Green Bay Packers quarterback Jordan Love was said to be facing a multi-week absence after suffering an MCL injury in Week 1. Coach Matt LaFleur, however, is not talking that way.

LaFleur said Wednesday that the door was “pretty open” to Love playing in Week 2 against the Indianapolis Colts. Previous reports had suggested that Love would likely be sidelined for “a few weeks” as he worked his way back from the injury.

This might just be LaFleur playing games, but he has consistently kept the door open for Love to play in Week 2. Even when revealing the team’s backup plan , he refused to rule Love out of contention.

At this point, it would still count as a surprise if Love suited up for the Colts game. As long as LaFleur keeps leaning into the possibility, however, it is worth keeping an eye on.
