Willis Replaces Love, Throws TD, but Commits Costly OT Fumble; Week 17 Start Likely

Malik Willis took over for an injured Jordan Love (concussion) in the second quarter, completing 9 of 11 passes for 121 yards, one touchdown (a 33-yard pass to Romeo Doubs), and no interceptions, adding 10 rushes for 44 yards. He led a scoring drive and a field goal drive, but a critical fumble on a fourth-down snap in overtime ended the Packers' chances. Despite the sour finish, Willis is a strong candidate to start Week 17 against the Ravens if Love remains in concussion protocol.
