Packers QB Jordan Love could miss game vs. Cardinals

The Arizona Cardinals do not play the Green Bay Packers until Week 6 but that game suddenly looks a little different.

Packers quarterback Jordan Love, who injured his knee in the waning moments of their 34-29 season-opening loss to the Philadelphia Eagles in Sao Paulo, Brazil, might not be able to play in that game.

He injured his MCL and, according to multiple reports, he is looking at a timetable of being out three to six weeks.

Love and the team are still seeking opinions and have decisions to make. If he is placed on injured reserve, he would have to miss at least four games, which would make him eligible to come back in Week 6, when the Cardinals visit the Packers on the road.

Until then, Malik Willis, acquired just a couple of weeks ago, is the starter and the only healthy quarterback on the roster. Sean Clifford is on the practice squad.
