This afternoon, the Green Bay Packers will continue on with their preseason as they take on the Indianapolis Colts. The Packers will be without starting quarterback Jordan Love, who had minor surgery on the thumb of his non-throwing hand earlier in the week. That leaves the team to start backup Malik Willis at quarterback this Saturday.
It will be Willis’ second start against the Colts as a Packer, although this one will not count in the standings. Willis started last year’s week two matchup at Lambeau Field, helping lead the Packers to a 16-10 victory as the team heavily relied on Josh Jacobs and its running game.
Love will skip both this game and next week’s preseason finale, but he probably would not have played in this game even without the injury. Head coach Matt LaFleur revealed his plans this week that most of the Packers’ key starters will sit this game out, especially after they got plenty of reps during the teams’ joint practice on Thursday. That means that it should be almost exclusively second- and third-stringers taking the field throughout the afternoon for the green and gold.
Unlike last week’s Packers-Jets game, today’s game will not be broadcast live on NFL Network. That means that fans outside of the Packers’ and Colts’ local markets will need to have an NFL+ subscription in order to watch the game live. Scroll down for details on how and when to tune in for today’s game!
