SAD NEWS: Jordan Love’s Niece Injured in Tragic Minneapolis Church Shooting — Packers QB Speaks Out with Emotional Message

Green Bay, Wis. — Green Bay Packers quarterback Jordan Love, known for his deep Christian faith, issued a somber statement Wednesday night following the devastating shooting at Annunciation Catholic Church and School in Minneapolis. Through his agent, Love confirmed that his niece was among the children injured during the tragic attack and asked for privacy as the family travels to Minnesota and awaits further medical updates.

Team officials stated that the Packers organization is fully supporting the quarterback and his family with logistical and emotional resources. Head Coach Matt LaFleur, along with multiple veteran leaders, reportedly reached out personally to Love, while the club prepares a broader show of solidarity with the grieving Minneapolis community.

“My heart breaks for the families who lost their children today,” Love said in a statement.
“We are praying without ceasing for every victim, every parent, every classmate, and every first responder. My niece left that church terrified, and our whole family is grateful she is alive — but no child should ever carry this kind of fear.”

Love described the shooting as a "cowardly, deliberate act against kids at worship," echoing the words of Minneapolis police officials. He urged for a collective response beyond team colors and rivalries:

“As a man of faith, I believe we have to grieve together, stand together, and protect our children together — beyond jerseys, beyond rivalries.”

The quarterback also offered thanks to hospital staff, first responders, and parish leaders at Annunciation Church. He encouraged Packers fans and the wider NFL community to donate blood, support verified relief funds, and back local grief-counseling efforts.

In a heartfelt note to Green Bay supporters, Love added:

“We feel your prayers. Please keep lifting up the families who lost their little ones tonight.”

A candlelight vigil is expected to be organized by parish leaders in Minneapolis later this week. As of now, Love and his family are requesting privacy during this incredibly difficult time.

Packers Jordan Love Becomes Part-Owner of Milwaukee Brewers
The Green Bay Packers’ young franchise quarterback is making a bold statement off the football field. Jordan Love, the rising star who has taken over the reins in Titletown, has officially become a part-owner of the Milwaukee Brewers. The Brewers, established in 1970, have long been Wisconsin’s pride in Major League Baseball. With legends like Robin Yount, Paul Molitor, and more recently Christian Yelich, the team has carried Milwaukee through highs and lows, always backed by one of the most loyal fan bases in baseball. Jordan Love has now etched his name into that story. Since replacing Aaron Rodgers in Green Bay, Love has quickly developed into one of the NFL’s most promising quarterbacks. His presence in Wisconsin sports has already transformed the Packers’ outlook — and now his investment with the Brewers shows he is here to stay. “This is where I want my legacy to grow,” Love said. “Green Bay and Milwaukee have given me support, love, and belief. Joining the Brewers ownership is about giving back, about building Wisconsin sports into something even bigger for the entire nation.”   The move mirrors the new wave of athlete-owners across American sports. Patrick Mahomes owns a stake in the Kansas City Royals, while Jalen Hurts recently joined the Phillies’ ownership group. Now, Love adds his name to the list, showing that NFL quarterbacks can leave an impact far beyond football. For the Brewers, this is a timely moment. With playoff hopes alive in 2025 and a roster full of homegrown talent, having Jordan Love tied to the organization adds cultural weight. His popularity with Packers Nation will likely carry into Miller Park, bridging Wisconsin’s two most beloved teams. Fans have already taken to social media to celebrate the partnership. Packers fans see it as Love doubling down on his commitment to Wisconsin. Brewers fans see it as validation that their franchise remains attractive to rising stars who want to plant their roots in the state. Ultimately, Jordan Love’s decision isn’t just financial. It’s personal. It’s about building legacy in Wisconsin, ensuring that when people think about sports in the Midwest, they think Green Bay Packers and Milwaukee Brewers standing side by side. For Love, this is about more than winning games — it’s about building history.
