Jordan Love: throwing hand went numb after elbow hit

THE FACT. Packers quarterback Jordan Love said a hit to his elbow left his throwing hand numb during Sunday's 20-17 overtime win over the Jets, per SB Nation. Love stayed in and finished 16 of 29 for 145 yards and two touchdowns. Green Bay plays Thursday against Atlanta, and his status is due on Monday's injury report.
THE VERDICT. Redraft: keep starting him. Finishing an overtime game after the hit is the strongest signal available, and nothing reported points to structural damage. Check Monday's practice designation before locking lineups. Dynasty: no change. DFS: the short week, a sore elbow and a receiving room missing Jayden Reed make him a fade in tournaments until Wednesday's report confirms he is full.
