Jordan Love to Jayden Reed for the 53-yard catch

INGLEWOOD, Calif. – It wasn’t so much the Green Bay Packers’ first touchdown as the play that created the score that made the spectacle.

Still, running back Josh Jacobs’s first touchdown as a member of the Packers was a 2-yard run with 6:45 left in the first quarter of Sunday’s game at the Los Angeles Rams.

Jump off the D and run in! @iAM_JoshJacobs does the job 😤

However, the piece before that was the piece with the highlights.

With three Rams running pace for pace with receiver Jayden Reed, quarterback Jordan Love dropped a deep ball that Reed hauled in for a 53-yard gain to the Rams’ 2-yard line.

Reed entered the game as the leading receiver on a Packers team that was without its other two starting receivers on Sunday because of Christian Watson’s ankle injury and Romeo Doubs’ suspension.

JORDAN LOVE. JAYDEN REED.
