Romeo Doubs Crashes Back To Earth With One-Catch Performance
Romeo Doubs caught one of four targets for a gain of four yards during the team's 17-13 loss to the Las Vegas Raiders on Monday night. The second-year receiver had a solid open to the season, seeing 25 total targets combined in Weeks 3 and 4. However, the Packers offense crumbled, with quarterback Jordan Love throwing three interceptions and completing just over 50% of his passes. The hope is that this game was an outlier for the 23-year-old receiver. The upcoming schedule after the team's Week 6 bye is favorable, with Denver and Minnesota's poor pass defenses on deck. Hold onto Doubs through the bye and consider him a solid flex in Week 7.

Romeo Doubs Suffers Concussion In Wild-Card Loss
Romeo Doubs (concussion) officially suffered a concussion in the third quarter of the team's 22-10 loss to the hosting Philadelphia Eagles in the wild-card round on Sunday and never returned. Doubs fell hard on his head in the end zone after a potential touchdown pass was broken up by two defenders. It was Doubs' second concussion of the season, but the good news is he'll have all offseason to recover. In addition to Doubs, the Packers lost Christian Watson (knee) to a torn ACL in Week 18 and Jayden Reed to a dislocated shoulder on Sunday. The 24-year-old finished Sunday's game with only two catches for 13 yards on two targets. The third-year wideout finished the regular season fourth on the team with 601 receiving yards and four TDs on 72 receptions in 13 games played. Doubs will remain a big part of the offense in 2025, albeit in a crowded Green Bay receiver room.

Romeo Doubs Tallies Two Receptions, Leaves Game In Second Half
Romeo Doubs (concussion) left the game and did not return during the third quarter of the Packers' 22-10 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles. Doubs hit his head on the ground when trying to make a catch in the end zone on a deep shot from quarterback Jordan Love. Doubs was ruled questionable to return, but he never re-entered Sunday's contest. Prior to his departure, Doubs caught both of his targets for 13 yards on the afternoon. Heading into the final season of his rookie contract, Doubs tallied 46 receptions, 601 receiving yards, and four touchdowns this season. He should remain an integral part of the Packers' passing game in 2025.

Jayden Reed, Romeo Doubs Questionable To Return
Jayden Reed (shoulder) and Romeo Doubs (concussion) are both questionable to return to Sunday's wild-card game. Both sustained injuries during the second half. Doubs suffered a concussion earlier this season and had to miss two games. With Christian Watson (knee) already out for the season after tearing his ACL in the Week 18 regular-season finale, this leaves receivers Dontayvion Wicks and Bo Melton and tight end Tucker Kraft as quarterback Jordan Love's lone pass-catchers for the rest of this game. Reed was leading the team in receiving yards (46) before leaving, while Doubs had tallied 23 yards.

Romeo Doubs A WR2 Sleeper On Wild-Card Weekend
Romeo Doubs (illness) practiced in full all week and was removed from Friday's final injury report. After sitting out for rest purposes in the Week 18 loss to the division-rival Chicago Bears in the regular-season finale, Doubs will be ready to play on Sunday against the Philadelphia Eagles on the road on wild-card weekend. And with Christian Watson (knee) now done for the year with a torn ACL, the 24-year-old Doubs will have a higher fantasy ceiling, albeit against an Eagles secondary that won't be an easy matchup. And while Doubs should have slightly more opportunities, he will still be battling for targets with Jayden Reed and Dontayvion Wicks. During the regular season, Doubs was outside the top-50 wideouts in half-PPR points per game with a 46-601-4 line in 13 games. Consider him a boom/bust WR2 sleeper in DFS and playoff formats this weekend.
