Jordan Love Returns From Shoulder Scare to Lead Packers Over Giants 27-20

Green Bay now awaits tests on Josh Jacobs' knee.

Overview

  • Love exited in the first quarter with a left shoulder injury after a hit by Giants linebacker Demetrius Flannigan-Fowles and was listed as questionable before returning early in the second.
  • Backup Malik Willis replaced Love and capped the drive with a touchdown pass to Christian Watson to get Green Bay on the board.
  • Love finished with two touchdown passes, including a 17-yard strike to Watson with 4:02 remaining, and converted a two-point pass to Emanuel Wilson.
  • Starting running back Josh Jacobs was ruled out at halftime with a knee injury after seven carries for 40 yards, with Wilson stepping in and scoring on an 11-yard run.
  • The victory snapped Green Bay’s two-game skid, while New York fell to 2-9 in Mike Kafka’s debut as interim head coach with Jameis Winston making his first Giants start.
