A pair of players making their NFL debut scored the first touchdown of the 2021 preseason for the Green Bay Packers.
Rookie running back Kylin Hill caught a screen pass from quarterback Jordan Love and darted through blockers on his way to a 22-yard touchdown in the second quarter on Saturday night at Lambeau Field.
The Packers now lead the Houston Texans by a score of 7-3.
Love and Hill sold the fake, and offensive linemen Lucas Patrick and Josh Myers delivered blocks downfield in front of Hill as he sorted his way through the mess.
The Packers took Hill in the seventh round of the 2021 draft. He is competing to be the No. 3 running back.
Love has completed six straight passes and looks increasingly comfortable throwing from the pocket. He has completed 9-of-11 passes for 98 yards and a touchdown, good for a passer rating of 134.1.
