Report: Packers, Love to work on new extension in offseason

Jordan Love could cash in on his strong first season as the Green Bay Packers' starter.

Green Bay and the ascending quarterback will have a "serious conversation" about a potential new deal in the offseason, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

The 25-year-old is contracted through the 2024 campaign after inking a short-term deal last May.

The Packers opted not to pick up the fifth-year option in Love's rookie deal that would've cost $20.272 million fully guaranteed for the 2024 season. Instead, Green Bay gave its new top signal-caller a one-year extension worth up to $22.5 million, including $13.5 million fully guaranteed.

Love earned $4.5 million in escalators after getting the Packers back to the playoffs and will take home another $500,000 after helping to stun the Dallas Cowboys in the wild-card round Sunday.

The 2020 first-round pick has caught fire since Week 11, leading Green Bay to a 6-2 record while throwing 18 touchdowns to just one interception. He finished the season second in passing scores (32), seventh in passing yards (4,159), and ninth in success rate (47.6%) and QBR (62.0).
