MORE: How did Jordan Love's contract come together and how did Green Bay do?

The Athletic's Dianna Russini joined Peter Bukowski on Locked on Packers to take us through what took so long, and how the rest of the NFL views Jordan Love's new deal.

Jordan Love’s contract negotiations went into training camp, something Green Bay Packers general manager Brian Gutekunst said specifically in the spring he hoped to avoid. Why did it take so long? And how did the Packers do according to folks around the league?

Dianna Russini from The Athletic joined me on Locked on Packers this week to break that all down (plus we may have checked in on a certain former Packers quarterback who now plays in her backyard).

A quick reminder there are just two days left to lock in nearly 50% off our 2024 annual rate for the first year. This offer is only good through Sunday night, so now is the time to take … the leap!
