BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues
ROSTERED IN: 31% of Leagues
ANALYSIS: Green Bay's "Jordan Love Era" got off to a strong start in Week 1, as Love impressed against the Chicago Bears in the 2023 season opener. The 24-year-old looked poised and in control of the Packers offense, completing 15 of 27 pass attempts for 245 yards and three touchdowns in Green Bay's Week 1 beatdown of the Bears.
While we're not quite ready to proclaim him Aaron Rodgers just yet, Love did outperform expectations in the season opener. He played turnover-free football despite not having the services of his best wide receiver, Christian Watson, against a soft Chicago defense.
All games won't be this easy for Love, though Packers head coach Matt LaFleur will likely continue to lean on Aaron Jones and a Green Bay rushing attack that looked dynamic in Week 1. Love certainly deserves to now be on fantasy radars ahead of a Week 2 matchup against the Atlanta Falcons. Those in deeper leagues and Superflex formats can give the youngster a look on the waiver wire.
