Green Bay, Wisconsin – November 11, 2025
In a stunning and emotional turn of events following the Green Bay Packers’ heartbreaking 10-7 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles on Monday Night Football, quarterback Jordan Love abruptly walked out of his post-game press conference after receiving devastating news about center Elgton Jenkins’ injury.
The incident unfolded just minutes into Love’s media session at Lambeau Field. The star QB was fielding questions about the team’s offensive struggles and the late-second-quarter play where Jenkins went down—when Jordan Love was sacked by Eagles DE Nolan Smith, rolling directly into Jenkins’ left leg.
Initially reported as an ankle injury that forced Jenkins to be carted off and ruled out for the game, sources confirmed during the presser that X-rays revealed a lower-leg fracture—far more severe than the “questionable” ankle sprain first announced.
A Packers staffer reportedly whispered the update to Love mid-question. Visibly shaken, the 27-year-old franchise QB paused, muttered “I can’t do this right now,” and stood up, leaving the podium without another word. Teammates sitting nearby looked stunned, while head coach Matt LaFleur later described the moment as “gut-wrenching.”
“Jordan and Elgton are like brothers. That O-line is his family out there,” LaFleur told reporters. “Hearing it’s a fracture… yeah, it hits hard. Doesn’t sound promising at all.”
Jenkins, a two-time Pro Bowler who transitioned to center this offseason, has been the anchor of Green Bay’s rebuilt line. His absence could sideline him for weeks—or longer—potentially derailing the Packers’ playoff push during a brutal upcoming schedule: Lions, Bears, Dolphins, and Vikings.
Social media erupted immediately:
- “Jordan Love walking out like that… man, this one hurts. Protect the O-line at ALL costs! 💔” – @PackersForever
- “Fracture?! We just lost our best lineman. Season on life support.” – @CheeseheadNation
- “Love’s reaction says it all. Team is crushed.” – @GBPressGazette
Backup Sean Rhyan filled in admirably at center after Jenkins’ exit, but the offense managed just 7 points in a defensive slugfest.
The Packers have yet to release an official timeline, but sources indicate surgery may be required. Stay tuned for updates—this injury ripple could change everything for Green Bay.
