GREEN BAY, Wis. — All around him, a shaky Green Bay Packers offense threatened to undermine Jordan Love’s introduction to his third preseason.
Rookie receiver Romeo Doubs dropped a pass with no San Francisco 49ers defender around him not long after catching a touchdown. Tight end Tyler Davis let a pass hit his hands and turn into a red-zone interception. Later, on a third-and-8 pick, two receivers ran the wrong route.
In the past, Love could have crumbled in the midst of so much chaos. It wasn’t long ago the 2020 first-round pick looked like a deer in headlights with Kansas City Chiefs defensive coordinator Steve Spagnola blitzing him relentlessly in his first NFL start.
