Now that Aaron Rodgers has been traded from the Green Bay Packers to the New York Jets, it’s time for Jordan Love to officially commence his career as the starting quarterback.
The Green Bay Packers recently concluded their training camp and preseason, and now the real games are set to begin.
With the 2023 season ahead, there has been some online discussion regarding the media’s apparent oversight in not acknowledging that Jordan Love is the first Black full-time starter in a Packers uniform.
One comment reflects this sentiment, stating, “The limited attention from the Packers media regarding Jordan being the first Black full-time starter in a Packers uniform is quite revealing.”
The reason behind this oversight remains uncertain, but it holds significance for a franchise as venerable as the Green Bay Packers.
Meanwhile, the 2023 NFL season is set to kick off this week, with the Green Bay Packers heading to Soldier Field to face the Chicago Bears in their season opener. With Aaron Rodgers no longer in the picture, who boasted a remarkable 24-5 record against the Bears, Jordan Love steps into the spotlight as the full-time starter after spending three years as a backup to the former Packers quarterback.

A victory in Week One could go a long way in endearing Love to the Packers’ fan base.
On the opposing side, Chicago Bears quarterback Justin Fields has yet to secure a victory against the Green Bay Packers since his arrival in the NFL, maintaining a 0-4 record after the 2022 season. Both quarterbacks have much at stake in this upcoming matchup.
Both fanbases eagerly anticipate the outcome of this showdown at Soldier Field on September 10th.
