INGLEWOOD, Calif. — It wasn’t the Green Bay Packers’ first touchdown so much as the play that set up the score that was the spectacular part.

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

The play before it, however, was the one for the highlights.

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

Reed came into 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.

Tight end Tucker Kraft topped Reed’s 53-yard catch and with a 66-yard catch-and-run touchdown early in the third quarter to give the Packers a 17-13 lead. Love hit a wide-open Kraft near midfield, and Kraft made his way down the left sideline to score.

Kraft’s 66-yard touchdown was the longest by any tight end this season, topping Brock Bower’s 57-yard touchdown catch earlier on Sunday.

KRAFT WILL NOT BE DENIED.
