Malik Willis came off the bench and delivered a 51-yard completion to Jayden Reed to help the Green Bay Packers beat the Jacksonville Jaguars on the final play.
GREEN BAY, Wis. – With Jordan Love injured, Malik Willis came off the bench to help the Green Bay Packers beat the Jacksonville Jaguars 30-27 on Sunday in Jacksonville.
Jacksonville didn’t have enough timeouts to get the ball back, so Green Bay drained the clock and McManus booted a 24-yard field goal to beat his former team.Will Love be healthy enough to face the best team in the NFC? Of will Willis have to come to the rescue? With Love on the move, he overthrew Jacobs and pulled up near the Jaguars’ sideline. After missing two games with an injured left knee early in the season, Love was injured again. Every bit of his movement the rest of the game, whether it was making a handoff or trying to escape pressure, was labored.
The Jaguars answered with a field goal, then took possession with 3:50 to go. Trevor Lawrence’s 14-yard touchdown pass to Evan Engram tied the score, setting the stage for the late heroics.On the opening series, Love aggravated his injured left knee on a third-down incompletion. The injury impacted the offense until he exited in the third quarter.
Moments later, the Packers were in position when safety Xavier McKinney grabbed his sixth interceptions of the season. Romeo Doubs drew a pass-interference penalty on third-and-7, a 21-yard penalty that set up Josh Jacobs’ easy 3-yard touchdown run. Josh Myers and Sean Rhyan opened a huge hole on the play.
