Doubs isn't exciting, but the one edge he's had on other wide receivers is that he stays on the field more than they do. His 77% snap share last year led all Packers WRs, as did his 5.5 targets per game. Still, those numbers remain underwhelming. If you draft Doubs it should be as a bench receiver in the double-digit rounds that can perhaps provide some floor during bye weeks. We are more excited about drafting rookie Matthew Golden and teammate Jayden Reed earlier in the draft. He likely needs a shift toward passing for the Packers offense and an injury to Golden or Reed for him to be a reliable flex.
Packers' Romeo Doubs: Touchdown grab in preseason win
Rotowire
Doubs recorded one catch on one target for one yard and a touchdown in Saturday's 20-7 preseason win over the Seahawks.
Doubs played for two offensive possessions along with other starters such as Matthew Golden, Tucker Kraft and Josh Jacobs. He caught his touchdown on a slant route on a pass from Malik Willis, who started the game for Green Bay. Most importantly, Doubs looks ready for the Packers' Week 1 matchup against the Lions after working through a back injury for much of the last two weeks.

Packers' Romeo Doubs: Participating in team drills
Rotowire
Doubs (back) is taking part in team drills at Monday's practice, Ryan Wood of USA Today reports.
Doubs appears fully recovered from the back injury he picked up due to a collision at practice last Tuesday, an encouraging development for Green Bay as wide receivers Jayden Reed (foot) and Dontayvion Wicks (calf) remain sidelined, and with Christian Watson (ACL) on the active/PUP list and likely out until at least Week 5. Quarterback Jordan Love (thumb) also returned to practice Monday and is participating in 7-on-7 drills, so the Packers' starting offense is getting healthier with roughly three weeks to go until the regular-season opener against Detroit on Sunday, Sept. 7. With the plethora of injuries Green Bay is still managing, though, it remains to be seen whether head coach Matt LaFleur will opt to play starters during Saturday's preseason finale against Seattle.

Packers' Romeo Doubs: Practicing Monday
Rotowire
Doubs (back) has retaken the practice field Monday, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.
Doubs missed nearly a week of practice after suffering an apparent back injury due to a collision last Tuesday, but he's back on the field in at least a limited capacity Monday. Quarterback Jordan Love (thumb) also returned to practice, albeit with his left hand still in a soft cast and as a limited participant. It remains to be seen whether Doubs will have any restrictions at practice Monday, but in any case, he remains fully on track for Week 1 and appears to be trending in the right direction for Saturday's preseason finale against the Seahawks, if coach Matt LaFleur opts to play his starters.

Packers' Romeo Doubs: Comes up empty on two targets
Rotowire
Doubs failed to bring in either of his two targets during the Packers' 30-10 preseason loss to the Jets on Saturday night.
Doubs was the intended receiver on Jordan Love's first two pass attempts, which came on Green Bay's first and third plays from scrimmage. The fourth-year pro saw a slight downturn in 2024 while missing four regular-season games due to injury, but he could be key to helping the Packers fill the void created by Christian Watson's (PUP-knee) projected early-season absence.

Packers' Romeo Doubs: Concussion confirmed
Rotowire
Doubs was diagnosed with a concussion after he left Sunday's 22-10 wild-card loss to the Eagles, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.
The Packers concluded the season without their top three receivers, as Christian Watson (knee) missed Sunday's game after tearing his ACL in Week 18 before Doubs and Jayden Reed (shoulder) both picked up injuries in the loss. Doubs was sent in for a concussion check after he fell hard to the turf while attempting to reel in a potential touchdown with 6:55 remaining in the third quarter, finishing the contest with two catches for 13 yards on two targets. The concussion was the second of the season for Doubs, who previously sustained a head injury Week 12 against the 49ers and missed the Packers' next two games as a result. The third-year wideout caught 46 of 72 targets for 601 yards and four touchdowns over 13 regular-season appearances.

