Jordan Love To Undergo Further Testing On Monday

Green Bay Packers quarterback Jordan Love (groin) will undergo further testing on Monday. The signal-caller injured his groin in Sunday's win over the Jags, and he'd finish the day by throwing for 196 yards and a pick off 14-for-22 passing.

Justin Fields Added To Injury Report

Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Justin Fields (hamstring) has been added to the injury report ahead of Monday's game against the New York Giants.

Bryce Young Could Remain Starter Beyond Week 8

Carolina Panthers quarterback Bryce Young will be back under center for the Week 8 matchup against the Denver Broncos. Young was benched after the first two games due to his poor performance.
