There’s still no word as to the severity of the knee injury Packers quarterback Jordan Love suffered in Friday’s game. Yesterday, Green Bay coach Matt LeFleur said the team had gotten some “relatively good news” about the injury, and wouldn’t rule out the prospect of Love returning this week. Malik Willis, who was obtained by the Packers from the Titans at the end of training camp, will start if Love cannot play.
