(WNFL/247NEWSSOURCE/LEARFIELD) – The Packers released their first injury report ahead of Sunday afternoon’s showdown against the Colts at Lambeau Field in Green Bay.
Jordan Love was the only player who did not participate in yesterday’s practice as head coach Matt LaFleur refuses to rule out the star quarterback.
He’s dealing with a knee injury and Malik Willis would start if he can’t play.
Assuming that Love can’t play, LaFleur did talk about the psychological challenges of playing a couple games without your starting quarterback.
LaFleur also talked about the process for designing a game plan that works for your QB.
LaFLeur said that it’s been a good start for Willis in prepping for the potential start.
Packers center Josh Myers spoke on the first few days working the center/QB relationship with Malik Willis.
Myers talked about what he thinks Malik Willis brings to the QB position this week.
Green Bay is last in the NFC North at 0-and-1.

The Packers are looking for high school football highlight submissions that showcase impressive catches and throws, interceptions, broken tackles, fumble recoveries and other exceptional plays on offense, defense and special teams.
The top five plays each month, along with information about the teams, location of the game and players involved, will be featured in a video on packers.com and the Packers’ social media platforms. Each winning school will receive a $1,000 donation courtesy of the Packers and Head & Shoulders.
Teams who want to participate may send in one highlight per game, which will be voted on by a panel of Packers staff to determine the top five plays each month. Teams can send in highlights from multiple games, but only one highlight from each game is allowed during the months of September and October.
Highlights should be no longer than 20 seconds each and can be submitted to https://packers.files.com/u/hs-plays-month/.
