Apart from the excitement, some season-defining NFL storylines are surrounding the league. The climax of which will be written in the upcoming summer.
Top 3 NFL storylines worth knowing.
Jordan Love – A boon or a curse for the Green Bay Packers.
Aaron Rodgers and the Green Bay Packers drama is a well-known story now. Every Packers fan has been waiting for Rodgers to appear in the mini-camp and they are hoping for his return in the training camp. However, the recent revelations about the declining of extension contract by the MVP which would have made him the highest-paid quarterback in the NFL hit hard. The NFL storyline which started months back in the NFL draft when the Packers picked up Jordan Love has now turned into a nightmare for the fans.

Jordan Love was picked by the Packers with a view that he will be the ‘quarterback of the future’ for the team. However, the sources are claiming that Rodgers will show up at the right time. He currently has three years remaining on his deal with the Packers. If that happens then Love might find a place behind Rodgers. Also, some sources are claiming that Aaron Rodgers is trying to get some sort of deal.
When Aaron Rodgers announces he's returning for the season, I am immediately sending offers for Jordan Love.

Los Angeles Rams after losing Cam Akers
One of the damn things about the NFL season is that the Los Angeles Rams looked like a potential Super Bowl contender. However, everything and every rumor changed just after the news breaks out about their star running back Cam Akers. It’s fixed not that the Rams will not be having their leading rusher this season as they lost him to a torn Achilles injury. Everyone knows that this is a huge loss for the Rams and they knitted a new NFL storyline about the Rams future.

The most suitable option in absence of Cam Akers must be a reliable player. One who can be trusted not only in the game of running but also in terms of blocking. His overall strengths must be higher in terms of passing and catching also. It’s time that the Rams must bring the best out of Darrell Henderson and replace their lost gem with this potential candidate. With Sean McVay‘s strategy and experience, the Los Angeles Rams can still be the Super Bowl contender.
New York Giants or Denver Broncos
Another NFL storyline will include the young quarterbacks’ Drew Lock and Daniel Jones. There is going to be a lot of pressure on these two as their respective teams are relying so much on them and when expectations are higher then the pressure of performance will also be at its peak. As soon as the season starts most of the eyes will look for the potential of these two players. If Drew Lock and Daniel Jones can live up to the promises they made with their teams.

With Drew Lock’s inconsistency, the Broncos are all tied to him. If his performance will not improve then the whole line will get affected. Similarly, the Giants Daniel Jones will have the same impact on his team. Let’s wait and watch will any of these men make an impact or somehow a new face will rise to benefit the offensive lines.
Since 2019, Teddy Bridgewater ranks first in yards per attempt (18.7), first in completion percentage (47%) and third in passer rating (121.5) on pass attempts 25-plus air yards.
