Jordan Love Not Expected To Play In Week 2
4 weeks agoGreen Bay Packers head coach Matt LaFleur has kept the door open for quarterback Jordan Love (knee) to play in Week 2 against the Indianapolis Colts, listing him as questionable for Sunday's game, but a source said, "That's not happening." Love suffered an MCL sprain in the Week 1 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles in Brazil and has not been medically cleared to play. The Packers hope Love is week-to-week with his knee injury, but the reality is that the Week 3 contest against the Tennessee Titans is considered by those in the know to be "a long shot." The most optimistic timeline would have Love back in Week 4 to face the Minnesota Vikings. He's expected to wear a knee brace when he does return. For now, the Packers are planning to roll with former Titans QB Malik Willis under center. Fantasy managers should expect a run-heavy approach with a lot of Josh Jacobs this weekend against the Colts.
