Jordan Love

NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport reports Jordan Love’s groin injury is believed to be minor, but his availability for Week 9 against the Lions could be in doubt.

It’s still early, but the Packers have Week 9’s game against the Lions, followed by a Week 10 bye. The extra time off would give Love a little more than two weeks to recover in time for the team’s second-half push into the postseason, and Malik Willis has been solid in his relief of Love thus far. This situation will be one to monitor all week, but it would not be surprising if Love was held out of next week’s contest.
