingly nothing is standing in the way of Green Bay Packers quarterback Jordan Love showing the progress he’s made entering his third season. Aaron Rodgers may not take a snap before the season opener, which prompted head coach Matt LaFleur to announce Love as the starting quarterback against the San Francisco 49ers on Friday. The hope is this year’s preseason won’t have any disruptions for Green Bay’s developmental quarterback.
Love’s first offseason was severely hampered by the COVID-19 pandemic. The league canceled all preseason activities for 2020 just as Love was entering his first NFL training camp. Love lost out on valuable game experience and was unable to be out Tim Boyle for the backup job. Subsequently, Love did not dress for a single game during his rookie season.
