Packer Nation will be thrilled to have football back Saturday when Green Bay hosts the New York Jets in its preseason opener. And that game became a little more interesting when Packers head coach Matt LaFleur announced Tuesday that quarterback Jordan Love and Green Bay’s starters would be playing.

Jordan Love patiently waited his turn behind Aaron Rodgers before taking on the starting role for the Packers. In a recent piece with the Players Tribune, he revealed that he almost gave up football for good.
