Packers general manager Brian Gutekunst shared on Tuesday that quarterback Jordan Love will undergo a "little procedure" on his left thumb for a ligament issue. There's hope that Love will return to practice next week, meaning he isn't expected to be out for long.
ESPN's Adam Schefter added that Love is fully expected to start for the Packers in Week 1 vs. the Lions, which is a highly anticipated matchup between the NFC North rivals. However, don't be surprised if Love's preseason is over as the Packers will likely be cautious with him before the regular season begins.
