LaFleur Pulls Love After One Impressive Drive
22 Aug
Summary
- Jordan Love completed a touchdown pass to MarShawn Lloyd.
- The offense executed a 12-play scoring drive in Denver.
- Love is unlikely to play in the next preseason game.
Green Bay Packers coach Matt LaFleur's strategy involved giving his starting offense more extensive playing time in Denver. Following a successful 12-play, 63-yard touchdown drive, LaFleur decided he had seen sufficient progress from quarterback Jordan Love.
Love's performance included completing 5 of 7 passes for 56 yards and an 11-yard touchdown to MarShawn Lloyd. He also connected with Matthew Golden for a 19-yard gain on a critical fourth-and-1 play from the Denver 40-yard line.
This outing contrasted with Love's previous appearance in the first preseason game, where he went 3-for-5 for 18 yards on a drive that resulted in a field goal. Given Love's strong showing, he is unlikely to participate in the team's upcoming preseason finale.
