The Packers are not placing QB Jordan Love (knee) on IR, HC Matt LaFleur said. That means the team believes there's a good chance that Love misses fewer than four games. NFL Network's Tom Pelissero reported on Saturday that Love's "initial timetable" for return was 3-6 weeks. It sounds like he's trending toward the short end of that span.
NFL Network's Tom Pelissero reports that Packers QB Jordan Love's "initial timetable" for return is 3-6 weeks. "And there's some early optimism he could return sooner than later, pending a second opinion," Pelissero adds. Green Bay's bye isn't until Week 10, so that shouldn't factor into Love's return date. It sounds like we should plan on him missing at least the next three games vs. Indianapolis, at Tennessee, and vs. Minnesota. It's worth noting that the Packers medical staff has historically been cautious in bringing players back from injury.
Packers QB Jordan Love has been diagnosed with a sprained MCL, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. There's no damage to Love's ACL. It's relatively good news, but Rapoport confirms that Love "should miss some time." We'll look for a timetable for his return.
Packers QB Jordan Love will have an MRI on his left knee when the team gets back from Brazil, The Athletic's Dianna Russini reports. Love does not have an ankle injury, per Russini, but "it’s just wait-and-see for more information" on the knee. We passed along earlier this morning that former NFL head team Dr. David Chao does not believe Love injured his ACL, but he's certainly not out of the woods as far as a multi-week injury goes. We'll keep you updated on his status.
Packers QB Jordan Love left Friday night's loss to the Eagles late in the fourth quarter after suffering an injury to his left leg. Video shows a pop in his knee, but neither the team nor the player offered any details after the game. The obvious general concern is that Love tore a ligament in that knee, but former NFL team doctor David Chao doesn't think that's what happened.
