The Packers will be without reigning NFL MVP Aaron Rodgers, who tested positive for COVID-19 and is unvaccinated. He will be sidelined for ten days. Second-year quarterback Jordan Love will start for the Packers on Sunday.
The Chiefs will be pleased to know that Rodgers will have to sit out the Week 9 clash, but if the team plays as they have so far, Love could usurp the reigning AFC champions on their stomping ground.
Ahead of the mammoth clash, here’s a look at the injury report and probable starting lineups for both teams:
