Jordan Love, at just 25 years of age, has just completed a remarkable first season as the starting quarterback for the Green Bay Packers, throwing 37 touchdown passes and leading his team to a playoff win over the Dallas Cowboys. On the back of his extraordinary first up season as quarterback he has become one of the most exciting athletes in US sport at the moment. An incredibly humble, respectful and brilliant young man, in this chat Jordan talks as openly as ever about life on and off the field, including his dream to collaborate with his hero LeBron James.

He talks openly about the balance of taking over from the legendary Aaron Rodgers, the lessons that he learned from being Aaron's understudy for three years and tells how the two of them still have a great friendship to this day, even though they're on opposing teams. As a leader who is proud to lean on his more experienced teammates, Jordan is always empowering those around him to lead with consistency and compassion. In this conversation, Jordan shares the tragic story of the passing of his father, a respected police sergeant, and how his dad is still the person who inspires him the most to this day.
