2024 Fantasy Outlook
Just as panic was setting in last season, Love proved he was the Packers' next franchise quarterback. The first eight weeks after Love took over for Aaron Rodgers were disconcerting, to say the least, for Packers fans. He had an 11:8 TD:INT and 78.2 passer rating and the team was 2-5. But things started to change Week 9, and in the last 10 games Love threw 21 TD passes to just three interceptions as the Packers went 7-3 to make the playoffs. In that span, he ranked fourth in the NFL in completion percentage (68.7), sixth in on-target percentage (75.9), sixth in TD percentage (6.1) and eighth in YPA (7.7). On attempts of 20-plus yards, his 20 completions were second only to Dak Prescott’s 26 as he went deep on 11.0 percent of his attempts (11th). Love became the third QB in NFL history with 4,000-plus passing yards, 30-plus TD passes and a playoff win in his first season as a starter. The Packers were the youngest team to win a postseason game in NFL history, led by four wideouts and two tight ends who topped 300 yards as rookies or second-year pros. The team had a quiet offseason apart from replacing RB Aaron Jones with Josh Jacobs, banking on continued improvement from the talented young core and an 11-player draft class that includes two top-100 picks for the offense (OT Jordan Morgan, 25th; RB MarShawn Lloyd, 88th). Love has no shortage of weapons and also adds a bit of rushing value (247 yards, four TDs), giving him a chance to repeat last year's QB5 finish, at least. Read Past Outlooks

Three-to-six week timeline
Love is expected to miss somewhere between three to six weeks following an MCL sprain suffered during the waning moments of Friday's Week 1 loss to the Eagles, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.
ANALYSIS
Speculation from social media doctors suggested a wide range of outcomes after Eagles defensive tackle Jalen Carter unintentionally rolled into Love's plant leg Friday, but it seems confirmed now after multiple scans and tests that the star quarterback escaped what initially appeared to be a serious injury. There's even been initial rumblings that Love could return on the shorter side of the reported timeline, but it's worth noting the Packers have historically been cautious when it comes to knee and soft-tissue injuries in past seasons. It's unclear if Malik Willis, who was traded to the Packers just two weeks ago, will operate as the team's starter in the ensuing weeks or if the displaced backup from last season, Sean Clifford, will at least get a crack at the starting job due to the former likely still learning the playbook. For Love fantasy managers, the next key note to monitor will be whether he can avoid a stint on the mandated four-week injured reserve list.

2020
It’s time for Love in Green Bay. With Aaron Rodgers jetting to New York, the 2020 first-round pick is finally a starter after three years as an understudy. If he's to make Packers fans not long for Rodgers, he’ll have to do it with a young WR corps after veterans Allen Lazard and Randall Cobb joined Rodgers in New York. What’s left is an unimpressive collection of rookies, second-year “vets” and practice squad players. Christian Watson and Romeo Doubs, both of whom had up-and-down rookie seasons last year, top the WR depth chart. The Packers drafted three wide receivers, highlighted by second-round pick Jayden Reed (5-11, 187, with 4.45 speed). They used another second-round pick on TE Luke Musgrave, who with 4.61 speed at 6-6, 253, has little competition for tight-end targets. At 6-4, 219, Love has a strong arm and is mobile, which could give him a stable rushing floor while the passing game rounds into form. The Packers hedged their bets with a one-year extension worth a guaranteed $13.5 million, rather than picking up Love’s fifth-year option for a guaranteed $20.3 million for 2024. And for this season at least, Love might be handing it to Aaron Jones and AJ Dillon behind a good offensive line more often than not.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Suffers leg injury in opener
Love was helped off the field in the fourth quarter of Friday night's Week 1 matchup against the Eagles with a lower left leg injury, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Love needed help getting to the sideline, and eventually, to the locker room after the contest. Head coach Matt LaFleur did not have an update on Love in his postgame press conference, and the quarterback did not speak to reporters. Malik Willis entered the game and took the final two snaps for Green Bay, and he's currently next in line on the Packers' quarterback depth chart.
