The 1 ‘Massive Favor’ Jordan Love Did That Should Be Rewarded, Per NFL Insider
When the Green Bay Packers inked quarterback Jordan Love to a one-year extension deal worth $13.5 million in 2023, it was viewed by many as a value signing by the team. After all, instead of picking up their option on him worth $20.2 million, they managed to secure his services for at least the end of the 2024 season at a cheaper cost. But after playing like a star in just his first season as the franchise’s regular starter, it appears that Love deserves a bigger deal.
For NFL insider Dan Graziano of ESPN, Love already did the team a big favor by agreeing to that contract, so he also has to be reciprocated by the Green Bay Packers by giving him a much more lucrative one.
The Green Bay Packers Have A Jordan Love Decision To Make
The Packers can’t ignore the body of work Love put together in 2023. Love proved himself as a worthy successor to the legendary Aaron Rodgers. He’s remotely close to the level of play Rodgers displayed as a Packer, but Love managed to pass for 4,159 yards and 32 touchdowns on 64.2 percent completion rate while leading Green Bay to a playoff appearance many didn’t believe the team could pull off in Year 1 of the Post-Rodgers Era.
It will be interesting to follow the looming drama between Love and the Green Bay Packers, who may or may not be willing to pay the quarterback Joe Burrow type of money.
