Jordan Love Will Play on Friday Against Denver

Tuesday, August 18, 7:22 AM

Green Bay Packers quarterback Jordan Love will play in Week 2 of the preseason against the Denver Broncos, head coach Matt LaFleur told Matt Schneidman of The Athletic. Love also played the opening drive of the Packers' first preseason game, so this will be the second week in a row he sees the field. LaFleur noted that several offensive starters will play, so it will be good for Love to get some reps with members of the first-team offense. The 27-year-old is looking to improve upon a modest 2025 campaign in which he threw for 3,381 yards, 23 touchdowns, and eight interceptions. He was the QB15 last year, but he's just a few years removed from his QB5 finish in 2023, so managers would like him to return to that level of play. The good news is that Love should have a stronger supporting cast this year. Matthew Golden is trending toward making a Year 2 leap, Christian Watson is on the precipice of a career year, and Tucker Kraft (knee) will hopefully be healthy for the full season.

Caleb Williams' Accuracy "Trending Upward"

Thursday, August 20, 6:48 PM

Chicago Bears head coach Ben Johnson said on Thursday that quarterback Caleb Williams' accuracy is "trending upward," per Josh Alper of Pro Football Talk. After going through some growing pains as a rookie in 2024, Williams made significant improvements in his first season playing under Johnson in 2025. Across 17 games, the 24-year-old threw for 3,942 yards, 27 touchdowns, and seven interceptions while also rushing for 388 yards and three scores. However, Williams completed just 58.1% of his pass attempts and has shown a tendency to miss on simple throws more consistently than would be expected from a highly-talented quarterback. If Williams can continue to fine-tune his raw skills while maintaining his ability to make spectacular plays and throws, he could be in line for a monster breakout in 2026. Fantasy managers should view Williams as a low-end QB1 with upside.
