Breaking down Packers' final injury report of Week 2 vs. Colts

The Green Bay Packers listed quarterback Jordan Love, receiver Jayden Reed and running back MarShawn Lloyd as questionable to play on the final injury report before facing the Indianapolis Colts in Week 2.

How will the injury situation affect Sunday’s showdown?

Here’s an in-depth breakdown of the Packers’ final injury report ahead of Week 2:

Questionable (3)

QB Jordan Love: The big one. Are the Packers just posturing for the Colts, or does Love have a legitimate chance to play Sunday? He didn’t practice all week but is listed as questionable. All along, Matt LaFleur said Love will be given the week to get physically ready to play, and he wouldn’t need to practice to play. We’ll see. Maybe he’ll truly be a game-time decision based on addition healing in the knee over the next two days. Malik Willis would start if Love is inactive. Sean Clifford is the No. 3 quarterback.

WR Jayden Reed: A late add to the injury report on Friday. Reed, who led the NFL in receiving yards in Week 1, has a shin/calf injury. Dontayvion Wicks and Bo Melton (and possibly Luke Musgrave as a big slot) would get more snaps if Reed isn’t available or limited. If Malik Willis starts, not having Reed and his versatile ability as a playmaker would really hurt.

RB MarShawn Lloyd: The rookie’s long-awaited return could arrive this week. Watch for practice squad elevation on Saturday. If the Packers don’t bring up a back, Lloyd will likely make his NFL debut on Sunday. He brings an explosive and dynamic element to the offense, even if he’s a backup.

No status designation

The following players have no status designation and will be available to play on Sunday vs. the Colts: linebacker Edgerrin Cooper, defensive lineman Kenny Clark, cornerback Corey Ballentine, running back Josh Jacobs and linebacker Quay Walker. Clark (toe) was upgraded to full participation on Friday’s injury report.

Colts injury report

The Colts ruled out starting safety Julian Blackmon (shoulder). Veteran Ronnie Harrison Jr. could start in his place at safety. Defensive lineman DeForest Buckner (back), defensive end Kwity Paye (hamstring) and receivert Josh Downs (ankle) as questionable. Buckner, a dominant interior defender, didn’t practice all week.
