Packers WR Christian Watson is believed to have torn his right ACL and suffered additional damage to the leg, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport.
Packers WR Christian Watson (knee) did not practice on Wednesday. We'll see how he progresses over the next few days, but fantasy players should not be banking on Watson playing against the Bears this weekend. His absence would again leave Romeo Doubs, Jayden Reed, and Dontayvion Wicks as Green Bay's top three WRs.
Packers WR Christian Watson (knee) is "unlikely" to play vs. the Vikings today, according to NFL Network's Tom Pelissero. Watson is listed as questionable but didn't practice all week. He should be on fantasy benches. Watson's absence would leave Romeo Doubs, Jayden Reed, and Dontayvion Wicks as Green Bay's clear top three WRs.
Packers WR Christian Watson (knee) is listed as questionable for Sunday’s game vs. the Vikings. He didn’t practice all week and seems unlikely to play, but the team is at least keeping the door open. We should get an update on Watson’s status on Sunday morning. He’d be a risky fantasy start if he ends up active. If not, Romeo Doubs, Jayden Reed, and Dontayvion Wicks would be Green Bay’s clear top three WRs.
Playing his first game since Week 12, Packers WR Romeo Doubs led his team in routes (25) and TDs (2). He added 3 catches for 40 yards on an 18.5% target share vs. Seattle.
Packers WR Jayden Reed failed to catch his only target in Thursday’s loss at Detroit. He ranked third among Packers WRs in routes run. Green Bay set a season-low in offensive plays (45), while Jordan Love attempted only 20 passes. The low pass volume was nothing new, as Love has been held under 30 pass attempts in four straight. Reed also hasn’t topped 30 yards since Week 9. He’ll be tough to trust for a Week 15 matchup at Seattle.
Packers WR Romeo Doubs (concussion) was limited in Tuesday's practice. He still has multiple stages of the protocol to clear in order to play vs. the Lions on Thursday night. His absence would again leave Jayden Reed, Christian Watson, and Dontayvion Wicks as Green Bay's clear top three WRs. Check back tomorrow for another update on Doubs.
Packers QB Jordan Love completed 21 of 28 passes for 274 yards and 2 TDs in Thursday’s win over Miami. High efficiency was key, as Love finished with fewer than 30 attempts for the third straight week.
Packers WR Jayden Reed tallied 3 targets and 3 catches on Green Bay’s first drive. But that was it for his offensive involvement, as Jordan Love totaled only 23 passes (13 completions) in a 28-point win.
The Athletic's Dianna Russini hears that Packers QB Jordan Love (knee) is expected to play vs. the Lions tomorrow. That matches NFL Network's Ian Rapoport's "tracking to play" report from Friday night. We'll look for further updates on Love, but we're projecting him to play as of now. He won't be at 100% and will carry elevated risk in fantasy lineups. But there's also plenty of upside here in a potential shootout against a pass-funnel Lions defense. See where Love lands in the Week 9 QB Rankings.
Packers QB Jordan Love (groin) is listed as questionable for this weekend’s game vs. the Lions. He got in limited practices on Thursday and Friday. NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport said Friday night that Love is “tracking to play” on Sunday. It’s safe to assume he won’t be at 100%, adding risk to his Week 9 fantasy profile. But having Love under center instead of QB Malik Willis would be excellent news for Green Bay’s pass catchers.
Packers QB Jordan Love's MRI revealed a strained groin, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. Colleague Tom Pelissero adds that Love is considered "day to day" and "has a chance" to play vs. the Lions this weekend. Love will certainly push to play in that big game, although it's worth noting that the Packers have a Week 10 bye. We'll track his status throughout the week. If Love is unable to go, Green Bay will turn back to QB Malik Willis. He's played surprisingly well this season, helping the Packers to three wins. But Willis would be a significant downgrade for the team's pass catchers.
Packers WR Romeo Doubs led the team in targets Sunday for the first time since Week 1. He tallied game highs in receptions (8) and receiving yards (94) in the win over the Texans. Doubs drew a strong 30.3% target share and ran a route on a team-high 86.5% of QB Jordan Love's dropbacks.
Packers WR Dontayvion Wicks is considered “week to week” with the shoulder injury that knocked him out of the Week 6 win over the Cardinals, according to insider Jordan Schultz. "After initial concern inside the Packers’ building of a more substantial injury, there is relief that Wicks avoided anything more serious," Schultz adds.
Packers QB Jordan Love ended the game completing 22 of 32 passes for 258 yards. Love was on fire in the first half throwing 4 TDs and only 1 INT.
Packers WR Jayden Reed is questionable to return to Sunday's game vs. the Cardinals with an ankle injury. We'll update his status when we know more. Green Bay lost WR Dontayvion Wicks to a shoulder injury earlier in the game, leaving Romeo Doubs, Christian Watson, Bo Melton, and Malik Heath at WR.
Update: Reed returned later in the second quarter.
Packers WRs Christian Watson (ankle) and Romeo Doubs (suspension) are inactive for today’s game vs. the Rams. That leaves Jayden Reed and Dontayvion Wicks as Green Bay’s clear top-two WRs. It’s unclear exactly how No. 3 WR duties will be divvied between Bo Melton and Malik Heath. They’re just fliers in DFS tournaments.
The Packers suspended WR Romeo Doubs one game for conduct detrimental to the team. He'll miss Sunday's contest vs. the Rams.
Packers WRs Christian Watson (ankle) and Romeo Doubs (personal) are listed as doubtful for Sunday’s game vs. the Rams. So Green Bay is suddenly down two of its top three WRs in terms of playing time so far this season. It’s a huge opportunity for WR Dontayvion Wicks, while WR Jayden Reed and TE Tucker Kraft should also pick up extra volume. We’re expecting WRs Bo Melton and Malik Heath to split Doubs’ snaps.
Packers WR Christian Watson is expected to miss "multiple weeks" with his high-ankle sprain, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. He avoided a fracture in the ankle but might still wind up on IR, Rapoport adds. This is a pretty standard timetable for high-ankle sprains. Plan on Watson missing at least Green Bay's next four games.
