Matt LaFleur: ‘No idea’ if Jordan Love plays in Week vs. Titans

Head coach Matt LaFleur said Monday that Love would “ideally” practice before returning to game action.

“I have no idea right now [about Love’s availability for Week 3],” LaFleur said. “Believe me, they’ll let us know. But I would assume that he’s, I mean, I did see Jordan in the training room. I know he’s doing everything he can. If he’s ready, he’ll be ready. If he’s not, then we’ll proceed with Malik.”

The Packers go on the road to play the Tennessee Titans (0-2) in Week 3 this Sunday. If Love can’t go, it’ll be a revenge game for Willis, whom the Titans traded to the Packers ahead of the season opener.
