Tom Brady says Jordan Love had 'best type of training' by watching Aaron Rodgers play

Former NFL quarterback Tom Brady says that Green Bay Packers QB Jordan Love had the best training before taking over the starting QB role. Love had spent three seasons on the bench while Aaron Rodgers played ahead of him.

It was in his fourth year in 2023 season that Love, who threw for 4,159 yards and 32 touchdowns in last season, became the starting quarterback at Green Bay. By then Rodgers had also left to be a New York Jet.

Brady, while speaking on The Herd with Colin Cowherd, approved of the wait Love had to do before coming of age at Green Bay.

"He had Aaron Rodgers to watch. That's the best type of training, in my opinion. Watch someone else do it at a very high level and then try to emulate them with your own personality," Brady said.

"Maybe a little bit of a misnomer with the draft is that these players can come in and all of the sudden become this great professional player before they've really had the training and the development," he added.

The seven-time Super Bowl winner also acknowledged that he was lucky to be the study of Drew Bledsoe in his rookie year in the league.

Brady had famously replaced Bledsoe after an injury to the latter and went on to become the Greatest of All Time (GOAT) QB to ever play the game.

Brady played for 23 seasons in the NFL out of which 20 came for the New England Patriots and the last three came with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

Brady started in 335 career games in regular season, throwing a record 89,214 yards in 12,050 attempts to go with 649 touchdowns as well.

As for Love, the first round pick of 2020 NFL draft has started in 27 games so far, throwing 4,765 yards in 662 attempts along with 35 touchdowns.
