Father’s Day is a time to honor the dads and father figures in our lives, but for one NFL quarterback, it was also an opportunity to poke fun at his team’s biggest rival. The Green Bay Packers have a new face under center this season, who was handpicked to replace Aaron Rodgers in 2020.
Jordan Love, who has seen limited action in his first three years in the league, now seeking the chance to prove himself as the leader of the Packers’ offense and the heir to Rodgers’ legacy with one of their most fierce rivals, the Chicago Bears. The new starter QB, took to social media to send a sarcastic message to the Bears fans and instantly got the taste of his own medicine.

On Father’s Day, which is a holiday that celebrates fatherhood and paternal bonds, Love posted a message on social media that was meant to troll the Bears fans or might be a big blunder. He wrote: “Happy Father’s Day to all the Bears fans out there. Go Pack go.” It mostly seems a major blunder on Father’s Day when he wished all the Bears fans, implying he was their son. Love’s attempt at trolling backfired horribly, as he ended up complimenting the Bears instead of jabbing them. He just did it, which is not what he wanted to say.

On the other side of the coin, Jordan’s wish might be a reference to the Packers’ dominance over the Bears in recent years, as they have won eight consecutive games and 13 out of the last 14 against their division rivals. And may Jordan want to follow in the footsteps of Rodgers, who famously shouted “I still own you!” to the Bears fans after scoring a touchdown in Chicago in 2021.

At a previous event, Love admitted he had some doubts about his future when Rodgers signed a contract extension in 2022, but he never gave up on his dream of playing for the Packers. Said he is now confident and excited and wanted to continue the legacy of winning.
