On Wednesday, the Green Bay Packers and 2020 first-round pick out Jordan Love reached an agreement on a rookie contract.
According to NFL Network's Mike Garafolo, Love's deal is for 4 years and reasonably over $12.383 million, with a signing bonus of approximately $6.56 million. Garafolo famous that the contract could also be absolutely assured.
The Packers traded up by means of the Miami Dolphins and decided on the Utah State quarterback with the 26th overall selection. The pick out came as a wonder to many, since Green Bay already has one of the league's easiest quarterbacks in Aaron Rodgers. Not simplest that, but many scouts and analysts did not assume Love would move in the first around at all.
Although Rodgers latter did not seem like a two-time MVP ultimate season, he excelled in a recreation manager-like position and helped the Packers win 13 video games, en path to an NFC Championship Game appearance.
Green Bay fell to the San Francisco 49ers through a final ranking of 37-20. Many believed that the Packers would use their first-round select to find some other receiver for Rodgers, however they as an alternative made up our minds to use it on his successor - despite the fact that No. 12 signed a four-year contract extension two years in the past.

Rodgers is in a equivalent state of affairs as Brett Favre, the person he sooner or later replaced in Green Bay, 15 years ago. Although the Packers already had a long run Hall of Famer quarterback, they made up our minds to use their 2005 first-round select on Rodgers.
Three years later, Rodgers changed into the starter, and he is emerged as some of the highest quarterbacks in the sport. In an ideal international, he's going to play at a top level for a couple of more years. When the time comes, Love can take over as the starter.
That's taken with another day, however. Rodgers is indubitably the beginning quarterback right here in 2020, and most likely much longer. But it doesn't lend a hand to have a succession plan in place, as we saw with Favre and Rodgers. Only time will inform if Love takes over because the starter soon sufficient, or if he's going to have to wait a long duration.
