Jordan Love crumbles under relentless pressure

Jordan Love

GB Quarterback #10

Player Stats

Jordan Love completed 28-of-53 passes for 312 yards, two touchdowns, and one interception in the Packers’ 35-14, Week 3 loss to the Falcons.

Love was completely overrun by consistent pressure throughout on a night the Packers attempted 53 passes to just eight running back carries. The Atlanta defensive line took advantage of mounting injuries and ineffective play along the Green Bay offensive line to disrupt any offensive rhythm for the Packers. Love’s two touchdowns went to his top two options through the air in Christian Watson and Matthew Golden, the latter of whom notched the first regular season touchdown of his young career late in the fourth quarter. Matt LaFleur, Love, and the rest of the Packers have some significant work to do if they are to save their quickly sinking season. Love falls to a middling QB2 ahead of a road matchup with an aggressive Buccaneers defense in Week 4.

Jordan Love

GB Quarterback #10

Personalize your Rotoworld feed by favoriting players

Jordan Love completed 16-of-29 passes for 145 yards and two touchdowns in the Packers’ 20-17, Week 2 win over the Jets.

Love also ran in a touchdown in the fourth quarter, but it was called back because of a holding penalty. This game was played in a consistent drizzle, but the rain was not coming down hard enough to excuse why the Packers’ offense gained just 199 total yards. They committed 14 penalties and seemed incapable of making big plays, with just one play gaining at least 20 yards all day. Love took some deep shots down the field to Matthew Golden, but there weren’t many near misses to hang your hat on, and the offensive line didn’t hold up really well in pass protection. The good news is that the Packers will face a fairly mediocre Falcons defense in Week 3, so Love can be used in most fantasy leagues in that one.
Jordan Love

GB Quarterback #10

Jordan Love completed 21-of-42 passes for 387 yards, two touchdowns, and one interception in the Packers’ 22-39, Week 1 loss to the Vikings.

With Kyler Murray exiting this game early, the Packers appeared to be coasting to an easy win until the fourth quarter. Minnesota, however, slowly mounted a comeback that coincided with Love melting down. It started with a fumble that Minnesota took back to the one-yard line. Love got the ball back after a Jordan Mason touchdown and was immediately intercepted on his own side of the field, extinguishing any hope of a rebuttal from the Packers. Some garbage time production turned this into a strong fantasy outing from Love, but he will need to clear things up ahead of Week 2. Love will be in the QB2 mix versus the Jets.
Jordan Love

GB Quarterback #10

ESPN’s Brooke Pryor reports that Packers QB Jordan Love will start in the team’s preseason Week 1 game against the Steelers.

Although a potential, albeit brief, matchup against Steelers QB Aaron Rodgers is intriguing, the Packers’ wide receiver rotation is the real reason to tune in. Packers WR Christian Watson should be the team’s top target earner this season, and Love said WR Matthew Golden is set to assume X-receiver duties. Will slot WR Jayden Reed get to take snaps in two-receiver sets? That is to be determined.
Jordan Love

GB Quarterback #10

Jordan Love said the “biggest difference” for the Packers’ offense in 2026 will be its “ability to finish.”

You, of course, cannot simply flip a switch and “finish better,” but it remains notable that the Packers’ players and coaches have spent the entire offseason and summer pledging to avoid the late-game collapses that have so often plagued them in recent seasons. It would appear coach Matt LaFleur and company are dead serious about changing their mindset. That is always easier said than done, but offensive balance just for the sake of it looks like it might be out the window in Green Bay this season. Hopefully the same will be true of taking the air out of the ball the second they have a second half lead. Again, it would be far from surprising if nothing really changes, but it is rare you will hear a team have these kinds of conversations out in the open. A more aggressive mindset would obviously only mean good things in fantasy football.

The Packers will face the Bears on Christmas Day.

This is one of two games being played on Christmas, which is the Friday of Week 16. The Packers beat the Bears in Week 14 of the 2025 season before losing their final four regular season contests, one of which was an overtime loss to the Bears. They were then bounced from the playoffs by Chicago in the Wild Card Round. Their Christmas matchup will have major playoff implications and could even determine the winner of the NFC North.
Jordan Love

GB Quarterback #10

Packers head coach Matt LaFleur said the team would “strip everything down” on offense in 2026.

During a Monday interview LaFleur said Green Bay would “strip everything down and start like it’s Year 1 all over again” on the offensive side of the ball a year after the Packers had the NFL’s fourth highest EPA per play and fifth highest offensive success rate. “I just think reinstalling and trying to go through — it might take a little bit more time — but really get into the detail because that’s usually the separator,” LaFleur said. It’s an interesting offseason tidbit that would lead to a new-look Green Bay offense under Jordan Love in 2026. That could mean a slightly less run heavy approach, perhaps, after the Packers had the seventh lowest pass rate over expected in 2025. The Packers will likely be forced to increase WR Matthew Golden’s role after losing Romeo Doubs to New England in free agency.
Jordan Love

GB Quarterback #10

Packers GM Brian Gutekunst said Jordan Love did not require any offseason surgeries or procedures.

