Packers QB Jordan Love is dealing with an injury and had to leave the Week 8 game in the second half.

The Green Bay Packers are leading the Jacksonville Jaguars 13-10 after one half of football, but they might have to secure a win without their starting quarterback. Jordan Love left the Week 8 game and Malik Willis has replaced him.

It’s unclear exactly what’s going on, but head coach Matt LaFleur told the FOX sideline reporter that Love “can’t really move” and playcalling would need to be adjusted, per Zach Kruse. Love was spotted sitting on the bench with Willis and QB coach Tom Clements, but he was not receiving medical attention.

Packers beat writer Rob Demovsky reported that Love was trying to stretch out his lower leg. Demovsky said it looked like a muscle issue, but nothing official has been reported. Love was 14 of 22 for 196 yards and an interception before Willis replaced him in the third quarter.
