Green Bay Packers fans' hearts sank when general manager Brian Gutekunst unpromptedly opened his media availability on August 12 by announcing Jordan Love's thumb surgery. Fortunately, the team's franchise quarterback hurt his non-throwing (left) hand, and it was ostensibly a "little procedure" as advertised. But can this officially be considered a non-issue as we rapidly approach the upcoming NFL campaign?
Love seems to believe his latest injury is a thing of the past, or at least that's what he's telling himself. The 26-year-old told reporters the plan is to go into Green Bay's 2025 regular-season opener against the Detroit Lions with no holds barred.
