The Green Bay Packers will be getting starting quarterback Jordan Love back for their critical NFC North matchup with the Minnesota Vikings. After suffering an MCL injury toward the end of Week 1, Love has missed the past two games.
NFL insider Tom Pelissero reported the news on social media.
He has been practicing each day, albeit in a limited capacity, but he will make his return just in time for this contest. Love had been trending to return all week and there was an expectation that he would see the field on Saturday.
When Love originally suffered his MCL injury, there was some thought that his season could be in jeopardy. But tests showed the best possible outcome for the Packers, and he has been working his way back ever since.
