One of the NFL’s ascending young players won’t yet be hitting the practice field as training camps begin.
Packers quarterback Jordan Love is seeking a lucrative long-term extension and will not be practicing with the team as it opens training camp, general manager Brian Gutekunst told reporters on Monday.Gutekunst added that he believed the two sides were “close” on a deal, and that Love was still around the team in Green Bay.
He was particularly exceptional in the second half of the season, ranking second in expected points added per play among all quarterbacks in that span.Buoyed by Love’s stellar year, the Packers reached the playoffs and crushed the No. 2 seed Dallas Cowboys in the wild-card round before going toe-to-toe with the eventual NFC champion San Francisco 49ers in the divisional round.
Earlier this offseason, quarterbacks Trevor Lawrence and Jared Goff each inked megadeals that established them at or above that threshold and as top-three players by salary in football.
