Packers News: Jordan Love Turning Things Around at Green Bay Minicamp

It's been a whirlwind of a week for Green Bay Packers quarterback Jordan Love at the team's minicamp. Over the past couple of days, reports have flooded out of Packers' minicamp about Love's disappointing performances to kick off the week.

One report mentioned that Love was favoring check-down passes yesterday because of his inability/lack of confidence in hitting open receivers down field. Well, it looks like things have taken a full 180 on Wednesday as Love put together perhaps his best stretch in a Packers uniform.

What a stretch for Jordan Love:

* Wheel route to AJ Dillon right sideline for 30 yards.

* Free play deep to Lazard for 45.

* Deep corner route to Juwann Winfee for 30.

* Deep sideline to Aaron Jones for 30.

He was so ? that TE coach Justin Outten started fanning him.

Jordan Love leads a nice 70-yard, 10-play TD drive during two-minute drill. He was 7-for-10 passing, finishing with a TD pass over the middle to Allen Lazard, who made an acrobatic leaping grab.

Jordan Love Packers

According to the Packers beat reporters present at minicamp on Wednesday, Love's performance was so fantastic that tight end coach Justin Outten was literally fanning him off. This included a number of beautiful throws such as his deep sideline toss to running back Aaron Jones for 30 yards and a deep ball to wide receiver Allen Lazard for 45 yards.

Packers fans still have no concrete answer on whether or not superstar Aaron Rodgers will be the No. 1 starter under center next season. But, at the very least, it's promising to see some growth already out of second-year man Love.
