NFL Insider Issues Strong Statement on Packers Star Jordan Love

NFL insider Jay Glazer of Fox Sports believes Green Bay Packers QB Jordan Love is "elite" enough to win a Super Bowl. 

Love has turned into a solid QB under Matt LaFleur, but the Packers aren't paying Love to be solid. They are paying him to be a superstar. Love signed a massive four-year, $220 million contract with Green Bay in 2024.

"I don’t know about the rest of you all but every year I become more and more of a believer in Jordan Love," Glazer wrote on his X account. "Really impressed with his improvement as a player and definitely as a leader and how he is in the locker room. He’s definitely elite enough to win it one year. But that depends a lot on who’s around him."

Love finished last season with 3,381 passing yards and 23 passing touchdowns while completing 66.3% of his passes. The Packers went 9-7-1 and lost to the Chicago Bears in the wild-card round of the 2025 NFL playoffs. 

Love enters this season with 11,535 passing yards and 83 passing touchdowns. He's 27-20-1 as a starter. 

The Packers open the 2026 season against the Minnesota Vikings. It's time for Love to play like an MVP, especially since Micah Parsons will miss the start of the campaign while recovering from his ACL tear. 

Green Bay is 1-3 in the playoffs since Love took over for future Hall of Famer Aaron Rodgers. Both Rodgers and Brett Favre won a Super Bowl with the Packers, so Love is under pressure to follow in their footsteps. 

"My biggest thing that I've noticed since I got back is just my feet in the pocket, trying to be as smooth and consistent as possible," Love said. "When I go through my reads, get into my hitches and not getting antsy, not getting to that point where you're trying to move through the pocket too fast. Just staying calm, staying relaxed, move through my reads. If I've gotta move around in the pocket, keeping those movements pretty tight and not kind of running into where guys might be peeling off and able to hit you.

"So just really trying to focus on my feet, my pocket movements. Obviously I think all those things are tied to accuracy and just the timing of routes and things like that, so just trying to be as dialed in as possible. That's the biggest thing I've been trying to work on so far."
