Arizona Cardinals rookie running back Jeremiyah Love is placed on injured reserve after suffering a high-ankle sprain, according to multiple reports. ESPN says sources also indicate he is expected to miss roughly 4–5 weeks.
Several outlets tie the injury to Love’s game action against the Dallas Cowboys, while Yahoo and CBS describe the move as another setback in his rookie season. Newsweek and Yahoo also cite reporting attributed to Ian Rapoport regarding the Cardinals’ decision. Coverage also extends beyond the injury itself, with at least one outlet framing the consequences for fantasy football lineups and waiver-wire options.
Across the reports, the central points are consistent: Love heads to IR because of the high-ankle sprain, and he is expected to be unavailable for at least several weeks. Yahoo’s additional details include that it would be his third ankle-related injury of the rookie season, while other outlets focus more narrowly on the IR placement and expected time out.
