Former Tennessee Titans quarterback Malik Willis looked primed to face his former team with the Green Bay Packers coming to Nashville in Week 3, but there appears to be at least a chance that doesn't happen.
According to Dominique Yates of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel, Packers starting quarterback Jordan Love was practicing Wednesday, but his exact participation isn't known yet as of this writing since the Packers haven't released their official injury report.
Love, who is dealing with a knee injury he suffered in Week 1, was reportedly close to playing in Week 2, so it's fair to assume he's got a shot to suit up in Week 3. That would be a quick recovery, though, as Love was initially expected to miss multiple weeks.

Willis got the nod for the Packers in Week 2 and completed 12-of-14 passes for 122 yards and one touchdown to no interceptions. Despite limited production from the quarterback position, Green Bay still managed to win, 16-10.
It was clear that Willis is still very limited as a passer, something Titans fans are very familiar with. Knowing that, Love playing would be a huge upgrade for Green Bay and will make the Titans' job more difficult.
But nothing is set in stone yet for Love, who will have to make it through a week of practices before getting cleared to play. We'll have to keep an eye on the injury reports as the week progresses.