Packers' Romeo Doubs: Back at practice Wednesday
Rotowire
Doubs (illness) was present at Wednesday's practice, Ryan Wood of USA Today reports.
Doubs was tacked on to the Packers' Week 18 injury this past Saturday as questionable due to an illness and eventually was sidelined for Sunday's loss to the Bears. Head coach Matt LaFleur told Matt Schneidman of The Athletic afterward that Doubs was "in no shape" to play in the regular-season finale due to a "bug," but with the benefit of three days to rest and recover, the wide receiver appears to be mostly past the ailment. Wednesday's report will unveil how much work Doubs was able to handle.

Packers' Romeo Doubs: Sidelined due to illness
Rotowire
Doubs (illness) is listed as inactive Sunday against the Bears, Mike Spofford of the Packers' official site reports.
Doubs was added to the Packers' Week 18 injury report Saturday due to an illness, which left him questionable for Sunday's game. With his lack of availability confirmed this weekend, Green Bay will turn to Jayden Reed, Christian Watson (knee) and Dontayvion Wicks as its primary wide receivers, while Bo Melton and Malik Heath also will be on hand for snaps and targets. Doubs will turn his focus to getting healthy for the wild-card round next weekend.

Packers' Romeo Doubs: Comes down with illness
Rotowire
The Packers added Doubs to their injury report Saturday, listing him as questionable for Sunday's game versus the Bears due to an illness, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.
Green Bay already may be without its top vertical threat in Christian Watson (knee) in Week 18, and now the status of perhaps QB Jordan Love's most-trusted option in Doubs is up in the air. With Watson sidelined last Sunday at Minnesota, Doubs was targeted 11 times and turned them into seven catches for 58 yards. Doubs' status for Sunday's matchup will be confirmed, one way or another, about 90 minutes before a 1:00 p.m. ET kickoff.

Packers' Romeo Doubs: Week 16 Adds (WR Preview)
Rotowire
I don't have a waiver wire receiver in my top 40 at the position this week. So unless you suffered an injury or have been starting Elijah Moore, I would be hesitant to sit your Week 15 starter for a waiver wire addition. If you have to, Romeo Doubs is my favorite option. The Packers' receiving corps is frustrating as ever, but Doubs had two touchdowns in his Week 15 return and has three games this season with at least 17 PPR Fantasy points.

Packers' Romeo Doubs: Clears concussion protocol
Rotowire
Doubs has cleared concussion protocol and will play in Sunday's game at Seattle, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.
A full practice participant throughout the week, Doubs now has received clearance from an independent neurologist to come back from his two-game absence. His return likely means fewer snaps and routes for Christian Watson and/or Dontayvion Wicks, with the latter especially vulnerable to sliding back to a reserve role.

Packers' Romeo Doubs: Another full practice, still in protocol
Rotowire
Doubs (concussion) practiced in full Thursday, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.
Despite logging a second straight uncapped session, Doubs remains in the protocol for head injuries, as coach Matt LaFleur told Matt Schneidman of The Athletic earlier Thursday. Doubs likely only needs to gain clearance from an independent neurologist in order to gain clearance to play again, but it's unclear yet if he'll do so and put an end to a two-game absence Sunday at Seattle.

Packers' Romeo Doubs: Practices fully, but still in protocol
Rotowire
Head coach Matt LaFleur said Doubs practiced fully Wednesday, but the wide receiver remains in the concussion protocol, Wes Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site reports.
Doubs has made slow but steady progress since suffering a head injury Week 12 against the 49ers, failing to practice at all during Week 13 prep before being limited in practice last week in advance of another absence Week 14 at Detroit. Considering he was listed as a full participant Wednesday, he likely is in the final phase of the concussion protocol, which requires an evaluation from an independent neurologist in order to be able to suit up again. Doubs should receive clearance in the coming days ahead of Sunday's visit to Seattle.

Packers' Romeo Doubs: Won't return Thursday
Rotowire
Doubs (concussion) has been ruled out for Thursday's game in Detroit, Wes Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site reports.
Doubs wasn't able to log anything more than limited practice participation during Week 14 prep, indicating he has yet to reach the phase in which he would be evaluated by an independent neurologist before exiting concussion protocol. He'll thus miss his second game in a row following the concussion that he sustained during a Week 12 win against the 49ers. Dontayvion Wicks will be the primary option to step into three-receiver sets alongside Jayden Reed and Christian Watson on Thursday, while Bo Melton and Malik Heath will be on hand as depth.

