Love completed 20 of 33 passes for 212 yards, no touchdowns and three interceptions in Sunday's 22-10 loss to the Eagles. He added two rushes for 10 yards. Love was without some of his top pass-catching options for significant portions of the game and was also dealing with a beat-up offensive line. Even with that context, it was a disappointing showing, highlighted by an interception shortly before halftime that denied the Packers a potential scoring opportunity. Love did find some rhythm in the second half, as he completed 11 of his 18 passes for 142 yards, though it wasn't enough to complete the comeback bid. He'll enter the offseason looking to get healthy after enduring a 2024 season that included both upper- and lower-body injuries, and he'll be back to lead the Packers' offense once again in 2025.
Coach Matt LaFleur said Love (elbow) practiced fully Thursday, Bill Huber of SI.com reports. LaFleur added that Love "looked good" after kicking off the week as limited. Love relayed Wednesday that his right hand didn't have any lingering numbness, but his right elbow still had some soreness, per Matt Schneidman of The Athletic. With an uncapped session under his belt, Love is good to go for Sunday's wild-card game at Philadelphia, against whom he went for 260 yards, two touchdowns and one interception on 17-for-34 passing back in Week 1.
Head coach Matt LaFleur said Love (elbow) was a limited participant at Wednesday's practice, Wes Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site reports. Love made an early departure from this past Sunday's loss to the Bears with an elbow injury that resulted in a loss of feeling in his right hand. He was able to take part in Wednesday's team stretch and warmups, and in the ensuing practice outside that was closed to the media, he was able to throw, as LaFleur told Matt Schneidman of The Athletic. Love later mentioned to Schneidman that he doesn't have any lingering numbness in his hand but does have soreness in his elbow, which was the reason for his limited listing. Love's activity level Thursday and Friday likely will be key for his ability to suit up for Sunday's wild-card game in Philadelphia.
Love (elbow) took part in Wednesday's team stretch and warmups before the Packers went outside for practice, the latter of which was closed to the media, Ryan Wood of USA Today reports. Love banged his right elbow early in the second quarter of this past Sunday's loss to the Bears, and while he was seen throwing multiple times on the sideline, he wasn't able to return to the game. Head coach Matt LaFleur told Matt Schneidman of The Athletic afterward that Love lost feeling in his right throwing hand as a result of the play, and LaFleur then said Monday that the quarterback is "going to be OK," but was unsure how much he would be able to handle in practice as Green Bay prepares for Sunday's wild-card game at Philadelphia, per Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com. Wednesday's injury report will reveal Love's activity level to begin the week.
Packers head coach Matt LaFleur said Monday that he thinks Love (hand) is "going to be okay" but that it's not yet clear whether he'll be limited in practice heading into Sunday's wild-card round matchup against the Eagles, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports. Love was forced out of Sunday's loss to the Bears in the second quarter after falling early on his right elbow, an event which the quarterback said resulted in him losing feeling in his throwing hand. LaFleur called Love's withdrawal precautionary Sunday, but it's unclear at this point whether the starting quarterback will be 100 percent healthy by the time Sunday's road playoff contest rolls around. In the wake of Christian Watson (knee) sustaining a season-ending torn ACL, Love's top three wide receivers now will be Jayden Reed, Romeo Doubs (illness) and Dontayvion Wicks, with Bo Melton and Malik Heath available as depth contributors.

Love also relayed that he isn't 100 percent postgame, but he feels confident about his odds to be available in the wild-card round at Philadelphia next weekend. Malik Willis stepped in for Love in Week 18, completing 10 of 13 passes for 136 yards, no touchdowns and no interceptions, notching a three-yard carry and losing his only fumble.
Coach Matt LaFleur said after Sunday's loss to the Bears that Love (elbow) could have returned but was held out as a precaution, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports. Love didn't see a snap after banging his right elbow early in the second quarter while completing a short pass to RB Josh Jacobs that wqas negated by penalty. At various points during the contest, though, Love was seen throwing passes on the sideline, only to remain there while Malik Willis led the offense. Love's status now will bear monitoring as the Packers gear up for a wild-card game at Philadelphia next weekend.
Love sustained a right elbow injury during Sunday's game versus the Bears. Love seemed to get injured while trying to get the ball to RB Josh Jacobs in a crowded backfield early in the second quarter. Love was seen being tended to on the sideline before the Packers deemed him questionable to return. Malik Willis will direct the offense for as long as Love is sidelined.
Love completed 19 of 30 passes for 185 yards, one touchdown and no interceptions in Sunday's 27-25 loss to the Vikings. He added one rush for six yards. Love and the Packers couldn't get anything going to begin the game, running five or fewer offensive plays in four of their five possessions in the first half. He managed to turn things around a bit in the final two quarters as the team made a furious comeback, with the highlights being a 35-yard completion down the seam to Tucker Kraft and a three-yard touchdown pass to Malik Heath. Overall, Love has had poor results for fantasy purposes since Green Bay's Week 10 bye, as he's topped 250 yards just twice and thrown for multiple scores only three times in seven games.
