Packers QB Jordan Love ‘getting back in the groove’
Team looking to smooth out its game, both individually and collectively
GREEN BAY – Packers quarterback Jordan Love feels good about his injured knee after playing one game on it, taking a couple of hits, and shaking off the rust that came from his down time and limited practice.
As the Packers get set to fly to Los Angeles for a Sunday matchup with the Rams, Love is in a better place with both his health and his play, and he’s resumed taking all the 11-on-11 snaps in practice to install the game plan.
“It looks like he’s just getting back in the groove,” Head Coach Matt LaFleur said after Wednesday’s non-padded workout. “Like I mentioned the other day, not that we want to throw 50-some odd times in a game, but I thought the more we threw, the better he got.”
The 54 pass attempts in the loss to the Vikings may not have been the idea going in, but it might’ve benefited Love’s comeback road in the bigger picture. He said he needed to regain the feel for the arm angles, route depths and other details that go into being precise and efficient, and cutting it loose in the second half after a rough first half helped in that regard.
He also came out fine physically despite a hit right on his injured left knee on a scramble up the middle.
