Green Bay Packers quarterback Jordan Love is a low-end quarterback streamer for Thursday Night's Week 2 matchup against the Washington Commanders. As fantasy football's QB17 in Week 1, Love only had 22 pass attempts during Green Bay's 27-13 win over the Detroit Lions. He didn't have to do a lot of heavy lifting, but still threw two touchdown passes while falling just short of 200 yards passing. After the Packers' Week 10 bye, Green Bay was a very run-focused team where Love played game manager, which wasn't great for fantasy. The Packers looked like a Super Bowl contender on the defensive side of the ball in Week 1, which doesn't bode well for fantasy production if opposing teams are not pushing them. Love can be treated as a QB2 in Superflex formats and a low-end streamer in single-quarterback leagues for Week 2.

Green Bay Packers quarterback Jordan Love (thumb) is not on the Week 1 injury report and got in a full practice on Wednesday, per Rob Demovsky of ESPN. Love had surgery to fix a ligament in his left (non-throwing) thumb early in the preseason, but he was back to full practice last week and is fully expected to start in the Week 1 divisional clash against the Detroit Lions this Sunday. The 26-year-old could be wearing a brace on his left thumb on game day, but he said it hasn't limited him at all on hand-offs to the running backs. Love will be active this weekend, but it will be a dicey matchup against pass-rusher Aidan Hutchinson and Company, and he could be without one of his top receivers in Jayden Reed (foot). He's on the QB1/2 borderline for the first game of the 2025 season.

Green Bay Packers quarterback Jordan Love is still wearing a brace on his surgically-repaired left thumb, and he may continue to wear the brace as the regular season gets underway. "It'll be some weeks having to brace it up and just keep it protected," Love told ESPN's Rob Demovsky. "We'll play it by ear as I start getting into games and seeing how it feels, as you get back to live contact. But there'll be some time having that brace still." It's fair to assume that the brace may have a slight impact on Love's play, but the quarterback doesn't seem to have any concerns about how it will factor into his productivity. He's looking to shake off the struggles of last season, when he was dealing with nagging injuries and mustered a 63.1 percent completion rate while totaling 3,389 passing yards, 25 touchdowns, and 11 interceptions. The former first-round pick currently owns a fantasy ADP of 114, which makes him the 17th quarterback off the board. His price tag loosely aligns with RotoBaller's expert draft rankings, which have Love listed as the overall QB19.

Green Bay Packers head coach Matt LaFleur said that quarterback Jordan Love (thumb) would be a full participant in practice on Monday. Love had surgery to fix a ligament in his left (non-throwing) thumb after the first preseason game and was held out of the final two preseason contests as a result. The 26-year-old is back to a full participant in practice now, though, which should leave no doubts about his availability for the Week 1 regular-season opener on Sunday, Sept. 7, against the division-rival Detroit Lions. The former first-rounder will be looking to bounce back after regressing slightly in his fourth season in 2024 with 3,389 passing yards, 25 touchdowns and 11 interceptions in 15 starts. Love and the rest of the offense will need better injury luck to do that, but their receiving corps isn't off to a good start. Fantasy managers should consider Love to be a midrange QB2 with upside.

Green Bay Packers quarterback Jordan Love (thumb) says he'll be ready to go for the Week 1 opener versus the Detroit Lions on September 7. The signal-caller recently underwent surgery on his non-throwing thumb. He returned to practice on Monday, albeit in a limited capacity. Fortunately, it's been good news for Love since his return from the minor surgery. He took a step back in 2024, tossing for 3,389 yards, 25 touchdowns, and 11 interceptions off 268-for-425 passing (63.1%). Love also found the end zone once on the ground. The 26-year-old has plenty of weapons at his disposal on the offensive side of the ball. However, Love will need to stay healthy. The Packers also have one of the more challenging schedules in the National Football League, which is another thing going against him. With that said, fantasy managers should wait for the official update from the team regarding his availability for Week 1.

