GREEN BAY, Wis. -- If Jordan Love doesn't end up with a new contract before next season, the Green Bay Packers quarterback at least has some assurances that his accomplishments in his first season as the starter will pay off.
That payoff, however, will be larger if the Packers (8-8) beat the Chicago Bears (7-9) on Sunday (4:25 p.m. ET, CBS), because it would secure a playoff spot.
That would trigger a group of escalators that could increase Love's base salary for the 2024 season by as much as $4 million, according to a source with access to the contract.
