The Green Bay Packers‘ offense may once again be shorthanded on Thursday night.
With Thursday’s showdown against the Detroit Lions looming large, Packers quarterback Jordan Love may still be without one of his most important weapons in the passing game in Green Bay’s biggest game of the year.
According to the Packers’ Tuesday injury report, wide receiver Romeo Doubs remains in the concussion protocol, signaling that it is unlikely he’ll be able to take the field in Week 14.
In Doubs’ absence, the Packers will likely lean even heavier on playmaking wide receiver Jayden Reed.
Reed enters this week as the Packers’ leading receiver, with 693 yards, and six touchdowns, as well as Love’s full confidence in the vertical passing game.
“He’s a tone-setter,” Packers head coach Matt LaFleur said of Reed earlier this week.
If the Packers are once again without Doubs, Reed may once again play a vital role for the offense.
