Jeremiyah Love will not practice Wednesday because of an ankle injury, coach Mike LaFleur said, according to Underdog NFL.

What happened

LaFleur said Love will not practice Wednesday. The Cardinals host the Denver Broncos on Sunday in Week 7.

Context

Love has 51.1 PPR points in five games this season, with 67 carries for 245 rushing yards and one touchdown. He has 14 targets, 11 receptions and 36 receiving yards. His Sleeper projection for Week 7 is 7.8 PPR points.

Timeline

On Oct. 15, it was reported that Love did not practice Wednesday due to a lingering ankle issue and that his availability for Sunday’s game against the Rams was in question. LaFleur said Love’s right ankle sprain from the preseason had healed but the left ankle had bothered him the past two weeks. LaFleur said, “We want to get this ankle right.” Love played 36 of 73 snaps in the loss to the Lions on Sunday, with 12 rushes for only 22 yards.

On Oct. 16, it was reported that Tyler Allgeier was poised for a leading role out of the Cardinals backfield Sunday at the Rams with Love sidelined in Week 6.

Depth chart

Tyler Allgeier is RB1 on the Cardinals depth chart. He has 40.1 PPR points in six games, with 53 carries for 157 yards and one touchdown. Zonovan Knight is RB2. He has 15.0 PPR points in six games, with 18 carries for 112 yards.

What’s next

The Cardinals host the Broncos on Sunday, October 25.

LaFleur: Jeremiyah Love (ankle) won't practice Wednesday.

🏈 Fantasy impact

Love’s absence from Wednesday’s practice is a concern for his availability for Sunday’s game against the Broncos. If he cannot play, Tyler Allgeier would likely see an increased workload. Allgeier has 40.1 PPR points this season, while Zonovan Knight has 15.0. Allgeier is the more proven fantasy asset, but neither is a must-start against Denver’s defense. Fantasy managers should monitor Love’s practice status later in the week before making lineup decisions.
