UPDATE: The Packers updated quarterback Jordan Love’s status to doubtful for Sunday’s game against the Indianapolis Colts. Love was originally listed as questionable on Friday’s injury report with a knee injury. QB Sean Clifford was elevated from the practice squad to the active roster to back up QB Malik Willis vs. Indianapolis.
GREEN BAY – The Packers have listed quarterback Jordan Love (knee) as questionable for Sunday’s home opener against the Indianapolis Colts.
Running back MarShawn Lloyd (hamstring) and receiver Jayden Reed (calf/shin) are also questionable.
Love didn’t practice this week after injuring his knee late in last Friday’s 34-29 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles, but all week Head Coach Matt LaFleur has left the door open to Love playing.
“He’s doing good,” said LaFleur after Friday’s practice. “He’s got a great attitude and is working hard and getting better every day.”
If Love can’t go, third-year quarterback Malik Willis will start in his place.
Reed was added to the injury report after being limited at Friday’s practice. The second-year receiver is coming off a career day against the Philadelphia Eagles in which he registered 171 total yards (138 receiving and 33 rushing) and two touchdowns.
The Packers didn’t issue a game status for the following players who are all expected to be available vs. the Colts: defensive lineman Kenny Clark (toe), running back Josh Jacobs (back), linebacker Quay Walker (groin), cornerback Corey Ballentine (oblique), and linebacker Edgerrin Cooper (knee).
Clark was a full participant on Friday after being limited on Wednesday and Thursday.
The Colts have ruled out safety Julian Blackmon (shoulder) and listed three questionable: defensive tackle DeForest Buckner (back), defensive end Kwity Paye (hamstring) and receiver Josh Downs (ankle).
Neither Blackmon nor Buckner practiced this week. Paye returned on Friday in a limited capacity.
Kicker Matt Gay (hernia) didn’t receive a game status and is expected to play.
