83 Passing Yards For Malik Willis In An Inefficient Preseason Start vs. Colts

83 Passing Yards For Malik Willis In An Inefficient Preseason Start vs. Colts

4 days ago

Green Bay Packers quarterback Malik Willis played the first three series for the Packers on Saturday afternoon as Green Bay edged by the Indianapolis Colts 23-19. Willis put up 83 passing yards on just 6-of-14 passing, as even if starting quarterback Jordan Love (thumb) had been healthy, Willis was likely starting this game anyway. With Love's injured thumb likely sidelining him for the preseason finale next week, Willis' snaps were probably handled a bit more cautiously as he's slated to start the season as Love's backup if needed. Love is expected to start for the Packers in Week 1 at home against the Detroit Lions, but Willis shouldn't be rostered in any fantasy football leagues unless the team rules out Love for the Packers' season opener.
