In the 2020 NFL Draft, the Green Bay Packers used the 26th pick in the first round to select QB Jordan Love. For the first three seasons of his career, he sat on the bench and learned from Hall of Famer QB Aaron Rodgers. Along the way, Love learned valuable lessons from Rodgers and we saw him flourish in 2023.
That was Love’s first season as the full-time starting QB for Green Bay. He did not miss a single game during the regular season and started in both of the Packers’ playoff games in 2024. Ahead of his 2023 campaign, the Packers decided to decline Love’s fifth-year option. Instead, they gave him a one-year, $13.5 million deal for the 2024 season. According to Love, that’s not nearly enough for him to commit to playing for Green Bay in 2024.
Will the Packers be able to handle Jordan Love’s contract dispute before the 2024 season officially begins?

However, Love still showed up to OTA’s and is not letting his contract situation affect the rest of the team. That’s what you want from the leader of your team and Love is showing those qualities. Joel Corry of CBS Sports reported that Love is expected to sign a contract worth $50 million annually. That’s much higher than the $13.5 million he was set to be paid. We’ll have to wait and see if Green Bay is willing to give him that type of extension.
