LaFleur said he expects Love to take “most” of the team’s reps during Saturday’s practice. He said Love has been throwing every day after practice and is ready for Saturday.
LaFleur said he spoke with Love on Facetime after learning of the extension. “I don’t think you could wipe that smile off his face, he was pretty happy.”
On Love’s return to practice: “He’s one of the leaders on this team … it’s going to give everybody a boost. Not just the offense, but the defense.”
