Love is still waiting on a new deal.
Green Bay Packers quarterback Jordan Love will not participate in team practices until a new contract extension is finalized, Packers general manager Brian Gutekunst said Monday.
Gutekunst revealed that Love’s representation informed Green Bay of Love’s plans to stay off the field on Saturday. However, it is crucial to note this is not a typical holdout but rather a hold-in, a strategy used by NFL players to negotiate contracts while still reporting to training camp. Love remains in the Packers’ facility and will participate in meetings and other team activities outside of practice, per Gutekunst.
Love, 25, is entering a contract year and is expected to secure a lucrative extension after coming off a breakthrough campaign. The Utah State product threw for over 4,000 yards and recorded 32 touchdowns against 11 interceptions in 17 games last season, helping lead the Packers to an unlikely playoff berth in the post-Aaron Rodgers era.
Last offseason, the Packers decided against picking up Love’s fifth-year option and instead signed him to a one-year extension. Matt Schneidman ofrecently predicted that Love’s new deal could be “in the ballpark of four years and $224 million.”Kristen Wong is a staff writer on the Breaking and Trending News team at Sports Illustrated.
