Jordan Love and the Green Bay Packers were not going to leave East Rutherford without a Week 11 win. Despite Love leaving the game temporarily due to an apparent upper-body injury, the Packers found a way to come up\u00a0with a 27-20 victory at MetLife Stadium, thanks in part to the\u00a0readiness of backup quarterback Malik Willis.<\/p>\n
Love left the game in the first half after absorbing a hit on his shoulder, which left Green Bay with the decision to send Willis to the game. Willis had not seen any action in the 2025 NFL season up until that point, but he proved to the Packers that he\u2019s always ready whenever they need him to enter a game.<\/p>\n
Willis helped the Packers finish a drive with a touchdown score, as wide receiver Christian Watson reeled in a catch in the end zone off a Willis pass in the second quarter to level the score at 7-7 following the successful extra-point kick by Lucas Havrisik.<\/p>\n
Love, who returned to the Giants game later on, was impressed with the work Willis put together in the win over New York.<\/p>\n

Jordan Love said that while he was in the locker room, he was watching the Packers\u2019 offense with Malik Willis at the helm.<\/p>\n
\u201cThat was just a big-time job by Malik,\u201d he says. \u201cIt\u2019s always tough being the backup, you gotta stay ready and you never know when that opportunity is gonna come. It\u2019s tough, I\u2019ve been there. But he did a good job coming in, staying ready, leading the guys to a touchdown drive. He took a big shot at the end of that.<\/p>\n
Everybody has a lot of respect and a lot of confidence in Malik when he has to come in. Big-time job my him.\u201d<\/p>\n
All told, Willis passed for six yards on two throws with a touchdown and zero interceptions, while also rushing for 16 yards on a carry. Those numbers are not going to jump off a page, but Jordan Love and the Packers know that Willis had a huge impact on the team\u2019s sixth win in the 2025 NFL season.<\/p>\n
Chicago Bears\u00a0defensive back Nahshon Wright was playing for a higher purpose on Sunday afternoon against the Minnesota Vikings.<\/p>\n
Wright\u2019s former college coach, John Beam, was shot and killed on the Laney College campus in Oakland, Calif., on November 13.<\/p>\n
Against the Vikings, Wright pulled down his fourth interception of the 2025 campaign, when he picked off quarterback\u00a0J.J. McCarthy\u00a0in the end zone with :35 remaining in the first quarter of Sunday\u2019s 19-17 Bears victory, in Minnesota.<\/p>\n
Wright was visibly emotional, kneeling to pray with his teammates before jogging to the sideline.<\/p>\n
\u201cHe meant the world to me,\u201d Wright told reporters after the game. \u201cWhen my dad was killed, he came to my house and got me out of the bed. He was someone I could confide in, someone that I just love dearly. We talk once a week, easily.<\/p>\n
\u201cHe did a lot for me and my brother and my family. He been there. He\u2019s been there every step of the way, and it won\u2019t stop. I gained an angel.\u201d<\/p>\n
Wright had one of his finest performances of what has already been a strong season, clearly carrying Wright\u2019s memory with him into the NFC North showdown that propelled the Bears into first place in the division, following the win.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
