Jeremiyah Love Expected to Be Active for Week 1 as Cardinals Plan Restricted Role

Coaches say he is trending well and will likely be held to a limited snap count to protect his recent ankle recovery.

Overview

  • Reports on Friday say ESPN sources expect Love to be active for Sunday’s game against the Los Angeles Chargers, though the final call remains a game‑time decision.
  • Love suffered a left high‑ankle sprain on Aug. 13 and missed more than three weeks while rehabbing before returning to limited practice this week.
  • The Cardinals listed Love as a limited participant on practice reports and assigned him a questionable game designation on the official injury log.
  • Coaches signal they will ease Love back into the offense with a reduced workload, likely leaning on Tyler Allgeier for early‑down carries and using Love more in passing and matchup situations.
  • Because Love was the No. 3 overall pick, his Week 1 availability and snap count will shape Arizona’s game plan, opponent preparation, and short‑term fantasy expectations, so the decisive items to watch are his pregame status and snap totals.
