The Vikings and Packers meet in a pivotal NFC North matchup at Lambeau Field in Week 4 and the biggest questions ahead of the border battle is whether quarterback Jordan Love will be back on the field after suffering an MCL sprain in Green Bay's season-opening loss to the Eagles.
"My understanding is that he is targeting Week 5," Ian Rapoport said Sunday morning on NFL Network. "The injury is not quite as bad as they originally thought. If he only misses three games, which is what this would be, excellent-excellent outcome for the Green Bay Packers." LaFleur has been coy about his quarterback's status. On Monday, he said he couldn't give reporters a percentage on the chances of Love playing this week. On Wednesday, he said the door to playing against the Colts is "pretty open."
The MCL is a ligament in the knee that connects the femur to the tibia. According to WebMD, the term "sprain" is used when the ligament is stretched or torn. There are three levels of an MCL injury: Grade 1 , Grade 2 and Grade 3 .
