### Packers' QB Jordan Love Suffers Groin Injury Against Jaguars
In a closely contested encounter at EverBank Stadium, Green Bay Packers quarterback Jordan Love faced adversity as he seemingly re-injured his left knee early in the game against the Jacksonville Jaguars. Love completed an awkward pass with just under 12 minutes remaining in the first quarter, raising concerns about his knee's condition—a knee he had recently rehabilitated from a medial collateral ligament sprain that sidelined him for two games earlier in the season.
Despite apparent discomfort, Love pushed through in the first half. He was seen limping after certain plays, yet managed to complete 12 of 20 passes, amassing 184 yards with one interception in the red zone. His gritty performance helped the Packers maintain a slender 13-10 lead by halftime.
However, Love's persistence came with a price. After taking a hit while throwing a pass, he was forced to leave the field in the second half. The Packers subsequently announced that Love was dealing with a groin injury, listing him as questionable to return.
Malik Willis, who stepped in for Love, made an immediate impact. Following a Jaguars touchdown that gave them their first lead, Willis led the Packers on an impressive eight-play, 80-yard scoring drive. A standout moment from this drive was Josh Jacobs' 38-yard touchdown run, which put the Packers back in front with a 20-17 lead.
The game underscored the resilience of both Love and Willis, as the Packers aimed to build on their strengths while managing the adversities that injuries bring.
