Love (knee) is listed as active and will start Sunday against the Vikings, Mike Spofford of the Packers' official site reports.

Love is a bit more than three weeks removed from sustaining a Grade 1-to-2 MCL sprain in his left knee in the waning moments of a Week 1 loss to the Eagles in Brazil. He's slowly but surely ramped up his activity level the last two weeks, yet he didn't manage more than a limited practice in advance of Sunday's game. Still, Love has made enough progress in his recovery to take over direction of the Packers offense, while fill-in starter Malik Willis will return to a backup role. According to Tom Pelissero of NFL Network, Love is expected to wear a brace of the outside of the knee in question, which may impact his mobility somewhat.
