Key Facts

  • The Packers have clinched a playoff spot in the NFL and will play either the Chicago Bears or Philadelphia Eagles in the first postseason game.
  • Jordan Love, the Packers' starting quarterback, suffered a concussion against the Chicago Bears several weeks ago.
  • Love cleared concussion protocol and practiced fully with the team, but he will not play in the regular season game against the Vikings.
  • The Packers plan to start backup quarterback Clayton Tune for the game against Minnesota.
  • Malik Willis and Clayton Tune both played as quarterbacks in Love's absence during the Packers' previous game against the Ravens.
  • The Week 18 game against the Vikings holds little importance for playoff standings since the Packers are already locked into the No. 7 seed.
