    It appears that, for now, Packers quarterback Jordan Love has avoided the worst following his injury on the final drive of Friday’s game .

    Love sustained an MCL sprain that’ll sideline him for three to four weeks, according to ESPN, but the injury, which followed a report earlier Saturday from NFL Network that his ACL remained intact, won’t end his season.

    When Love attempted to dump the ball to running back Josh Jacobs while escaping pressure in the fourth quarter, Eagles defensive lineman Jalen Carter grabbed his leg and Josh Sweat shoved him to the ground — and at some point during that sequence, Love’s left leg appeared to buckle.

    The Packers lost to the Eagles, 34-29, on Friday in Brazil, with Love — who signed a four-year, $220 million extension in July — throwing for 260 yards, two touchdowns and one interception before the injury.
