GREEN BAY, Wis. – Jordan Love has tested positive for COVID-19, leaving the Green Bay Packers without their backup quarterback heading into Sunday night’s game against the Chicago Bears.
The more pressing matter is how the team will conduct practice on Wednesday. With Aaron Rodgers nursing a broken pinky toe, his status for practice this week is uncertain. He didn’t practice at all before being the Los Angeles Rams last Sunday and only on the Friday before facing Minnesota the week prior.
Coach Matt LaFleur said on Monday that Rodgers “hopefully” can practice this week, but the team is walking the tightrope of getting him practice reps while keeping the toe feeling as normal as possible.
