The Green Bay Packers are in Cleveland to play the Browns at Huntington Bank Stadium in Week 3. These two teams have had completely different starts to the 2025 season — the Packers have two of the biggest wins in football, while the Browns have lost back-to-back games to AFC North rivals.
The showdown is scheduled for a noon CT kickoff from Cleveland. FOX will broadcast the game live, with Kevin Kugler and Daryl Johnston on the call and Allison Williams on the sidelines.
Follow along with Packers Wire for live updates and highlights from Week 3:
Final score: Browns 13, Packers 10
Blocked field goal, Packers lose
The Browns blocked a field goal from Brandon McManus, promptly got into field goal position and won the game as time expired on a 55-yard field goal. The Packers gave up a 10-0 lead in the fourth quarter and are now 2-1, with two impressive wins and one of the worst losses of the early 2025 season.
Love interception helps Browns tie it up late
Jordan Love was intercepted on third down, and Grant Delpit’s interception return set up a short touchdown run by Quinshon Judkins. It’s tied up, 10-10. Can Love find an answer with 3:01 to go?
Browns cut lead to 7
A couple of explosive runs from Quinshon Judkins and two defensive penalties got the Browns to the 1-yard line, but Kevin Stefanski had to settle for a field goal after a clipping penalty got the Packers off the goal line. A short field goal cut the Packers lead to 10-3.
End of 3: Packers up 10
For the third straight game to start the 2025 season, the Packers have a double-digit lead in the second half. But the fourth quarter will start with a Packers punt after Jordan Love took a sack and lost 11 yards on 3rd-and-1 on the final play of the third quarter. Love has been sacked five times in three quarters.
Packers take 10-0 lead on FitzPatrick TD
A 14-play, 71-yard drive ended with Jordan Love finding John FitzPatrick for a touchdown on third down. The Packers, who are down two offensive linemen and didn’t have Rasheed Walker for a few plays, converted four third downs and dug out of a 2nd-and-18 hole with a 31-yarder to Josh Jacobs.
Another Gary sack ends a drive
Rashan Gary’s second sack of the afternoon ended the Browns’ first drive of the second half.
Packers G Aaron Banks hurt too
Zach Tom is out with a reinjured oblique injury, and now Aaron Banks is questionable to return with a groin injury. Without Tom and Banks, the Packers are going with Jordan Morgan at left guard and rookie Anthony Belton at right tackle.
McKinney ends half with INT
A defensive struggle in the first half fittingly ends with an interception from Xavier McKinney. The Browns had 4th-and-8 from the Green Bay 43, and McKinney picked off Flacco’s deep heave. It’s 3-0 Packers at the half.
Offense struggling
While the Packers offense has sustained at times, everything has been difficult, and the offensive line is struggling to keep Jordan Love clean. After driving inside Browns territory, a couple of penalties set up a third-down sack from Myles Garrett, leading to a punt as halftime nears.
Third down sack from Rashan Gary
The Browns were driving near midfield, but Rashan Gary came unblocked and sacked Joe Flacco on the third down to force a punt.
Packers score first
The Packers failed to convert 3rd-and-9 and settled for a field goal after a 13-play drive, and Brandon McManus connected from 39 yards out to get on the board. It’s 3-0 Packers to start the second quarter.
End of 1: Packers 0, Browns 0
It’s been a grind. The Packers have forced two punts and are in scoring range to end the first quarter, but moving the football has been tough work for both teams. Matt LaFleur’s offense faces a big third down to start the second quarter.
Packers lose Zach Tom on first snap
Packers right tackle Zach Tom made his return from an oblique injury, but it lasted all of one snap. He is listed as questionable to return with a reinjury of the oblique issue.
Packers force punt on opening drive
The Browns took the ball to open the game and drove to midfield, but a failed run play on third-and-long led to a punt. Cleveland doesn’t have right tackle Jack Conklin and then lost left tackle Dawand Jones to an injury on the first drive, so Joe Flacco will have backup tackles the rest of the way.
Tucker Kraft, Zach Tom both active
Good news on the inactive list for the Packers: tight end Tucker Kraft and right tackle Zach Tom are both active, while Browns right tackle Jack Conklin is inactive. The Packers’ three inactives are all healthy scratches: cornerback Kamal Hadden, offensive lineman Donovan Jennings and defensive lineman Warren Brinson.
