The Packers took advantage of the fumbled punt with Jayden Reed’s touchdown

Emmett Prosser

The Packers receive the kick and Keisean Nixon returns the kick from the 3-yard line to the Packers 48-yard line as commotion reigns at Lambeau Field. Packers cornerback Corey Ballentine was injured in the game.

After a 1-yard run by Josh Jacobs and a false start, Love tries on 2nd-and-14, but he overthrows Jayden Reed, who had broken through. Love was then pressured on third-and-long and the throws were incomplete. The Packers are forced to punt.

However, Malik Washington fumbles Daniel Whelan’s kick and the Packers’ Robert Rochell recovers at the 9-yard line. This is a big twist at the beginning of this story.
