Packers’ Love Out with Concussion; Playoff Implications High in Week 17

GREEN BAY, WI – The Green Bay Packers will be without starting quarterback Jordan Love for their crucial Week 17 matchup against the Baltimore Ravens on Saturday night. NFL Network Insider Tom Pelissero reported Friday that Love is still in concussion protocol after sustaining the injury in Week 16 against the Chicago Bears. The team has since confirmed the news.

Malik Willis is expected to take the reins at quarterback for the Packers, who clinched a playoff berth on Thursday thanks to Detroit’s loss to Minnesota. However, a loss to Baltimore would hand the NFC North title to the Chicago Bears.
