Utah State quarterback Jordan Love is one of the most polarizing and highly-debated prospects in the 2020 class. Regardless, with the NFL Draft set for April 23, the 21-year-old prospect has already talked with six teams per Bleacher Report's Matt Miller.
According to Miller, Love has done video interviews with the Miami Dolphins, Green Bay Packers, Indianapolis Colts, Las Vegas Raiders, Los Angeles Chargers and New Orleans Saints.
Blessed with a 6-foot-4, 224-pound frame with a rocket arm and strong athleticism, it's easy to see why many scouts have been drooling over Love as a prospect.
As a sophomore in 2018, Love had an excellent season where he completed 64.0 percent of his passes for 3,567 yards, 32 touchdowns and only six interceptions while adding another seven TDs on the ground.
However, the polarizing prospect took a huge step back as a junior in 2019. Love saw his total touchdowns shrink from 39 to only 20 while he also threw 17 interceptions and saw his completion percentage drop down to 61.9 percent.
Still, many scouts see Love as a surefire first-round pick with some mock drafts have him going as early as the top 10.
As for the teams that he has already talked to, Miami has three first-round picks in this year's draft and is in desperate need for a new quarterback. Green Bay may be looking for a backup to learn behind Aaron Rodgers, who will turn 37 years old next season. The Colts are also in need of a quarterback after Andrew Luck's surprise retirement prior to the start of last season. The team signed veteran Philip Rivers but he is entering the twilight of his career.
Las Vegas has Derek Carr but head coach Jon Gruden may want to bring the team in a new direction while the Chargers are entering a new era after letting longtime starter, Rivers, walk. Head coach Anthony Lynn reportedly prefers more mobile quarterbacks like Love. Lastly, the Saints wont have Drew Brees forever and could look to Love to lead the franchise when Brees inevitably retires.
