Aug. 12 (UPI) -- Green Bay Packers quarterback Jordan Love will undergo thumb surgery and miss at least a week of practice, general manager Brian Gutekunst announced Tuesday.
Gutekunst told reporters that Love sustained ligament damage in the thumb on his left, non-throwing hand during the Packers' 30-10 preseason loss to the New York Jets on Saturday in Green Bay, Wis.
The Packers' general manager said Love was scheduled for surgery Tuesday morning, but is expected to be ready for Week 1.
"Jordan is having a little procedure done on his left thumb that he hurt in the game," Gutekunst said. "It will put him out a little while. Hope to have him back at practice next week. He shouldn't miss any regular season time."
