Packers' Jordan Love calls offensive plays in the second half of preseason game, sparks late comeback
Green Bay Packers play-caller Jordan Love? That was the star quarterback’s role in the team's final preseason game, and he excelled at it.
Love called the offensive plays in the second half of the Packers’ 42-38 win over the Arizona Cardinals on Friday night.
Head coach Matt LaFleur said he approached Love about it on the field before the game.
"I just went up to him.
It’s not like he had time to prep.
I was just like, ‘Hey, you want to call the second half?’" LaFleur said.
"He said, ‘Sure.
Yeah, I’ll do it.’ And he did it and he did an outstanding job." CLICK HERE FOR MORE OUTKICK SPORTS COVERAGE Love apparently had some sort of magic touch, as the Packers erased an 11-point deficit in the final 3 1/2 minutes to come back and get the win.
Love’s poise impressed his head coach.
"(Offensive coordinator Adam Stenavich) called the first half, did an outstanding job, and then we had J-Love call the second half," LaFleur said.
"That was pretty cool, to hear his demeanor on the headset and how calm, cool and collected he was throughout the entire game, especially during those critical moments.
That’s not a surprise to me because that’s what we see on the field, too." ZERO BS.
JUST DAKICH.
