Will Jordan Love be available for the Packers' Week 9 game against the Detroit Lions? Is Jordan Love injured? What is the latest Jordan Love injury news?
Green Bay Packers quarterback Jordan Love exited Sunday's 30-27 win over the Jacksonville Jaguars with a groin injury. The Packers won on a field goal by Brandon McManus as time expired.
An MRI on Monday revealed that Love avoided suffering a long-term injury. The team is currently listing him as day-to-day.

That would give Love a shot to play in Week 9 when the Packers take on their decision rival Detroit Lions in a huge game. Green Bay needs to be at full strength to keep up with a Lions offense that can score points in a hurry.
Green Bay will likely push for Love to be ready to go on Sunday. It's possible that with a Week 10 bye coming up, Green Bay will rest Love if he isn't close to 100% though, so monitor for any set backs between now and Sunday.
Jordan Love Fantasy Football Outlook for Week 9
The Packers face the Detroit Lions in Week 9. Detroit allows the 14th-most fantasy points per game to the quarterback position, making this a mostly neutral matchup for the Green Bay passing attack.
Love has finished as a top 15 fantasy quarterback in every full game he's played, so if he suits up in Week 9 then fantasy managers should certainly fire him up.
Pretty cool story about the Leak Wheel to Jayden Reed
The play wasn't in the gameplan.

If Love is out, Malik Willis would be a low-end QB2 option. He struggles with accuracy much of the time but has had some good moments in 2024.
