Bears Take NFC North Lead in OT Win as Packers Lose Jordan Love to Concussion

Chicago moves atop the division, leaving Green Bay to navigate Jordan Love’s concussion protocol.

Overview

  • Jordan Love left in the second quarter after a helmet-to-helmet hit by Austin Booker, was flagged for roughing, and was ruled out with a concussion.
  • Backup Malik Willis kept Green Bay competitive, going 9-of-11 for 121 yards with a touchdown and 44 rushing yards as the Packers went 0-for-5 in the red zone.
  • Romeo Doubs failed to secure an onside kick late, setting up Chicago’s tying drive capped by Jahdae Walker’s fourth-and-4 touchdown with 24 seconds remaining.
  • Green Bay turned it over on downs to open overtime after a failed fourth-and-short, and Caleb Williams connected with D.J. Moore for a 46-yard game-winner.
  • Tremaine Edmunds was activated and recovered Josh Jacobs’ goal-line fumble; Chicago improved to 11–4 while injury-hit Green Bay fell to 9–5–1 with Micah Parsons on injured reserve.
