Packers QB Jordan Love Walked Off Field After In-Game Injury Against Philadelphia Eagles
Green Bay Packers quarterback Jordan Love left Friday night’s game against the Philadelphia Eagles due to an injury sustained in the final seconds. After being tackled by two Eagles defenders, Love was seen writhing in pain on the field. He was helped off the field with just six seconds remaining in the game.
While the exact nature of the injury is still being assessed, it is believed to be a knee injury rather than an ankle issue. Packers coach Matt LaFleur remained uncertain about Love’s status after the game, and the team will likely conduct an MRI to determine the extent of any potential damage.
Love’s teammates expressed concern and hope for his recovery. Defensive tackle Kenny Clark noted Love’s importance to the team and expressed optimism for his return. After the game, Love appeared to be walking comfortably and did not exhibit any significant discomfort.
The Packers will have to wait until they return home to conduct further tests on Love’s knee due to the lengthy travel time. Despite the injury, Love made a remarkable play before leaving the game, avoiding a sack and flipping the ball left-handed to running back Josh Jacobs.
The Packers had a chance to tie the game in the final seconds after a successful kickoff return and a long pass completion. However, Love’s injury prevented him from finishing the drive.
