We had been waiting to see what the response was, and now we know.

Cardinals rookie running back Jeremiyah Love is dealing with a high ankle sprain, per sources. It makes it unlikely that Love plays again this preseason, with the team hoping he can return for the Sept. 13 regular-season opener vs the Chargers. pic.twitter.com/H0vb0R7x4k

Love was ‘s final touch of the game was also the play where he was injured, and many in the non-Cardinals media world wondered aloud if it was bad.
Jeremiyah Love – Concern for Left High Ankle sprain on his last touch, which fits the latent soreness presentation & why LaFleur didn’t commit to Week 1 for Love. Sounded like on the mild side, but we’ll have to monitor this one over the next few weeks. https://t.co/HS6DgVySCH pic.twitter.com/15nR226dXN

This is a tough one, and hopefully five weeks between the injury and game one will be more than enough for Love to rehab and get back, but a high ankle sprain is a typical three week injury, and can be a little bit of a pain to come back from.
Let’s hope for the sake of fans this is nothing lingering, and by September 13th, Love is back to feeling and moving at 100%.
I don’t care about fantasy impact (no offense to those who do) but Jeff is a good place to get information on this stuff, and I just kind of ignore the fantasy impact of things.
Jeremiyah Love High ankle sprain confirmed. Avg time missed ~3 weeks for RBs w/ close to a 25% production dip upon return (less negative impact for RBs w/ high receiving upside though). NOT avoiding Love but I won’t be betting on him in Weeks 1-3 or so. Keep drafting him. https://t.co/4aBb3RRONV
