The Packers believe WR Christian Watson suffered a high-ankle sprain in the Week 4 loss to the Vikings, according to insider Jordan Schultz. Watson is scheduled for a Monday MRI to confirm that diagnosis. A high-ankle sprain would very likely cost Watson multiple games.
Packers QB Jordan Love went off for 389 yards, 4 TDs, and 3 INTs in Sunday's loss to the Vikings. His yardage, TDs, and attempts (54) all set career highs.
Packers WR Christian Watson is questionable to return to Sunday's game vs. the Vikings. He was carted back to the locker room. We'll update Watson's status when we know more. His absence will mean more snaps for WR Dontayvion Wicks.
Update: Watson has been ruled out.
Packers QB Jordan Love (knee) is active for today’s game vs. the Vikings. He’s a little over three weeks removed from spraining his MCL and likely won’t have his usual mobility today. That could be an issue against a blitz-heavy Minnesota defense. Love sits well into QB2 territory in the Week 4 Rankings. But his return is excellent news for Green Bay's WRs and TEs.
Packers QB Jordan Love (knee) is inactive for today’s game vs. the Titans. We’re tentatively expecting him back for next weekend’s divisional game vs. the Vikings but will continue to keep a close eye on his progress. QB Malik Willis gets another start today. The Packers threw just 14 passes vs. 53 runs with Willis at the helm last week. Expect another run-heavy attack today (although probably not that extreme).
ESPN's Adam Schefter and NFL Network's Ian Rapoport hear that Packers QB Jordan Love (knee) is not expected to play vs. the Titans today. Love got in three limited practices this week, and Rapoport confirms that he has a good chance to return in Week 4. We've been projecting Willis to start against Tennessee all week, so there are no changes to our Week 3 Rankings. Expect another run-heavy game plan from Green Bay.
Packers QB Jordan Love (knee) is listed as questionable for this weekend’s game vs. the Titans. He put in three limited practices this weekend. HC Matt LaFleur hinted Friday that Love still hasn’t been medically cleared to play. We’re still tentatively expecting QB Malik Willis to get another start on Sunday, but we’ll keep you updated on Love’s status.
Packers QB Jordan Love (knee) "has a chance" to play vs. the Titans this weekend, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter. “I wouldn’t be surprised if he plays this week,” a Packers source told Schefter. “It’s definitely day-by-day like he said, and 50-50 at best right now.” Love was officially limited in Wednesday's practice.
Packers QB Jordan Love said Wednesday that he's "hopeful" to play vs. the Titans this weekend, according to The Athletic's Matt Schneidman. Love added that he's waiting to see how his injured knee progresses throughout the week.
Packers WR Dontayvion Wicks breaks out a bit with QB Malik Willis throwing the ball scoring a first half TD. His final stat line was three receptions on four targets for 26 yards and that lone TD.. It is promising that he had a connection with Willis since QB Jordan Love is likely to miss at least two more weeks.
Packers QB Jordan Love (knee) is targeting a Week 5 return, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. "Though there is a chance he beats that goal," Rapoport adds.
NFL Network's Tom Pelissero reports that Packers QB Jordan Love's "initial timetable" for return is 3-6 weeks. "And there's some early optimism he could return sooner than later, pending a second opinion," Pelissero adds. Green Bay's bye isn't until Week 10, so that shouldn't factor into Love's return date. It sounds like we should plan on him missing at least the next three games vs. Indianapolis, at Tennessee, and vs. Minnesota. It's worth noting that the Packers medical staff has historically been cautious in bringing players back from injury.
Packers QB Jordan Love has been diagnosed with a sprained MCL, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. There's no damage to Love's ACL. It's relatively good news, but Rapoport confirms that Love "should miss some time." We'll look for a timetable for his return.
Packers WR Romeo Doubs’ frame and starting role appears to have him set to be the main receiver target in the red zone. Last season, Doubs and WR Jayden Reed tied with 17 red-zone targets each. Speculation has Doubs’ red zone targets increasing this year.
Packers WRs Jayden Reed (chest) and Dontayvion Wicks (chest) are active for today’s game vs. the Bears. WR Christian Watson (hamstring) is inactive. Reed, Wicks, and Romeo Doubs should operate as Green Bay’s top three WRs vs. a Chicago defense missing top CB Jaylon Johnson.
Packers WRs Jayden Reed (chest), Christian Watson (hamstring), and Dontayvion Wicks (chest) are all listed as questionable for Sunday’s game vs. the Bears. Wicks put in full practices on Thursday and Friday, so he should play. Reed was limited all week, but we’re tentatively expecting him to play. Watson got in limited practices on Wednesday and Thursday before taking a planned day off on Friday. “We felt he had two good days of practice and wanted to give him today and we’ll see where he’s at on Sunday,” HC Matt LaFleur said of Watson on Friday. Watson would be a risky fantasy play if he ends up active for the Bears game.
Packers WRs Christian Watson (hamstring) and Dontayvion Wicks (chest, ankle) are inactive for tonight’s game vs. the Vikings. Jayden Reed is back after missing last week and should lead this WR corps tonight. Romeo Doubs joins Reed as Green Bay’s top two WRs, with Malik Heath, Bo Melton, and Samori Toure behind them.
Packers WR Jayden Reed (toe, chest) put in three limited practices this week and is not listed on the final injury report for Sunday night’s game vs. the Vikings. WR Christian Watson (hamstring) is doubtful, while Dontayvion Wicks (chest, ankle) is questionable but didn’t practice all week. It’ll likely be Reed and Romeo Doubs as Green Bay’s clear top two WRs in Minnesota.
Packers WR Jayden Reed (toe, chest) got in a limited practice on Wednesday. It's an upgrade over last week, when he missed all three practices. We're tentatively expecting Reed back for Sunday night's game vs. the Vikings, but we'll keep you updated on his status. WRs Christian Watson (hamstring) and Dontayvion Wicks (chest, ankle) did not practice on Wednesday.
Packers WR Dontayvion Wicks is questionable to return to Sunday's game vs. the Panthers with a chest injury. He caught both of his targets for 29 yards and a TD before exiting. Green Bay is already without WRs Christian Watson and Jayden Reed today, leaving Romeo Doubs, Bo Melton, and Malik Heath as the top three.
