Recapping week one on Fantasy Football Today Express.

1:06.7

All right, we're going to start with the injuries.

1:08.4

Adam Azor and Jamie Eisenberg here.

1:10.3

Let's talk about the Packers passing game.

1:48.5

Jordan Love out three to six weeks with the sprained MCL, Indianapolis, Tennessee, Minnesota, and the Rams are their next four games. Do you have any confidence in anyone? You know what I'll even throw in Josh Jacobs? Do you have any confidence in any Packers while Jordan Love is out? just Jacobs because the nature of running backs and how many touches he'll get, I think he'll, you know, if he wasn't already, just based on the amount of work he was going to get, you know, the 1A in this offense behind Jordan Love, now he's going to be the focal point.

So the last two injuries I'll talk about,

2:17.5

and by the way, we're not talking about the Sunday night injuries. That game is in progress.

2:20.9

I know Puka Nekua left. James and Williams looks okay. I don't know Puka status. But David

2:26.0

Nijoku and Jake Ferguson, they both left with ankle and knee injuries respectively. So if I need

2:32.2

a tight end, how much do you believe in Isaiah likely? I know he's

2:37.1

going to be the guy to get, but how much do you believe in him? I mean, you have to believe in

2:41.8

him quite a bit after the targets and the production. You know, this is a, an offense. It's not
