Matt LaFleur says Malik Willis is Packers starting quarterback until Jordan Love returns from knee injury: "If Jordan is not cleared, then we'll start Malik, and [Sean Clifford] will be the backup."
The Packers traded for Willis right before the start of the season and he jumps over Clifford as the starter if Love is out. Love could miss up to three weeks according to reports. LaFleur did say "If Jordan is not cleared," perhaps leaving the door open for Week 2. However, that seems unlikely according to other reports and he's expected to at least miss Week 2. Willis is worth picking up in deeper leagues or in two QB or superflex leagues. He hasn't shown much in his limited time with Tennessee, but the Packers are loaded with weapons on offense and with Willis's ability to run, it makes him an interesting play if needed.