Packers' Romeo Doubs: Remains limited in practice
Rotowire
Doubs (concussion) was a limited participant in Tuesday's practice.
After sitting out the Packers' Thanksgiving Day win over the Dolphins, Doubs has kicked off Week 14 prep with a pair of limited practices. According to Matt Schneidman of The Athletic, head coach Matt LaFleur confirmed Tuesday that Doubs is still following the five-step concussion protocol. The wideout may need to put in a full practice Wednesday and gain clearance from an independent neurologist to have a shot at playing Thursday in Detroit.

Packers' Romeo Doubs: Officially limited Monday
Rotowire
Doubs (concussion) was a limited practice participant Monday.
After sustaining a concussion against the 49ers in Week 12, Doubs didn't practice at all last week and eventually was ruled out ahead of last Thursday's game versus the Dolphins. He then was on the field in full uniform Sunday and followed it up with an official limited session to begin Week 14 prep. Clearly, Doubs has made some progress through the protocol for head injuries, but it remains to be seen if he'll be cleared by an independent neurologist before this Thursday's contest at Detroit.

Packers' Romeo Doubs: Takes part in practice Sunday
Rotowire
Doubs (concussion) was spotted in full uniform taking part in the Packers' practice session Sunday, Ryan Wood of USA Today reports.
While the Packers won't have to reveal their first Week 14 injury report until Monday, Doubs' presence on the field for an unofficial practice suggests he's made some progress through the NFL's five-step concussion protocol. After suffering the head injury last Sunday in the Packers' Week 12 win over the 49ers, Doubs didn't practice in any fashion this past week before he was inactive for Green Bay's 30-17 victory over Miami on Thanksgiving Day. In addition to advancing to full practice participation, Doubs will also need to gain clearance from an independent neurologist before exiting the protocol and putting himself on track to play in the Packers' Week 14 matchup with the Lions this coming Thursday.

Packers' Romeo Doubs: Not playing Thursday
Rotowire
Doubs (concussion) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Dolphins, Wes Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site reports.
Doubs suffered a concussion in the middle of the third quarter of this past Sunday's win against the 49ers when he drew a pass interference penalty in the end zone. He then was listed as a non-participant on all three practice estimates of Week 13 prep and thus won't be available Thursday. Dontayvion Wicks, Bo Melton and Malik Heath will be the candidates to see extra reps in three-wideout sets alongside Jayden Reed and Christian Watson. Meanwhile, Doubs' next chance for game action will come Dec. 5 at Detroit in another Thursday game.

Packers' Romeo Doubs: Concussion confirmed Sunday
Rotowire
Doubs won't return to Sunday's game versus the 49ers due to a concussion, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.
Doubs drew a defensive pass interference penalty in the end zone in the middle of the third quarter that helped set up Josh Jacobs' (cramps) second TD of the contest, but the wide receiver was slow to get to his feet and eventually the sideline before he was ruled out. Doubs will finish Week 12 with three catches (on six targets) for 54 yards.

Packers' Romeo Doubs: Sleeper WRs
Rotowire
Doubs has scored at least 17.4 PPR points in each of his past two games, and I like him as a borderline starter in all leagues against the Jaguars in Week 8. Jacksonville is No. 4 in most Fantasy points allowed to opposing receivers, and Doubs just had 10 targets in Week 7 against Houston for eight catches and 94 yards. Jayden Reed is a must-start receiver for the Packers in all leagues, but Doubs is right behind him. Christian Watson and Dontayvion Wicks are boom or bust receivers, but this is a great matchup to consider all of Green Bay's passing options in Week 8.

Packers' Romeo Doubs: Two TDs in return from suspension
Rotowire
Doubs caught three of four targets for 49 yards and two touchdowns in Sunday's 34-13 win over the Cardinals.
Doubs scored his first touchdown of the season on a 10-yard catch in the second quarter, then added a 20-yard touchdown grab in the third. Back in the Packers' good graces after being suspended by the team for the Week 5 win over the Rams, Doubs will look to build on this performance in a Week 7 home game against the Texans, for which Green Bay may not have depth option Dontayvion Wicks (shoulder) in its receiving corps.
