Green Bay at Indianapolis

August 16, 2025
img1:00 PM Eastern

Both teams come off losses in Week 1, and Jordan Love will definitely miss this game and likely the rest of the preseason due to minor left thumb surgery. However, the Packers have a capable backup in Malik Willis while Sean Clifford and rookie Taylor Elgersman battle for the third spot. They will be facing a retooled and young Indianapolis offensive line. Based on last week's performances when the Packers lost 30-10 to the Jets, all the QBs will have an incentive to improve. Willis completed four of nine passes for 39 yards. Elgersman went 3-for-4 for 24 yards, and Clifford completed two of four for 14 yards. Amar Johnson was the bright spot with 67 rushing yards on seven carries for Green Bay. Indianapolis has a competition for starting quarterback, and neither one looks promising at this point. Anthony Richardson finished last in 2024 with a 47.7 percent completion rate and a 61.6 passer rating. Daniel Jones has a new team after six mediocre years with the Giants. He went 10-for-21 for 144 yards in the Colts' 24-16 loss to the Ravens. Riley Richardson completed 12 of 24 for 92 yards. Richardson left the game early with a dislocated right pinkie. Take the points with the Packers.
