Mandatory Credit: Morgan Tencza-Imagn Images An MRI confirmed that Green Bay quarterback Jordan Love strained his groin in the Packers' win at Jacksonville, the NFL Network reported Monday.
Love's status is day-to-day and he has a chance to play in Week 9 at home against the NFC North-leading Detroit Lions (6-1), per the report.
The Packers improved to 6-2 with Sunday's 30-27 win over the Jaguars.
Love, who was sidelined for two games earlier this season with a sprained MCL in his left knee, appeared to reinjure the knee while throwing an incomplete pass with 11:50 remaining in the first quarter. He later went into the medical tent and returned to the game.
He limped through several series before the team announced he had a groin injury. He was replaced in the third quarter by Malik Willis, who played the rest of the game and guided the final drive that culminated with Brandon McManus' game-winning 24-yard field goal as time expired.
Love finished 14-of-22 passing for 196 yards and one interception. Willis went 4 of 5 for 56 yards and a touchdown.
Love, who turns 26 on Saturday, has passed for 1,547 yards, 15 touchdowns and a league-high nine interceptions in six starts this season.
