Jordan Love Praises Aaron Rodgers Ahead of Preseason Game

Jordan Love is scheduled to participate in the Green Bay Packers' first preseason game on Thursday night. The Pittsburgh Steelers have not confirmed whether Aaron Rodgers will take the field.

Rodgers, who has announced this will be his final season, may only face his former team again if both teams reach the Super Bowl, as they are not on the regular season schedule. Love, who spent three seasons learning from Rodgers before his trade to the Jets in 2023, expressed appreciation for the guidance he received.

Love noted that Rodgers aimed to provide a better mentorship experience than he received from Brett Favre. He acknowledged the challenges of transitioning from a long-time player like Rodgers and emphasized his focus on performing well for the team. Rodgers expressed disappointment that the preseason game is not being held in Green Bay, as he will not have the opportunity to play at Lambeau Field as an opponent.
