Even though Jordan Love isn't expected to play on Sunday against the Indianapolis Colts, the Green Bay Packers could get their star quarterback back on the low end of projections after he sprained his MCL.

Per The Athletic's Dianna Russini, Love playing on Sunday is "not happening" because he hasn't been medically cleared even though head coach Matt LaFleur has kept the door open for it.

Russini added that Love returning in Week 3 is considered a "long shot" and the most optimistic timeline would have him back in Week 4 against the Minnesota Vikings "if there are no snags" in his recovery.
