Jordan Love Wants to Air It Out — What It Means for His QB2 Value

Love threw for 3,381 yards and 23 TDs with zero picks in 2025, but Green Bay's run-first script capped his ceiling. That could shift this year.

Elite efficiency, but the volume has to follow the talk first.

Key numbers
  • 23 TD, 0 INT across 15 games in 2025
  • 3,381 pass yards, 247 PPR pts last season
  • QB14 in our rankings, #31 overall
  • Jacobs: 13 rush TD, 237 PPR pts in 2025
  • Love -2.5 fantasy pts over his last 5 games

Jordan Love wants the training wheels off. Green Bay's quarterback said he's hoping to throw more this season, a not-so-subtle nudge toward an offense that has leaned run-heavy for his entire run under center. He's coming off a 2025 that read cleaner than the fantasy production suggested: 3,381 passing yards, 23 touchdowns and — this is the eye-popping part — zero interceptions across 15 games.

That efficiency landed him 247 PPR points and a QB14 finish in our rankings (#31 overall). Good, not great. The problem was never accuracy or ball security; it was volume. When your offense funnels touches to the backfield, even a clean, mistake-free season tops out as a QB2 line.

The Jacobs Factor

Here's the thread worth pulling. Josh Jacobs' future in Green Bay is reportedly uncertain, and Jacobs was the engine of that ground game — 929 rushing yards, 13 rushing scores and 237 PPR points of his own last year. If the Packers pivot away from that workhorse model, Love inherits the throws. He's got the arm and the weapons to do more than manage games.

The trend lines add a wrinkle. Love faded down the stretch, averaging 2.5 fantasy points below his season mark over his final five games. Jacobs slid even harder, -4.5 per game across his last five. Neither closed strong, which makes the offseason talk of a more pass-first identity feel like a natural evolution rather than a pipe dream.

The Fantasy Fallout

Realistically, Love is still a streaming QB2 until the volume actually materializes — hope isn't a stat. But this is a name to keep on your radar in deeper leagues and Superflex formats, where an offense trending toward the pass could push him into low-end QB1 range.

The move: don't reach for him in single-QB drafts, but circle him as a WATCH. If Green Bay's snap-share and pass rate climb in September, or if Jacobs' situation shifts, that's your cue to buy before the market catches up. A QB who threw 23 touchdowns and zero picks with more attempts coming is exactly the profile you want to own early.
