GREEN BAY, Wis. – Three weeks of OTAs and next week’s minicamp will lay the foundation for new Green Bay Packers starting quarterback Jordan Love and his young receivers as they transition into the great unknown that is the 2023 NFL season.

“I’d say just the consistency of routes, receivers what they’re doing,” Love said on Tuesday of the biggest gains following eight of nine organized team activities. “I think everybody’s just doing a better job. We’re learning it in the meetings and we’re going out there and doing it on the field, but everybody’s doing a great job of just taking all the coaching points and making it work on the field right now.”

The passing game will be the key to the entire season, with a first-time starter throwing to the youngest receivers in the NFL. Love does have chemistry with Romeo Doubs, stemming in part from their time working out together in California.

“I think it’s easy when you got a really good player,” Love said. “They just kind of make it happen.”

One of those plays they made happen was a touchdown during a red-zone period on Tuesday, a spectacular throw and catch.

“When in doubt, you can throw it out there and you know he’s going to make a play and he’s done a great job of going and getting the ball wherever it’s at,” Love said. “He’s made some really tough catches and it kind of just builds everybody’s confidence. It builds my confidence in him, just being able to throw the ball out there and know he’s going to make a play.”
