The Green Bay Packers are confident that quarterback Jordan Love is ascending in his development as a third-year player.
Love produced a terrific final practice against the Saints and will likely play a big chunk of the preseason game on Friday night at Lambeau Field.
“The steps are trending in the right direction, which is a nice thing to see,” general manager Brian Gutekunst said.
Gutekunst said he thinks Love is slowing the game down and playing with more anticipation, allowing him to “let it rip” more often.
“I think he’s progressing nicely, I think he’s taken some really significant steps, not only in the offense but his confidence in it,” Gutekunst said.