Green Bay Packers quarterback Jordan Love (thumb) returned to training camp practice on Monday, according to The Athletic's Matt Schneidman. Love was doing hand-offs and throws, while backup Malik Willis took the first snaps of th day. The 26-year-old will ultimately go down as a limited participant, but it's still good news that he's back on the field after having minor surgery on his left (non-throwing) thumb. He had his thumb heavily taped in a soft cast and will not return to 11-on-11 drills this week. It's unclear when he'll be able to return to a full workload, and Green Bay will probably hold him out of their preseason finale on Saturday against the Seattle Seahawks. It shouldn't have a negative impact on Love's fantasy value for upcoming drafts. For fantasy purposes, managers should consider him more of a low-end QB2 with upside.
Aug 18, 2025 12:10 PM EST
Green Bay Packers head coach Matt LaFleur said he "would love to get him out there tomorrow," referencing quarterback Jordan Love, who could return to practice on Monday. The 26-year-old underwent surgery on his non-throwing left thumb to address a ligament injury he suffered in the team's first preseason game. The former first-round pick is still expected to be ready for Week 1 against the Detroit Lions. He threw for 3,389 yards and 25 touchdowns, adding 83 yards and one touchdown on the ground. RotoBaller still projects Love as a QB2 and ranks Love as QB20.
Aug 17, 2025 4:07 PM EST
The Athletic's Matt Schneidman reports that Green Bay Packers quarterback Jordan Love (thumb) is wearing a soft cast after having surgery to address a ligament injury in his left (non-throwing) thumb. Love is still expected to return to practice next week. Even if he were fully healthy, Love was not expected to play in the second preseason game this Saturday against the Indianapolis Colts. The 26-year-old will get back to practice next week and is fully expected to be ready for Week 1 of the 2025 regular season. Love missed two games due to injury in his second full season as the starter in 2024 and finished with 3,389 passing yards, 25 touchdowns and 11 interceptions, a slight step back from the previous campaign. The Packers' offense needs to stay healthy, but if Love ends up running more, a bounce-back season could be in store. Draft him as a low-end QB2 with upside this fall.
Aug 14, 2025 4:20 PM EST
Green Bay Packers general manager Brian Gutekunst said that quarterback Jordan Love (thumb) is undergoing a procedure to fix a ligament issue in his left thumb, per ESPN's Rob Demovsky. Gutekunst says the hope is that Love will return to practice next week, and that the injury is not expected to affect him long-term or impact his Week 1 availability. The good news for both Packers fans and fantasy managers is that the injury is on Love's non-throwing hand, but this is still something to monitor throughout the remainder of the preseason. Love profiles as a mid-to-low-end QB2 in fantasy who needs passing volume to be a consistent contributor. If he were to miss time, Malik Willis would be the favorite to step in at quarterback in Green Bay, which would significantly impact the fantasy outlook of the Packers' pass-catchers.
Aug 12, 2025 10:55 AM EST
Green Bay Packers quarterback Jordan Love said he's "got a lot of confidence" in rookie wide receiver Matthew Golden, per Matt Schneidman of The Athletic. Golden worked with the first-team offense in Green Bay's first preseason game on Saturday against the New York Jets. A first-round draft pick out of Texas, Golden has an opportunity to become the lead target-getter for the Packers in 2025. His role could become even larger if third-year wide receiver Jayden Reed (foot) is forced to miss time as a result of a sprained foot. Golden has tremendous upside in fantasy and could see his average draft position continue to rise throughout the remainder of the preseason.
Aug 10, 2025 10:15 PM EST
Green Bay Packers quarterback Jordan Love got his feet wet with 12 offensive snaps in the Packers' preseason opener against the New York Jets. Love played the team's first two series, completing one pass in five attempts for seven yards, a slant to first-round rookie Matthew Golden. Love's receivers were shaky in his two series, with Romeo Doubs seeing two targets, Malik Heath seeing one, and tight end Luke Musgrave getting the downfield target. Injuries and a run-heavy approach to the Packers' offense led to a production dip from Love in 2024, but Love is a solid bounce-back candidate in 2025 to return to the QB1 ranks. For now, draft Love as a QB2 with upside residing in his team's ability to score a ton of points.
Aug 10, 2025 12:16 AM EST
Green Bay Packers quarterback Jordan Love missed two full games last year with a sprained MCL in his knee and parts of two more games with a groin injury. It played a part in Love ranking 34th with 83 rushing yards, according to TruMedia. Offensive coordinator Adam Stenavich said he'd love for Love to run a little more in 2025. The Athletic's Matt Schneidman writes that Love using his legs more "would unlock another dimension to Green Bay's offense." Love is fully healthy this year after not routinely practicing until around the midway point last year. In 2023, the 26-year-old signal-caller ran 50 times for 247 yards and four touchdowns while playing a full season. Injuries caused Love to take a step back last year, but with better health and more rushing chances, he could easily bounce back as a nice QB2 in fantasy with upside.
Aug 7, 2025 2:18 PM EST
Green Bay Packers head coach Matt LaFleur essentially confirmed that quarterback Jordan Love will play in the preseason opener on Saturday against the New York Jets, according to Zach Jacobson of 247 Sports. LaFleur said the team will do their best to give all four QBs meaningful reps in the first preseason game this weekend. Love will probably see a series or two before giving way to Malik Willis, Sean Clifford and Taylor Elgersma. Even though receiver Christian Watson (knee) could miss half of the season while rehabbing a torn ACL, Love will have plenty of targets in the passing game after the Packers added Matthew Golden in the first round in April. The 26-year-old took a slight step back in 2024 with 3,389 passing yards, 25 touchdowns and 11 interceptions in 15 regular-season starts. Love is a QB2 in fantasy with upside.
