Love 'dinged' in Packers' 26-7 preseason loss to Texans

GREEN BAY, Wis. (AP) — Green Bay Packers quarterback Jordan Love's pro debut ended earlier than expected.

Coach Matt LaFleur said Love “kind of got dinged” while getting sacked by Jonathan Greenard late in the first half of the Packers' 26-7 preseason loss to the Houston Texans on Saturday night. Greenard came from Love's blind side and stripped the ball from him to force a fumble.

“I got my arm hit on that play and I just dinged my shoulder a little bit," Love said.

LaFleur said he had hoped Love would play three quarters. The 2020 first-round pick from Utah State instead sat out the entire second half.
