- Green Bay Packers 29-34 Philadelphia Eagles
- NFL makes South American debut
Saquon Barkley scored three touchdowns in his debut for Philadelphia, leading the Eagles past the Green Bay Packers 34-29 on Friday night in the first NFL game in South America.
Packers quarterback Jordan Love limped off the field injured in the final seconds. After driving the Packers beyond midfield, Love was pressured by Jalen Carter and Josh Sweat. Love threw a backward pass to Josh Jacobs and landed awkwardly. He stayed down for several seconds before limping to the sideline. Love had signed a four-year, $220m extension this summer after leading the NFL’s youngest team to the playoffs last season, his first as a starter. Green Bay’s backup Malik Willis was sacked by Zack Baun on the final play of the game, preventing him from launching a Hail Mary from the Philadelphia 47. Packers coach Matt LaFleur had no update on Love’s injury after the game.