Aug 7, 2025 2:11 PM EST
When asked who the Green Bay Packers' most impressive newcomer has been this summer at training camp, quarterback Jordan Love said rookie first-round wide receiver Matthew Golden without hesitation. "He's gonna be a stud," Love said. "Very aggressive hands, smooth route-runner, he's got speed." There will once again be plenty of competition for targets in Green Bay's receivers room in 2025, but the 22-year-old Golden has looked the part in camp and has been working with the first-team offense. Christian Watson (knee) could miss around half the 2025 season while recovering from an ACL tear, and it wouldn't be a surprise if Golden is running in starting three-wide sets with Jayden Reed and Romeo Doubs/Dontayvion Wicks. At the very least, the speedy Golden could be Love's go-to deep threat in his first NFL season, making him worth a look as a WR4/5 in redraft fantasy leagues.
Aug 6, 2025 5:30 PM EST
Green Bay Packers quarterback Jordan Love put up a lackluster performance at one of the most inopportune times during the Packers' 22-10 defeat to the Philadelphia Eagles on Sunday afternoon. Love was 20-of-33 passing for 212 yards but threw three interceptions that potentially took points off the board when points were at a premium all game. The first came on a deep shot to Dontayvion, the second an ill-advised throw down the middle with Zack Baun in perfect position to make the pick. The third sealed the game late in the fourth quarter. Love also added 10 yards on two rushing attempts but overall, this was a disappointing outing. With Love entering his sixth season, Love will be a fringe starting fantasy quarterback for 2025.
Jan 12, 2025 8:55 PM EST
According to Tom Pelissero of the NFL Network, Green Bay Packers quarterbacks Jordan Love (elbow) and Malik Willis (thumb) are off the injury report and good to go for Sunday's playoff game against the Philadelphia Eagles. Love sustained this elbow injury during last weekend's loss to the Chicago Bears. He opened the week as a limited participant but logged two consecutive full sessions to end the week. Willis replaced Love in Week 18 and followed the same practice pattern. Fantasy managers should expect Love to continue operating as the QB1, but Willis will be available if he suffers a setback during the game. Over his past seven full games (excluding Week 18), Love averaged a modest 214.3 passing yards per game with a 10:1 TD:INT ratio. He carries QB2 upside in a tough match against the Eagles, who have allowed the third-fewest PPR points to opposing QBs this season.
Jan 10, 2025 4:42 PM EST
Green Bay Packers quarterback Jordan Love (elbow) was a full participant in practice for the second straight day. It appears Love is trending in the right direction after being limited to open the week. Two straight full practices should mean Love will be active for Saturday's Wild-Card game against the Philadelphia Eagles. Love was pulled out early during the regular season finale as a precaution and it sounds like they limited to in order to keep him fresh. Barring any setbacks, Love will be out there for Saturday's game in what looks like it could be a high-scoring affair.
Jan 10, 2025 2:54 PM EST
Green Bay Packers quarterback Jordan Love (elbow) was a full participant in Thursday's practice after being limited by a right elbow injury on Wednesday. This almost certainly means he'll be available for Green Bay's NFC Wild Card matchup against the Philadelphia Eagles on Sunday, barring a setback. Love was banged up in the Week 18 loss to the Chicago Bears and did not return, but the Packers did not have much to gain from winning and likely took the cautious route with their franchise quarterback. Love was impressive in his first playoff run last season, completing over 67% of his passes, averaging 233 passing yards per game, and throwing five touchdowns to two interceptions in games against the Dallas Cowboys and San Francisco 49ers on the road. Love led the No. 7 seed Packers to the first win over a No. 2 seed in the NFL playoffs ever, and that's the challenge ahead of him again on Sunday.
Jan 9, 2025 3:02 PM EST
Green Bay Packers quarterbacks Jordan Love (elbow) and Malik Willis (undisclosed) were both limited in the first practice of the week on Wednesday, according to head coach Matt LaFleur. Love injured his right elbow in the Week 18 loss to the division-rival Chicago Bears and never returned to the game as a precaution. The 26-year-old lost feeling in his hand, but he was seen warming up on the sidelines late in the game and is expected to be fine for the wild-card playoff game on Sunday versus the Philadelphia Eagles. Love has the feeling back in his hand but has lingering soreness in his elbow, which is something to keep an eye on heading into the weekend. In addition to his injury, he lost his best deep threat in receiver Christian Watson (knee) for the rest of the year due to a torn ACL. That combined with Love's injury will make him a low-end QB for fantasy lineups during wild-card weekend.
Jan 8, 2025 3:37 PM EST
Green Bay Packers head coach Matt LaFleur said he's unsure if quarterbacks Jordan Love (elbow) and Malik Willis (undisclosed) will be limited in the first practice of the week on Wednesday. "We'll find out over the next few days," LaFleur said. Despite not knowing if Love and Willis will practice in full this week, he added that he thinks "they're going to be OK" for the wild-card playoff game this Sunday against the Eagles in Philadelphia. A right-elbow injury in the Week 18 regular-season finale against the division-rival Chicago Bears caused Love's right throwing hand to go numb, which led to Willis taking over for the rest of the game. While Love's removal was precautionary on Sunday, it's unclear if he'll be 100% this weekend against the Eagles, which will give fantasy managers pause when setting DFS lineups. Check back for Love's practice status on Wednesday.
