Jordan Love made waves for Green Bay this season, taking over for legend Aaron Rodgers and excelling.

If there's ever been a duo you don't want to see across the net volletball net, it's Stone and Love. Not only do they both have cannons for arms, but they know how to go the distance. Literally. From France to Wisconsin, they're pros at volleyball, football and their relationship.

Here's what to know about Stone, who's no stranger to the NFL world.
Who is Jordan Love's girlfriend?
Love's girlfriend may be just as athletic, if not more so, than Love.
Stone is a professional volleyball player. The middle blocker played collegiately at Oregon, becoming an AVCA All-American and a three-time All-Pac12 selection. During her time with the Ducks, from 2016 to 2019, she set a handful of of program records. Stone is the all-time leader in hitting percentage (.336), the all-time leader in block assists (429) and ranks third and fifth in school history in total blocks (485) and points (1,605.5).
Stone is the daughter of two-time Super Bowl winner Ron Stone, who most notably played for the Cowboys. So it's no surprise she was able to delay her journalism career and continue volleyball at the professional level.
Following graduation from Oregon, Stone moved to France where she played one season for Volero Le Cannet. She moved back to the United States after, saying the COVID-19 pandemic made it difficult to play overseas.

Her volleyball career didn't end there. She joined Athletes Unlimited, a professional league in the US for softball, volleyball, basketball and lacrosse. In 2022, Stone set off to play professionally outside the US again. She headed to Puerto Rico to play for Las Pinkin De Corozal, where she spent the 2022 and 2023 seasons.
She'll once again play in her home country beginning Feb. 1. Stone signed with the San Diego Mojo, a team within the Pro Volleyball Federation, one of two professional volleyball leagues in the US kicking off in 2024.
