The Green Bay Packers’ visit to Sao Paulo, Brazil, could prove too costly.
During the fourth quarter of the game against the Philadelphia Eagles, when they were trying to overcome a 34-29 deficit, quarterback Jordan Love had to leave the game due to an injury with 6 seconds left to play.

Green Bay’s medical staff helped Jordan Love off the field as Malik Willis entered in his place.
Willis threw an incomplete pass and was later sacked to seal the Packers’ loss to the Eagles in the first NFL game ever played in Brazil.
