The Green Bay Packers drew the No. 7 seed in the NFL playoffs after a 9-7-1 campaign in 2025, and are set to face their divisional rival and No. 2 seeded Chicago Bears.
Quarterback Jordan Love has been Green Bay's primary signal caller this past season, despite missing to games due to injury to end the season. He has thrown for 3,381 yards, 23 touchdowns and six interceptions in 15 games, while completing 66.3 percent of his attempts.
In his absence, backup quarterback's Malik Willis and Clayton Tune took over the reigns to end the season, as Green Bay dropped its last four games of the season, three with Willis or Tune starting. Willis has played in four games and completed 30 passes for 422 yards and three touchdowns, while avoiding throwing an interception. Tune has completed seven passes for 42 yards and thrown an interception in his two appearance at quarterback, including a season finale 16-3 loss to the Minnesota Vikings where he started.
However, Love is expected to be the starter for Saturday nights matchup with Chicago, where he hopes to win his second game against the Bears this season. Green Bay and Chicago split their season matchup 1-1, with the Bears taking the most recent matchup - a 22-16 overtime loss, where Love was forced to exit early due to injury. Yet, the Packers won the first meeting 28-21 with Love as the full time starter.
Love's receiving corps have been battered for a majority of the season with tight end Tucker Kraft being placed on IR after eight games, and wide receiver Jayden Reed missing the first 10 games while on IR. Despite only playing eight games this season, Kraft is still tied for first in receiving touchdowns on the team (six) and has the third most receiving yards (489). Wide receiver Christian Watson has missed seven games due to injury, however, he is the Packers second leading receiver with 611 yard and six touchdowns.
Romeo Doubs and Matthew Golden have been the healthiest of Love's most reliable weapons this season. Doubs leads the team in targets (85) receptions (55) and receiving yards (724), while being tied with Kraft and Watson for receiving touchdowns (six).
