Jordan Love Leaves Game In Second Quarter, Good To Go For Playoffs
1 day agoGreen Bay Packers quarterback Jordan Love (elbow) left Week 18's game against the Chicago Bears in the second quarter and did not return in their 24-22 loss. Love exited Sunday's game late in the first half after an injury to his elbow. He was deemed questionable to return. Head coach Matt LaFleur did say after the game that Love was held out as a precaution and will be good to go against the Eagles in the wild-card round of the playoffs next week. Prior to his early exit, Love was seven of 12 passing for 69 yards and ceded the way to backup quarterback Malik Willis, who finished the rest of the game. Love was seen throwing on the sideline during the Bears' second-to-last drive, sparking optimism that he could return, but Willis played the rest of the game. The Packers' playoff path is set with the team heading to Philadelphia to face the Eagles next week. For playoff contests, Love will be a low-ceiling option.
