It’s officially the dawn of a new era for the Green Bay Packers.
Aaron Rodgers won’t be their starting quarterback next season, and Jordan Love is ready to take the field after years on the bench.
And even though there are still some doubts about his ability to take the reins and play up to the usual Packer standard, RB AJ Dillon recently claimed that he’s already earned the respect of every single player in that locker room.
Dillon told SiriusXM NFL Radio that everybody in the locker room would run through a wall for Love, praising his work ethic and how he’s handled the whole situation.

Notably, Love was put in a tough spot from day one.
Being Rodgers’ backup and a first-round pick and playing for such a storied organization, his sole presence there was a talking point.
Rodgers even admitted that the fact that the Packers took Love was the first step on his road out of Lambeau Field.
Love’s numbers have been far from impressive, and some fans have more than enough reasons to be concerned and skeptical as we head to his debut season as a starter.
But people from within the organization and his teammates have raved about the great strides he’s made for months.
Also, it’s pretty much safe to say that the Packers have a track record of going from one Hall of Famer at quarterback to another, so we should at least give them the benefit of the doubt this time around.
