Kyler Murray’s first pass as a Viking was one he’d probably like back.
Heavily pressured on second-and-11 from Minnesota’s 34, Murray heaved a jump ball to Jauan Jennings down the right sideline. But Green Bay’s Keisean Nixon picked it off instead, giving the Packers an extra possession early.
Notably, Green Bay’s new defensive coordinator Jonathan Gannon was Murray’s head coach with the Cardinals over the last few years.
The Packers could not fully capitalize on the opportunity, however, with quarterback Jordan Love throwing it away on third-and-12 from the Minnesota 41.
Rookie Trey Smack hit the first field goal attempt of his career, sending a 59-yard attempt through the uprights with room to spare.
Green Bay leads 3-0 with 12:11 left in the first quarter.
