Who is Jordan Love, the controversial QB drafted to replace Aaron Rodgers?

Few college coaches spent more time studying new Green Bay Packers quarterback Jordan Love than Wake Forest’s Dave Clawson. The Demon Deacons opened the 2019 season with Utah State, which meant Clawson had eight months to dive into Love’s 32 touchdown passes during his scintillating 2018 season.

What stood out to Clawson, though, was standing on the field before their game in August. He watched Love throw laser spirals, and the ball spun through the air so crisply that it came accompanied by a soundtrack.

Clawson had flashbacks to his days coaching at Richmond, when he saw Delaware’s Joe Flacco and Vanderbilt’s Jay Cutler throw pregame.
