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.

Updating a previous report, Minnesota Vikings quarterback J.J. McCarthy (ankle) is expected to miss two to four weeks with a high-ankle sprain that he suffered in Sunday night's loss to the Atlanta Falcons, sources told ESPN's Adam Schefter. Not only has McCarthy looked pretty bad in seven of the eight quarters he's played in the first two games of his NFL career, but now he's dealing with a multi-week injury. The good news is that when he's ready to return, he'll have receiver Jordan Addison back from suspension. Still, those expecting the 22-year-old former first-rounder to come in right away and play like Sam Darnold in head coach Kevin O'Connell's offense have had a rude awakening. McCarthy deserves to be stashed in superflex and dynasty/keeper leagues, but in the meantime, veteran Carson Wentz could be a sneaky QB2 in two-QB leagues, beginning in Week 3 against the Cincinnati Bengals.
Still trying to decide between Love and McCarthy? Check on the latest news to make sure both players are active and healthy. Our PPR projections show that Jordan Love is projected to score 16.4 points this week while J.J. McCarthy is projected to score 0.0 points.
