If the Green Bay Packers are to go places in the 2025 NFL season, it will largely be because of their dangerous 1-2 backfield combo of quarterback Jordan Love and running back Josh Jacobs.
While he’s yet to earn a Pro Bowl nod, Love is widely considered among the better quarterbacks in the NFL. Meanwhile, Jacobs is an established star tailback, even before he signed a deal in the 2024 offseason with the Packers following several years with the Las Vegas Raiders.
Because of the pair, Green Bay figures to be a well-balanced team on offense that can beat opponents either by leaning on their ground attack or through aerial assaults.
Last season, Love passed for 3,389 yards and 25 touchdowns on a 63.1 percent completion rate while Jacobs paced the Packers with 1,329 rushing yards and 15 touchdowns on 301 carries.
It also appears that Love and Jacobs have developed a special chemistry after just a season together on the team.
Green Bay Packers’ 1-2 backfield punch share similar hairstyles
Amid the Packers training camp, Love and Jacobs have been noticed sporting the same braided hairstyles.
“You see, we got the same style? That’s big bro. I’m trying to copy my boy right there,” Love said of Jacobs during a recent interview.
Jacobs later responded to that with a post on social media.
“That’s my brudda fr,” the former Alabama Crimson Tide star tailback wrote in an Instagram Story post.
