Quay Walker Added To Injury Report

Green Bay Packers linebacker Quay Walker (groin) has been added to the injury report ahead of the Week 9 matchup against the Los Angeles Rams. This is not good news as Walker wasn't on the injury report until Friday's practice session. He was seen on a exercise bike and did not practice on Friday. At […]

Packers Defense A Low-Ceiling Streaming Option In Week 9

The Green Bay Packers defense will look to stave off the Los Angeles Rams in Week 9. While the Packers are missing numerous starters and could be without Quay Walker (groin) and Rudy Ford (calf), they still have streaming potential due to the Rams' injury report. Los Angeles has listed quarterback Matthew Stafford (thumb) as […]

Anders Carlson Off The Fantasy Radar Against Rams

Green Bay Packers kicker Anders Carlson will take on the Los Angeles Rams in Week 9. The rookie kicker has not been a relevant fantasy option many times this year and will continue to be off the radar this week against the Rams. Even though the matchup is great for fantasy kickers, the Packers offense […]

Jayden Reed May Have Role Reduced In Week 9

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Jayden Reed will take on the Los Angeles Rams in Week 9. The rookie has looked like the most explosive wide receiver in Green Bay at times this season but could see his role reduced a bit this week against the Rams. Not only does Los Angeles allow the 10th-fewest […]

Romeo Doubs Will Look To Extend Touchdown Streak To Three Games

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Romeo Doubs will face the Los Angeles Rams in Week 9. The 23-year-old has caught a touchdown two weeks in a row but has just six receptions for 48 yards during that span. The Packers' passing attack has been abysmal, and quarterback Jordan Love is struggling to throw catchable balls […]

Christian Watson Could Have Ceiling Capped Against Los Angeles

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Christian Watson will take on the Los Angeles Rams in Week 9. The 24-year-old has been quiet the past two weeks and has struggled to get anything going with quarterback Jordan Love in 2023. Even in a plus matchup last weekend against the Minnesota Vikings secondary, Watson caught just three […]

AJ Dillon A Risky Flex In Week 9

Green Bay Packers running back AJ Dillon will take on the Los Angeles Rams in Week 9. The 25-year-old has been the lead back even with Aaron Jones (hamstring) back from his injury the past two weeks, but that may change this weekend. The veteran's back seems to be near 100% after head coach Matt […]

Aaron Jones On The RB2/RB3 Borderline Against Rams

Green Bay Packers running back Aaron Jones will take on the Los Angeles Rams in Week 9. The veteran back has been dealing with a hamstring injury all season and despite coming back in Week 7 after the teams bye week, Jones has still been a limited participant in practice. Head coach Matt LaFleur came […]

Luke Musgrave Will Play In Week 9

Green Bay Packers tight end Luke Musgrave (ankle) has been limited in practice throughout the week. Despite that, Musgrave was removed from the injury report ahead of the Week 9 matchup against the Los Angeles Rams. It looks like the rookie tight end is good to go for this favorable matchup. He has been one […]

Jordan Love Will Look To Bounce Back Against Rams

Green Bay Packers quarterback Jordan Love will take on the Los Angeles Rams in Week 9. The 25-year-old has been nothing more than a streaming option the past month after a hot start to the regular season. Most of his issues come in the accuracy department, as he is completing just 57.7% of his passes […]

Packers Ready To Cut Aaron Jones Loose?

When asked whether Green Bay Packers running back Aaron Jones (hamstring) would play in Week 9 against the Los Angeles Rams, head coach Matt LaFleur said the team is "ready to cut him loose."

However, he may need to get back to a full practice on Friday to avoid a […]

Aaron Jones Remains Limited Due To Hamstring Issue

Green Bay Packers running back Aaron Jones (hamstring) was limited in practice for the second straight day this week on Thursday. Jones is most likely going to play, but his injury, coupled with the sad state of the Packers offense this year is wrecking Jones' fantasy value. The 28-year-old has already missed three games (Weeks […]
