Micah Parsons set a career high with three sacks and Josh Jacobs scored the go-ahead touchdown with 1:50 left as the Green Bay Packers beat the Arizona Cardinals 27-23 at State Farm Stadium in Glendale on October 19, 2025.
Jacobs played through a calf injury that had kept him as a game-time decision and finished with 55 rushing yards, two touchdowns, and his third straight multi-score game. Jacoby Brissett, starting in place of the injured Kyler Murray, threw for 279 yards and two scores but lost a fumble and was sacked six times. Tight end Trey McBride caught both of Brissett’s touchdown passes and led Arizona with 10 receptions for 74 yards, but a failed fourth-and-1 quarterback sneak with 5:58 remaining handed the ball back to Green Bay and effectively decided the game.
The Packers got to Glendale after a five-hour flight delay in Wisconsin on Saturday, caused by a mechanical issue with their plane. They still came from 10 points down in the first half to earn their first road win of the season.

Havrisik’s 61-yard field goal with no time remaining in the first half set a Packers franchise record, topping Mason Crosby’s 58-yarder from 2011. Havrisik had been signed October 11 to fill in for Brandon McManus, who missed the game with a quadriceps injury.

The loss extended Arizona’s skid to five straight, all by four points or fewer, for a combined margin of 13 points. It was the third time any NFL team had done that, joining the 2017 San Francisco 49ers and the 1984 Cleveland Browns. Green Bay, meanwhile, went to 4-1-1 and finally got the road win that had been on the list all season.
