A roundup of the latest Green Bay Packers articles for Friday, May 15.

Welcome to the Packers News Report.

We’ll get to hear from both quarterback Aaron Rodgers and head coach Matt LaFleur today. It’ll be the first time Rodgers has spoken to the media since Brian Gutekunst made the decision to draft quarterback Jordan Love in the first round of the 2020 NFL Draft. I wonder what the number one topic will be for Rodgers throughout the call.

According to Wes Hodkiewicz of Packers.com, Rodgers will speak to the media via conference call on Friday afternoon at 2 p.m. CT. LaFleur will later speak to the media at 3:30 p.m. CT.

Without OTAs taking place at the team facility, both Rodgers and LaFleur will speak to the media digitally. I’m sure Jordan Love’s name will be mentioned a lot today and it’ll be interesting to hear Rodgers’ thoughts for the first time.
