Four touchdown passes helped Green Bay Packers quarterback Jordan Love become the FedEx Air and Ground Player of the Week for Week 6 of the 2024 NFL season.
Love completed 22 of 32 passes for 258 yards and four touchdowns in a 34-13 win over the Arizona Cardinals. Love’s four touchdown passes were tied for the most in the NFL during Week 6. His passer rating of 119.5 was the sixth best.
Among Love’s touchdown passes: a third-down touchdown pass to Jayden Reed, a third-down touchdown pass to Romeo Doubs and a 44-yard touchdown pass to Christian Watson. He capped off the performance — and sealed the win — with a backpedaling touchdown pass to Doubs in the second half.
Including the postseason, Love has thrown multiple touchdown passes in 10 straight games, the third longest streak in team history. Love’s four touchdown passes against the Cardinals tied a career high.
Love and Chicago Bears quarterback Caleb Williams won the weekly award, which is now a combination of air and ground candidates. Love and Williams beat out Detroit Lions quarterback Jared Goff, Baltimore Ravens running back Derrick Henry, Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Sean Tucker and Houston Texans running back Joe Mixon. Every week, six players are nominated, and the two top vote getters from the six-player field win the award.
According to the award page, “FedEx will once again proudly work with the Thurgood Marshall College Fund to make donations of $2,000 in the names of the two winning players ($4,000 total) to Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) across the country every week.”
Love previously won the FedEx Air Player of the Week in Week 18 of last season.
