The selection of Utah State quarterback Jordan Love in the first round of the 2020 NFL draft could presage a larger conflict between Green Bay Packers head coach Matt LaFleur and star quarterback Aaron Rodgers.
The Athletic's Bob McGinn wrote Tuesday that LaFleur might have sent a message to the eight-time Pro Bowler:
"Public niceties aside, my sense is LaFleur, fresh from a terrific 13-3 baptismal season, simply had enough of Rodgers' act and wanted to change the narrative. With a first-round talent on the roster, the Packers would gain leverage with their imperial quarterback and his passive-aggressive style.
