The Green Bay Packers’ Week 1 loss to the Philadelphia São Paulo, Brazil wasn’t even the biggest concern coming out of Friday night’s game. Rather, it was a brutal-looking injury to star quarterback Jordan Love in the game’s waning seconds.
During the Packers’ final drive against the Eagles, Jordan Love had to be taken off the field after suffering a lower leg injury on a hit from Jalen Carter and Josh Sweat. Love got out of a sack and flipped a four-yard completion to Josh Jacobs to stop the clock with six seconds remaining.
Here’s a video of the hit that forced Love to miss the game’s final two plays:
With Jordan Love injured, Malik Willis (acquired via trade with the Tennessee Titans last week) had to finish out the game’s last two plays. Willis threw an incomplete pass and then was sacked by Zack Baun on the game’s final play before he could attempt a Hail Mary heave.
We’ll provide more details on Love’s status when they become available.

Jordan Love Had A Rough Outing vs. Eagles
Love’s first game of 2024 left a lot to be desired before he left with an injury. The 2020 first-round pick completed just 17 of 34 pass attempts for 260 yards, two touchdowns and one interception in the 34-29 loss.
But more importantly, the Packers can only hope that Love avoided a significant injury and will be back on the field as soon as possible.
