    time, TV, Jordan Love injury update

    play

    The pregame hype for the NFC North showdown between the 6-2 Green Bay Packers and the 6-1 Detroit Lions Sunday afternoon at Lambeau Field is well deserved.

    But it will be overshadowed this week by the status of quarterback Jordan Love.

    Love hurt his groin on Sunday during the Packers’ 30-27 win over Jacksonville. While the injury is not serious, the Packers may choose to rest him. It’s 3-0 when Malik Willis comes on for Love and they have a bye after the Lions game.

    But Packers coach Matt LaFleur said Monday that Love will play Sunday if he’s healthy enough.

    “If he can go, he will go,” LaFleur said. “So we’ll see where he is by the end of the week and if we feel like he can’t protect himself then we certainly wouldn’t put him in that position.”

    Here’s an early preview of Sunday’s game:

    The Lions lead the NFC North 6-1 and are 3-0 on the road. They are third in the NFC in points scored with 234 after a 52-14 win over the Tennessee Titans on Sunday.

    Jordan Love injury update

    After an MRI Monday, Love’s status is no worse off than Sunday, when his groin injury was not thought to be serious enough to rule him out this week.

    Jaire Alexander injury update

    Packers cornerback Jaire Alexander stumbled forward as he tried to cover Jaguars tight end Evan Engram on a 14-yard touchdown pass with 1 minute, 48 seconds left. Alexander couldn’t put any weight on his right leg as Engram went up for the pass, a non-contact injury.

    Tests showed Alexander’s injury is not serious, but he is in a lot of pain, a league source said. Alexander will have to work that out to play this week, so his status is up in the air.
