Packers QB Jordan Love (groin) in doubt for Week 9

Oct 28, 2024

Packers QB Jordan Love is dealing with a groin injury that is considered minor, however, Love's status for Week 9 is in doubt.

Fantasy Impact:

If Love sits out Week 9, and with the bye in Week 10, he could hopefully be ready to go for Week 11, which is a big game at the Bears in the early slate of games that Sunday. Willis played well filling in for Love earlier this season, so it would seem to make sense the Packers wouldn't push Love to play this week, instead opting to give him two weeks off. Love's status should still be monitored this week, but given the way this sets up, Love owners may want to start planning ahead now.

“I will be playing on Sunday. Very excited, can’t pass up playing the Packers. I will be out there for sure.”

George Kittle says he’s good to go for Sunday

Fantasy Impact:

Kittle returns to a great matchup against a Packers defense that ranks 26th in TE aFPA. He should be fired up as a high-end TE1 once again.

Per Bears head coach Matt Eberflus: Ryan Bates remains in the concussion protocol. Elijah Hicks (ankle) and D'Andre Swift (groin) won't practice.

Teven Jenkins will be limited.

Related Players: Roschon Johnson, Travis Homer

Fantasy Impact:

This is definitely a situation to keep an eye on, as Johnson would have a huge workload if Swift were to miss Week 12. Homer has three rush attempts and zero targets on the year.
