Green Bay fans held their collective breath when hearing that quarterback Jordan Love will miss the rest of the preseason with a thumb injury that requires surgery. Lucky thing is that it is his non-throwing hand. The injury may be a nuisance for Love but it should not affect his ability to throw the football. GM Brian Gutekunst has stated he should return for week 1 of the regular season. Injuries have hampered Love’s time as a starter. The hope is he can stay healthy enough to take this Packers offense to another level with the addition of rookie wide receiver Matthew Golden.

Jordan Love is still a valuable fantasy quarterback and this injury should have no impact on his outlook. He has the potential to be a top 5 fantasy quarterback as he did in 2023. It is easy to forget this will only be his 3rd season as a full time starter. He is a steal at QB17, be sure to grab him before someone else does.
