NFL Network’s Mike Garafolo reports Cardinals first-round RB Jeremiyah Love is 50/50 to play in Week 1 as he works back from a high ankle sprain.
Garafolo says Love is progressing, but nobody really knows about his Week 1 status at the moment. Per Garafolo, the Cardinals want to see how he progresses over the next week or so before making any final defcisions.
Love, 21, was a two-year starter at Notre Dame. He won the Doak Walker Award and Consensus All-American honors in 2025 as a junior and declared early for the 2026 NFL Draft.
He signed a four-year, $53,869,434 rookie contract that includes a $35,637,768 signing bonus.
For his three-year college career at Notre Dame, Love appeared in 41 games and recorded 433 rushing attempts for 2,882 yards (6.7 YPC) and 36 touchdowns, along with 63 receptions for 594 yards (9.4 YPC) and six touchdowns.
We will have more on Love as it becomes available.
