Jeremiyah Love suffers high ankle sprain ahead of season opener

Cardinals running back Jeremiyah Love sustained a high ankle sprain during his preseason debut on August 16, 2026. Although team officials have not confirmed the severity of the injury, a high ankle sprain generally requires a longer recovery period. The Cardinals are hopeful he can return for their Week 1 matchup against the Chargers. In response to the potential absence of Love, the team worked out three running backs on August 16 and ultimately signed Montrell Stewart to bolster their roster.
