GREEN BAY, Wis. (AP) — Green Bay Packers quarterback Jordan Love says he lost feeling in his throwing hand before leaving Sunday’s regular-season finale, but he added that his injury shouldn′t impact his availability for the playoffs.
Love said after Green Bay’s 24-22 loss to Chicago that he was told it shouldn′t be a lingering issue and that it should go away by the time the Packers open the postseason. As the No. 7 seed in the NFC, the Packers (11-6) will play a wild-card game at Philadelphia (14-3).
“It’s feeling better,” Love said.
Coach Matt LaFleur said Love could have returned to the Bears game if necessary.
