Jordan Love suffered MCL injury, out for a few weeks

All things considered, there is some relatively positive news on Packers quarterback Jordan Love.

According to multiple reports, Love suffered an MCL injury at the end of Friday night’s loss to the Eagles. While Love is expected to miss time, his ACL was not injured and he will not be sidelined for the rest of the 2024 season.

There have been various reports about Love’s timeline for return. Tom Pelissero of NFL Media notes it could take three-to-six weeks for Love to come back. Ian Rapoport of NFL Media reports it’s between a Grade 1 and Grade 2 MCL sprain, which will sideline Love for “a few weeks.” Rob Demovsky of ESPN reports the Packers hope it’s a three-to-four-week injury.

Love, 25, went down with 15 seconds left in the contest, leaving backup Malik Willis to play the game’s last two snaps.

The Packers arrived back in Green Bay earlier on Saturday after playing in Brazil last night.

Willis is the only other quarterback currently on Green Bay’s 53-man roster. The club has Sean Clifford on its practice squad.
