NFL Week 3 Injury Report: Playing time decisions for Justin Herbert and Jordan Love, Justin Jefferson to play

Two star quarterbacks will see game time on Sunday. Chargers quarterback Justin Herbert is battling a severe ankle sprain, while Packers signal-caller Jordan Love is recovering quickly from his knee injury, making him eligible for Sunday's game.

Herbert and Love are the headliners, but there are plenty of other notable injuries to sift through. Here's a look at each team's final injury report heading into Week 3, along with an analysis of what those injuries could mean for Sunday.

Giants: CB Nick McCloud (knee) OUT; OLB Brian Burns (groin), ILB Darius Muasau (knee) QUESTIONABLE
Shades of brown: TE David Njoku (ankle), RB Pierre Strong Jr. (hamstring) OUT; OT Jack Conklin (knee), OT Jedrick Wills (knee) QUESTIONABLE

Giants pass rusher Kayvon Thibodeaux (shoulder) is not reported injured for Sunday after appearing on the injury report this week. For the Browns, Wills was limited in practice all week, while Conklin was limited after not appearing on the injury report the past two days. Fortunately for the Browns, they have a very capable backup tackle in James Hudson III, a four-year veteran who started the team's first two games.

Packer: OT Jordan Morgan (shoulder) OUT; DB Carrington Valentine (ankle) QUESTIONABLE; QB Jordan Love (knee) QUESTIONABLE
Titans: RB Tyjae Spears (ankle) QUESTIONABLE

Love, who was originally scheduled to miss at least two weeks, could be out just one week if he can play Sunday. Love has been limited in practice all week after missing last Sunday's win over the Colts. Love's decision on the field will not be made until the game, but Malik Willis (who made 12 of 14 shots in last week's win) is ready to face his former team if Love can't play.

Spears, who was a full participant in practice on Friday, has a good chance of winning with the Titans.

Bears: WR Keenan Allen (heel, personal), FB Khari Blasingame (hand/knee), DL Zacch Pickens (groin), RB Travis Homer (finger) OUT; OL Nate Davis (groin) QUESTIONABLE
Colts: None

With Allen still out, rookie Rome Odunze should see more targets after being targeted just once in the Bears' first three games. Davis was a full-on Friday, so there's a good chance he'll play Sunday.

Texans: RB Dameon Pierce (hamstring) OUT; RB Joe Mixon (ankle) QUESTIONABLE; C Jarrett Patterson (calf), C Juice Scruggs (groin), S MJ Stewart (knee) QUESTIONABLE
Vikings: WR Jordan Addison (ankle), OLB Dallas Turner (knee), LB Ivan Pace Jr. (quad) OUT

Mixon hasn't practiced all week, so it looks like Dare Ogunbowale and Cam Akers will get the job done for Houston. Patterson didn't practice on Friday, while Scruggs has been limited the past two days.

While Addison's absence hurts, the Vikings will have Justin Jefferson (quad), who was a full participant in practice on Friday. Look for Jalen Nailor to get more targets without Addison.

Eagle: WR AJ Brown (hamstring) OUT; CB CJ Gardner-Johnson (foot) QUESTIONABLE
Saints: DT Khalen Saunders (calf) OUT; LB D'Marco Jackson (calf), TE Taysom Hill (chest), T Landon Young (foot), S Will Harris (shin), WR AT Perry (illness) QUESTIONABLE

The Eagles desperately need a wide receiver other than DeVonta Smith to fill in for Brown's absence. That player could be Britain Covey, who has caught all six balls he's faced in two games. However, it's safe to assume that Smith, Saquon Barkley and tight end Dallas Goedert will catch most of Jalen Hurts' balls.

New Orleans will have to deal with a number of injuries if it wants to be 3-0. Perry was a full participant in practice on Friday, while Harris, Jackson and Hill were limited. Young did not practice for the third day in a row.

Chargers: Junior Colson (hamstring) OUT; QB Justin Herbert (ankle), WR Josh Palmer (elbow/calf), OLB Bud Dupree (illness), S Alohi Gilman (knee), CB Ja'Sir Taylor (fibula) QUESTIONABLE
Steelers: G Isaac Seumalo (pec), TE MyCole Pruitt (knee) OUT; OT Troy Fautanu (knee), QB Russell Wilson (calf) QUESTIONABLE

As previously mentioned, Herbert announced on Friday that he is currently dealing with an upper ankle injury. Herbert did not practice on Friday, was limited on Thursday and did not practice on Wednesday. Backup Easton Stick, who had an 0-4 record as the team's starting quarterback in 2023, would start against Pittsburgh if Herbert is unable to play.

For the Steelers, Fautanu was injured on Friday, meaning former first-round pick Broderick Jones could start after sitting on the bench in last week's win over the Broncos. Rookie wideout Roman Wilson is expected to make his NFL debut after an ankle injury sidelined him for the entire preseason.

Dolphins: WR Grant DuBose (shoulder) OUT; RB Raheem Mostert (chest), WR Malik Washington (quad) QUESTIONABLE
Seahawks: LB Uchenna Nwosu (knee) OUT; LB Jerome Baker (hamstring), RB Kenneth Walker III (oblique), T George Fant (knee) QUESTIONED; S K'Von Wallace (shoulder), TE Pharaoh Brown (foot), LB Boye Mafe (knee), WR Laviska Shenault Jr. (foot) QUESTIONED

A long injury report for Seattle. With Walker's participation questionable, Zach Charbonnet is expected to continue to do most of the running for Seattle. De'Von Achane will take on the work for Miami with Mostert's participation questionable. Jeff Wilson should also get some work after averaging 5.2 yards per carry in Week 2 against Buffalo.

Ravens: G Malaesale Aumavae-Laulu (personal) OUT; WR Deonte Harty (calf), LB David Ojabo (quad), CB Nate Wiggins (neck/concussion) QUESTIONABLE
Cowboys: WR Jalen Brooks (ankle), DT Mazi Smith (back), TE John Stephens Jr. (hamstring) QUESTIONABLE

Harty and Ojabo were full participants in practice on Friday, while Wiggins was limited for the second straight day. As expected, Cowboys wideout CeeDee Lamb (ankle) and cornerback Trevon Diggs (foot) are back in action after spending this week on the injured list. Each of the Cowboys' players in question was limited on Friday.
