Packers aren’t ruling out Jordan Love for Colts game even as Malik Willis prepares to start

Associated Press  

GREEN BAY, Wis. — Green Bay Packers coach Matt LaFleur still isn’t ruling out the possibility Jordan Love could play Sunday against the Indianapolis Colts as the quarterback recovers from a knee injury that has kept him from practicing. “Just trying to, whatever we have in each day, try to come in, diagnose it, study it the night before and be able to go out there and execute.” LaFleur compared the situation to his 2018 stint as Tennessee’s offensive coordinator, when the Titans turned to Blaine Gabbert after starting quarterback Marcus Mariota got injured in the season opener. “I wasn’t ready yet, but I had to go in,” Willis said Wednesday of that rookie experience. “I’m a different player than then.” Willis said he has learned plenty since and is more prepared for this second chance to start. Jayden Reed said he was impressed once he saw Willis’ passes “That he could spin it, that was just my first thought when I first saw him throw the ball,” Reed said.
