NFL Network's Ian Rapoport reports Christian Watson's injury is not believed to be serious.Watson appeared to have suffered a shoulder injury but was later listed with a chest injury. The Packers' top deep threat was taken to the hospital for further evaluation, but was able to fly home with the team after the game. Whether or not he's able to play in Week 16 against the may not be known until later in the week, but it sounds like this will be a short-term absence for Watson at the worst. With the Packers playing on Saturday, we should have our first injury report on Tuesday, which will give us a better sense of where Watson's availability could stand for next week. If he's unable to go, Romeo Doubs and Matthew Golden would be the favorites to see expanded roles.
Romeo Doubs caught 2-of-3 targets for 36 yards in the Packers' Week 15 loss to the Broncos.Doubs only saw three targets in this one, but the fourth-year receiver could see a bigger workload in Week 16 if Christian Watson (chest) is unable to go. Earlier this season, when Watson was recovering from a knee injury, Doubs saw eight or more targets in three games and finished as a top-36 PPR receiver in four of those outings. He's a highly volatile player, but may find himself on the radar as a FLEX play if Watson can't go against the Jaguars.
Packers Unlikely To Retain WR Romeo Doubs; OLB Rashan Gary A Cut Candidate?In early October, we heard the Packers were interested in extending contract-year wideout Romeo Doubs. Now, multiple outlets are reporting that Doubs is unlikely to be back with Green Bay in 2026. Earlier this week, ESPN s Jeremy Fowler said the Packers are expected to let Doubs walk, and just a day later, Matt Schneidman of […]
Romeo Doubs failed to catch either of his targets in the Packers' Week 14 win over the Bears.With Christian Watson emerging as the Packers' No. 1 receiver and Jayde Reed back in the mix, Doubs simply couldn't earn targets in a suddenly-crowded receiver room. Things have been trending in this direction for a while. Doubs most recently topped 23 yards in Week 11 and his last game with more than four catches came in Week 8. He can safely be dropped in all 12-team fantasy formats heading into Week 15.
Packers activated Jayden Reed (foot/shoulder) off injured reserve.Reed was activated, but that doesn't mean the wideout will play in Week 14 against the Bears. The Packers are listening the third-year wideout as questionable for that contest, and there's just as good of chance that he'll return to action in Week 15 as this Sunday. Reed last played in Week 2. If he can actually suit up, he'll knock Dontayvion Wicks out of the top 70, and perhaps render Romeo Doubs and even Christian Watson a bit more volatile.
