Packers Rule Out Jordan Love for Week 17 as Malik Willis Is Expected to Start vs. Ravens

Baltimore lists Lamar Jackson as doubtful, setting up a likely matchup of backup quarterbacks with playoff positioning on the line.

Overview

  • The team announced Friday that Jordan Love will not play after he did not clear the NFL concussion protocol.
  • Malik Willis is expected to start despite a right shoulder issue and recent illness, and Green Bay did not add another quarterback to the roster.
  • With Lamar Jackson doubtful because of a back contusion, Tyler Huntley is in line to start for Baltimore unless Jackson rallies in time.
  • Willis went 9-for-11 for 121 yards and a touchdown in relief last week, and this assignment would mark his sixth career start.
  • Green Bay has clinched a playoff berth but still has a path to the NFC North title, while Baltimore needs a win and a Steelers loss to keep postseason hopes alive.
