Not only has Packers legend Brett Favre been admired with Jordan Love, but he believes the 25-year-old can beat himself, Bart Starr, and Aaron Rodgers to become the best quarterback in Green Bay history. Following the Packers' season-ending 24-21 loss to the San Francisco 49ers, Favre sent Love on X, which culminated in the fourth-year pro throwing an ugly interception to linebacker Dre Greenlaw. On X, Favre wrote, 'Great game and tough loss for my Packers.' When I say, 'We are so proud of you and can't wait to see what the future holds, I'm sure I speak for all packer supporters.' 'There's a lot to be excited about.' Love was then given some encouragement by Favre: "Jordan keep your chin up because I think you can be the best Packer QB ever," he says.
