Is Jordan Love the future? Packers CEO says it may take ‘at least half a season’ to find out

Associated Press  

GREEN BAY, Wis. — Green Bay Packers president/CEO Mark Murphy says it will probably take “at least half a season” for the team to know what it has in new starting quarterback Jordan Love. “Comparing it a little bit to Aaron’s first year as a starter, yeah, I’d say at least half a season to know,” Murphy said Monday after the NFL’s lone publicly owned team held its annual shareholders meeting. While talking to the 7,825 shareholders who attended Monday’s meeting and the 1,200 who streamed it online, Murphy said “it was the right time” to make a change at quarterback and praised general manager Brian Gutekunst for his negotiations with the Jets and for making the decision to draft Love four years ago. There’s an old saying in the NFL, the best time to draft a quarterback is when you don’t need one.” The crowd of shareholders applauded when Murphy paid tribute to Rodgers and called him “one of the greatest players in the history of the Packers.” Gutekunst’s comment that Love is “ready to make his mark in the National Football League after patiently waiting his turn” received a similar reception.
