Jordan Love has been paid like a franchise quarterback by the Green Bay Packers. Even in the NFL though, where a big contract often guarantees you playing time, that doesn't mean Love's status as “the future” in Green Bay is guaranteed.
In fact, one could make the argument that nothing is guaranteed for Love, especially in a place like Green Bay. This is the same franchise that traded both Brett Favre and Aaron Rodgers — with seven NFL MVP's between them —when it was sensed that they were no longer worth their weight in cheese curds.
