Micah Parsons names one key reason why Jordan Love will win NFL MVP in 2026
Micah Parsons is backing his Green Bay Packers quarterback, Jordan Love, to win MVP for one reason no one is talking about. Since the departure of Aaron Rodgers in 2023, Love has ascended to being a top-tier quarterback for the Packers, putting in strong performances with each passing season.
Micah Parsons, a linebacker for the Green Bay Packers, has singled out one key reason for his prediction that Jordan Love will secure the NFL MVP title in 2026. Parsons, speaking on his Bleacher Report podcast, highlighted Love's ability to lead and take charge when the team's offense is struggling. Parsons explained, "There's going to be a time this year where maybe the offense isn't doing well, and Jordan just completely takes over.
That is what you want out of your quarterback: that full takeover." Parsons also mentioned the strong relationship between Love and head coach Matt LaFleur, noting that Love demonstrates trust and open communication. "I see the way Matt (LaFleur) talks about Jordan. When the relationship becomes more than, like, ‘These are the play calls, you run them!’ to, like, ‘Hey, what do you think we get into here?
What are you feeling? Hey, I trust you.’" In the 2023 NFL season, Jordan Love displayed solid performance metrics, including a 101.2 passer rating, 3,381 passing yards, 23 touchdowns, and only six interceptions in 15 games. While these numbers might not rival other elite quarterbacks, Parsons believes Love's growth potential, bolstered by his experience and improved support system, could propel him to MVP status, aiding the Packers in achieving a 12-win season or more.
