The Green Bay Packers decided to select Utah State quarterback Jordan Love in the 2020 NFL Draft, and it became the talk of the town after the conclusion of the first-round draft festivities. Long-time Packers playmaker Aaron Rodgers expected to get some potent offensive weapons but was only left in shock after the selection.

With a conversation on The Ringer podcast, Rodgers bared his sentiments regarding the team's draft choice:

And then I got a text—because everything’s so delayed—I got a text from my agent, marketing agent who I love and he just texted “quarterback.” I was like, “Oh, wow. OK.” I love scotch, but I’ve been drinking some sipping tequila as well. Once I got that text, I went to the pantry, I poured myself about four fingers, and I knew it was going to be one of those nights where people were going to start calling, and there was going to be the, “Hey, is everything fine? You OK?” “Yeah, I’m fine.”

Being one game away from the Super Bowl, Rodgers expected his team to aggressively make moves in the offseason to surround him with new targets. However, it didn't go as expected.

Drafting Love was reminiscent of the Packers’ move when they drafted Rodgers with the 24th overall pick of the 2005 NFL Draft to replace long-time quarterback Brett Favre. It was indicative of a major possibility that a changing of the guards is about to happen in Green Bay.

At the end of the day, despite the uncertainty, the eight-time Pro Bowler is still a Green Bay Packer. Whether he will finish his career still playing in Wisconsin is a discussion for another day.