Love underwent surgery on his left thumb during training camp ahead of the 2025 season. The issue cropped up in the middle of the year but never seemed to cause him much trouble. Love also injured his non-throwing shoulder. He, again, did not miss any time. Love has battled through numerous injuries over the past two seasons. The good news is that, as of now, none of them are lingering into 2026. He should have a normal offseason routine as he and the Packers look to avenge their Wild Card Round loss to the Bears.
Jordan Love

GB Quarterback #10

Jordan Love completed 24-of-46 passes for 323 yards with four touchdowns in the Packers’ 31-27, Wild Card Round loss to the Bears.

Love’s stats are fine — even if the completion percentage leaves a bit to be desired — but could have been even bigger if not for some passes that should have been caught by the Green Bay receiving corps. The signal-caller helped the Packers build a 21-3 lead in the first half, but there wasn’t much offensive success in the final 30 minutes. The 27-year-old’s season is over after throwing for 3,381 yards with a 23/6 TD/INT ratio over 15 games, and while there were some frustrating moments in 2025, it’s hard to complain about the production. Love will be back in Green Bay in 2026 barring something unforeseeable, and he’ll be deserving of QB1 consideration in drafts next year.
Malik Willis

GB Quarterback #2

Packers declared QB Malik Willis, LB Quay Walker, RB Josh Jacobs, WR Dontayvion Wicks, S Xavier McKinney, OL Zach Tom, and LB Edgerrin Cooper inactive for Week 18 against the Vikings.

With little to play for, the Packers will rest key starters ahead of the postseason, including Jordan Love, though he was cleared to suit up for Week 18. Willis will sit, leaving Clayton Tune as the Packers’ starter against a tough Minnesota defense that will likely overwhelm the third year pro. Emmanuel Wilson could function as the Packers’ lead back with Jacobs inactive. JJ McCarthy and the Vikings will likely face second and third stringers on Green Bay’s defense.
Jordan Love

GB Quarterback #10

Packers coach Matt LaFleur said Jordan Love (concussion) has been cleared for Week 18 against the Vikings, but Clayton Tune will start.

Love is practicing in full and out of the concussion protocol. The Packers are locked in as the No. 7 seed in the NFC, giving them nothing to play for in Week 18. Love will be one of several starters who get the week off. LaFleur told reporters the team hasn’t made a decision on Tune’s backup versus Minnesota. Malik Willis is dealing with shoulder and hamstring issues. He could be inactive as the team’s third quarterback, with Love holding the clipboard for Tune on Sunday.

NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport said “it seems like” 49ers WR Mike Evans (hip) “has a pretty good chance” to play in Week 3 against the Cardinals.

Rapoport made the statement, and then immediately referenced 49ers coach Kyle Shanahan’s comments earlier this week, when he said Evans had a “good” chance to play this week, so it is unclear if Rapoport is actually breaking news. That said, no news is good news. If the NFL Network star had learned something contradictory, we would have heard about it. Evans returned to practice in a limited capacity today. Stay tuned for updates and treat him as a WR2 for the time being.

NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport reports that Commanders QB Jayden Daniels (elbow) is unlikely to play in Week 4 against the Colts.

Frankly, this report comes off as more of a recap than breaking news. The Commanders do not yet know when Daniels will return, though they are optimistic that he will miss fewer than four games. According to Rapoport, the goal is to get him back “as soon as possible” and “as safe as possible.” Backup QB

Dolphins WR Chris Bell (knee) was removed from the injury report and will play in Week 3 against the Chiefs.

Bell upgraded to full participation on Friday after two limited sessions. The rookie wide receiver has been bothered by fluid and soreness in his surgically repaired knee since Week 1, so the Dolphins have limited his snaps in-game. With fellow rookie WR Caleb Douglas (ankle) sidelined for Week 3, the coaching staff could draw up a couple of extra plays with Bell in mind, though he can only be viewed as a WR4.

MarShawn Lloyd

GB Running Back #32
Player Stats

MarShawn Lloyd played on 22.7 percent of the offensive snaps in the Packers’ Week 3 loss to the Falcons.

The Packers largely played in a trailing game script last night. Lloyd does not have meaningful access to passing down snaps, logging just one snap on third down and none in the two-minute drill, making him mostly dependent on decent rushing workloads. He played 45.5 percent of the red zone snaps and took the lone snap inside the five-yard line, but was held out of the end zone. Lloyd’s six touches led the backfield, but are hardly enough to keep him locked in 12-team FLEX spots.

Eagles WR DeVonta Smith (hamstring) resumed practicing on Friday.

Smith was back at practice, logging a limited session, after sitting out yesterday. The Eagles’ WR1 is on track to play, but hamstring injuries can be finicky. This is worth tracking closely. The Bears have fielded a very fantasy-friendly pass defense thus far, making this a favorable matchup for the Eagles’ passing attack.
