Green Bay Packers quarterback Jordan Love will start Sunday's game against the Dallas Cowboys after recovering from an ankle injury that had his status in doubt. Love, who suffered the ankle scare earlier in the week, participated fully in practice and has been cleared by the medical staff to take the field at AT&T Stadium.
The fourth-year quarterback's return provides a significant boost for the Packers' offense as they face a formidable Cowboys defense. Love has thrown for 2,148 yards and 18 touchdowns through eight games this season, establishing himself as one of the league's emerging young signal-callers.
Backup quarterback Malik Willis had been preparing to start in Love's absence, but the starter's quick recovery means Green Bay will have its full offensive arsenal available for the prime-time NFC matchup. Kickoff is scheduled for 4:25 p.m. ET on Fox.
