The Packers have yet to announce the deal.
It’s hard to say how long Love will remain in the top spot. The Cowboys’ Dak Prescott has yet to agree to a contract extension and could eclipse Love’s numbers.
Love, 25, is now contractually tied to Green Bay through the 2028 season and is scheduled to become a free agent again at age 30, according to Rob Demovsky, ESPN Staff Writer.
While Love reported for training camp with the rest of the team this week, he has not practiced with the team.
Love could see the field as soon as Saturday, when the team goes in pads for the first time, according to Demovsky.
