Jordan Love exits Packers-Eagles with apparent leg injury in first game since signing $220M extension

The Green Bay Packers faced a desperate situation at the end of their season opener against the Philadelphia Eagles, and then they lost starting quarterback Jordan Love.

With only a few seconds remaining in the game and trailing 34–29, Love got caught in the pocket and faced a likely game-ending sack, he scrambled and got the ball away to running back Josh Jacobs.

However, Love went down awkwardly in the process of getting tackled by Josh Sweat and Jalen Carter. His ankle bent tunder Carter rolling to wrap up the QB’s legs. Jacobs ran the ball out of bounds to give the Packers one more play, but the bigger concern was Love left on the ground, clutching his leg.

Love was able to walk off the field with help from trainers. Backup quarterback Malik Willis entered to finish the game, but was sacked on his Hail Mary pass attempt by the Eagles’ Zack Baun as the clock ran out.
