Matt Schneidman of The Athletic believes free agent WR Marquez Valdes-Scantling will “probably” be “too expensive” for Green Bay to re-sign. Schneidman calls MVS’s production “too sporadic” for the anticipated cost. In 2021, the 27-year-old popped for games with 22 and 21 PPR points. But he remained unreliable on a weekly basis and missed time with back and hamstring injuries. Spotrac expects Valdes-Scantling’s free agent deal to be roughly $24 million over 3 years.

Packers WR Marquez Valdes-Scantling (back) is doubtful for this weekend’s game against San Francisco. MVS was a limited participant in Tuesday’s practice but missed the next 2 sessions. Current projections have Davante Adams for nearly 11 targets; Allen Lazard #2 on the team with nearly 6.

Packers WR Marquez Valdes-Scantling is out for the 2nd half of Sunday's game vs. the Lions with a back injury.

He'll get a 1st-round bye to heal up before the Divisional Round.

Packers WR Marquez Valdes-Scantling has been activated from the COVID list, putting him on track to return for Sunday night's game vs. the Vikings. MVS totaled 31 targets over his last 4 games before missing last week. That stretch included a 4-123-1 line on 10 targets against Minnesota.

Packers WR Randall Cobb suffered a groin injury in the 1st half of Sunday's game vs. the Rams and won't return. He was having a big one before exiting, catching 4 balls for 95 yards and a score. Cobb's absence leaves Marquez Valdes-Scantling and Allen Lazard as Green Bay's 2nd and 3rd WRs.

Packers WR Allen Lazard (shoulder) is inactive for today’s game vs. the Vikings. That leaves Marquez Valdes-Scantling and Randall Cobb as Green Bay’s clear #2 and #3 WRs.

Packers WR Allen Lazard (shoulder) did not practice all week and is listed as doubtful for Sunday's game vs. the Vikings. His absence should make WRs Marquez Valdes-Scantling and Randall Cobb close to full-time players. Both guys are still just fantasy fliers, though.

Packers WR Marquez Valdes-Scantling (hamstring) has been activated from IR, putting him on track to play vs. the Chiefs on Sunday. He's not a bankable fantasy option with QB Jordan Love under center but could emerge as an asset when QB Aaron Rodgers returns.

The Packers have designated WR Marquez Valdes-Scantling to return from IR. He seemed on track to return from his hamstring injury in time to play Arizona last Thursday night but ultimately didn't. We'd guess that MVS will be back on the active roster for this Sunday's upside matchup with Kansas City, but we'll watch to make sure he's actually activated. Designating him to return merely opens the window for Valdes-Scantling to return to practice. The team could still wait up to 3 weeks before moving him to the active roster.

Packers WRs Davante Adams and Allen Lazard were not activated from the COVID list ahead of the 4 pm ET deadline and are out for tonight's game vs. the Cardinals. WR Marquez Valdes-Scantling (hamstring) was not activated from IR and is also out. Green Bay did activate WR Malik Taylor from the COVID list and elevated WR Juwann Winfree from the practice squad. So the Packers' WRs tonight are Randall Cobb, Equaniemous St. Brown, Amari Rodgers, Taylor and Winfree.

ESPN's Jeremy Fowler hears that it "doesn’t look good" for Packers WR Marquez Valdes-Scantling to return for tonight's game vs. the Cardinals. Green Bay could certainly use MVS, but it sounds like that hamstring still isn't ready. The team needs to decide whether to activate Valdes-Scantling by 4 pm ET today, so we'll know his status by then.

Insider Doug Kyed reports that Packers WR Marquez Valdes-Scantling (hamstring) is tentatively expected back for Thursday night's game vs. the Cardinals. He's been out since hurting his hamstring late in Week 3. Valdes-Scantling's return would be excellent timing for a Green Bay squad down WRs Davante Adams and Allen Lazard. MVS could step right back into a significant role, although he also carries some risk in his 1st game off a 4-week absence.
