BREAKING: Packers Confirms More Bad News with Major Decision on Jordan Love
The Green Bay Packers had to rely on backup quarterback Malik Willis in Week 2 against the Indianapolis Colts after starter Jordan Love was sidelined with a knee injury. Willis led the team to a comeback victory, securing his first win as Love’s replacement. Love had injured his knee in Week 1 against the Philadelphia Eagles and was initially expected to miss several weeks, but his recovery seems to be progressing faster than anticipated.
According to The Athletic’s Diana Russini, the Packers have already decided on Love’s availability for their Week 3 matchup against the Tennessee Titans, though they’re keeping that decision under wraps. This move hints that Love might not be playing, and the Packers could be attempting to create uncertainty in the Titans’ preparation by forcing them to plan for both quarterbacks.
According to @DMRussini, the Packers have already decided whether Jordan Love is playing tomorrow but understandably want to keep their decision close to the vest. More here: https://t.co/YswLeAMlbx

While this strategy may seem deceptive, it’s within the rules. However, it’s unlikely the Packers would rush Love back from injury, especially with a winnable game on the line. Plus, fans are eager to see Willis get a chance for revenge against his former team.
