Now that Jordan Love is signed, more people are going to complain.
No matter what happened with this contract situation, people were bound to be upset by it. The Packers and Jordan Love agreed to a four year, $220 million contract, which includes a $75 million signing bonus — the largest signing bonus ever given to an NFL player.
So you can go ahead and be upset that the Packers made Love the highest paid player in NFL history, but it was the right choice. It’s a little weird because he has only started one NFL season, but he won a road playoff game and tallied 18 touchdowns and only one pick in the final eight weeks of the regular season.
