What happened: The ankle was more sore than expected Saturday following the preseason game. Mike LaFleur said Arizona will reevaluate Love after the week.

Why it matters: The absence interrupts preseason evaluation for the No. 3 overall pick. It also removes a contender from Arizona's running back competition during the next practice cycle.
