The Green Bay Packers‘ preseason starts the same way their regular season ended last year, with a win. The Packers largely dominated the Cleveland Browns in front of their home fans, securing a 23-10 win Saturday.
It didn't take Packers quarterback Jordan Love long to show that he's ready to build off his blistering end to the 2023 season, uncorking a beautiful pass to Dontayvion Wicks that resulted in a 65-yard touchdown. Love only played two series, finishing two-of-three for 63 yards and a touchdown.
