Jordan Love Targeting Week 5 Return
3 weeks agoGreen Bay Packers quarterback Jordan Love (knee) has already been ruled out for the Week 2 matchup against the Indianapolis Colts. This comes as no surprise after Love suffered an MCL sprain during the final moments of the Week 1 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles. The Packers haven't placed Love on the injured reserve as they only expect him to miss a few weeks. The young signal-caller is reportedly targeting a return in Week 5. It looks like the Packers will still need to get through a few games before Love is ready to play again. That being said, Malik Willis will suit up for Week 2 and figures to remain the starter until Love returns. If he struggles, the Packers could turn to Sean Clifford or bring in a quarterback from outside the organization. However, it seems unlikely that the Packers would bring in another legitimate QB with Love only missing a few weeks. For now, Willis will start under center and he can be avoided in most fantasy formats.
