News: 2 days agoLove completed 21 of 40 passes for 289 yards, two touchdowns and two interceptions in Sunday's 23-19 loss to the Steelers.

Spin: Love barely completed half of his passes, yet he had a number of long completions downfield. After opening the game with an eight-yard touchdown to Romeo Doubs, he found Jayden Reed for a 35-yard score during the second quarter. To close the contest, though, Love was intercepted on consecutive drives while attempting throws into the end zone, tarnishing a performance that otherwise had some promising moments.

ESPN Fantasy Projection: After three seasons sitting and learning behind Aaron Rodgers, Love is finally atop the QB depth chart in Green Bay. The 26th pick of the 2020 draft, Love has attempted only 83 passes in his career, 34 of which came in his lone start (Week 9 in 2021). In fact, we haven't seen him play at a high level since his breakout season at Utah State in 2018. He struggled in his final collegiate campaign (2019), tossing 20 TDs and 17 INTs, and his off-target rate (15.5%) and QBR (51.7) were both worst in the 2020 rookie class. Love is obviously a major unknown and while that comes with some inherent upside, his supporting cast is young and may not be much better than the one Rodgers struggled with in 2022. Love is late-round flier material in deep leagues.
