Love injured his left medial collateral ligament on the third-to-last play of the Packers’ season-opening 34-29 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles on Sept. 6 in Brazil. He hasn’t practiced all week.
Willis appears on track to start for the Packers less than three weeks after joining the team. The Packers acquired Willis from the Tennessee Titans in exchange for a 2025 seventh-round pick in a trade that was announced Aug. 27.
