Green Bay Packers fans have experienced a rollercoaster of emotions since the final moments of their season-opening loss to the Philadelphia Eagles.

Jordan Love's injury is the biggest question mark for this team moving forward, not the outcome of Friday's game.

The Packers arrived home in Green Bay on Saturday afternoon. Love will undergo tests on his knee to find out the severity of his injury, although NFL Network's Tom Pelissero reports that he has avoided damage to his ACL.

A video of Love leaving the Packers' plane has emerged, fueling speculation about his injury status.

Reporter posts video of Jordan Love getting off Packers plane after injury

In the social media age, very little goes unnoticed. Fans tracked the Packers' plane all the way home from Sao Paulo, Brazil.

Avi Carr-Gloth of NBC 26 posted a video of the players leaving the plane. Love is seen walking gingerly down the steps and uses the handrail to help him. However, he still appeared to move relatively comfortably.

With an MRI and further testing to come, we can't know anything for certain until then. But Packers fans are looking for any glimmer of optimism following Love's scary injury.

Peter Bukowski of The Leap pointed out that Love didn't appear to have a brace or sleeve on his injured leg.

Again, nobody knows anything for sure until the Packers complete further testing. It's all speculation. But is it at least potentially... possibly... maybe a positive that he was able to get down the steps without help?

We'll see. The Packers have an additional two days of recovery before their home opener against the Indianapolis Colts on September 15. They may need all of that time to make a decision on Love's status.

Hopefully, Love gets good news.
