Jordan Love Fantasy

Green Bay Packers general manager Brian Gutekunst hinted on Monday that quarterback Jordan Love could make some starts to close out the season, referring to "offseason decisions" awaiting him. Gutekunst said he does not need to see Love play more in the final four games to reach a solid evaluation of the young QB, and he thinks Love is ready to be a starting-caliber QB in the NFL. The Packers have yet to be mathematically eliminated from playoff contention, but there could be discussions for Love to play if that happen, something Rodgers said he'd approach with an "open mind" without holding bitterness or resentment. Rodgers is also dealing with bruised ribs and a fractured right thumb, so it would make sense to rest him if the Packers are eliminated. Green Bay has a bye in Week 14, but Love could make a couple starts to close out the 2022 season.

Green Bay Packers quarterback Jordan Love completed 6-of-9 passes for 113 yards and a score during the team's 40-33 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles. The former first-round pick entered the game in the fourth quarter with reigning MVP Aaron Rodgers (ribs) knocked out of the game. Love looked competent against the Eagles' secondary, tossing a 63-yard touchdown to wide receiver Christian Watson. However, this was late in the game, with Philadelphia up by multiple scores, so keep that in mind when looking at his stat line. The 24-year-old finished the night with nearly as many fantasy points as Rodgers and has a fantastic matchup against the Chicago Bears next week if given the nod to start. Monitor the practice reports this upcoming week to know of Rodgers' potential availability for Week 13, but know that Love will carry value as a potential streamer against Chicago if named the starter.

Green Bay Packers quarterback Jordan Love went 16-for-26 for 148 yards and threw one interception in Thursday's preseason loss to the Kansas City Chiefs. The third-year quarterback has seen his passer rating drop throughout the preseason, finishing with his lowest rating of 61.0% Thursday. Even after receiving praise from head coach Matt LaFleur this past week, Love has not given fantasy managers much confidence with his play during the last three preseason games. Suppose starting quarterback Aaron Rodgers were to miss any time during the regular season. In that case, fantasy managers should adjust expectations for players like Allen Lazard, Robert Tonyan, and even running back Aaron Jones, who should see plenty of work as a receiver. Love remains a hold in dynasty leagues but carries little upside at the moment.
