Green Bay Packers

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Romeo Doubs was excellent in his second-consecutive game for the Packers as the team edged the Houston Texans 24-22 in Week 7. Doubs led the Packers with 10 targets, eight receptions, and 94 receiving yards as he was a key component of Jordan Love's passing attack. While Dontayvion Wicks, Tucker Kraft, and Josh Jacobs scored the touchdowns through the air for the Packers, Doubs was very efficient and was the only consistent target-earning for quarterback Jordan Love and the Packers on the afternoon. With so many quality pass-catchers for Love in this excellent Packers' passing attack, Doubs has an emphasis for the Packers following a one-game suspension a couple of weeks ago. With this emphasis on Doubs being a focal point of the offense, consider Doubs a low-end WR3 for the Packers' Week 8 matchup against the Jacksonville Jaguars.

Green Bay Packers running back Josh Jacobs was solidly effective for the Packers as he capped off his afternoon in Week 7 with a touchdown reception in the Packers' 24-22 victory. Jacobs averaged over 6.0 yards per carry, totaling 72 rushing yards on just 12 carries. Jacobs also caught 5-of-5 targets for 16 yards, including an eight-yard touchdown reception from quarterback Jordan Love in the third quarter. That touchdown grab was the first of his career and ended his streak of 211 receptions without a receiving touchdown; the longest in NFL history. While the passing game was on display for the Packers for much of the game, Jacobs was plenty involved and had a quality day for fantasy purposes. He'll look to continue that momentum as the Packers head south to face the Jacksonville Jaguars in Week 8, where Jacobs should be considered a low-end RB1 for that matchup.

Green Bay Packers quarterback Jordan Love tossed three touchdown scores for most of the Packers' scoring on the afternoon as the team edged the Texans 24-22 in Week 7. Love had an up-and-down game with 24 of 33 passing for 220 yards with three touchdown passes and two interceptions. A touchdown pass to tight end Tucker Kraft kicked off the scoring on a beautiful diving play. Minutes later, Love found receiver Dontayvion Wicks for a 30-yard touchdown with a perfect touch pass over the top. The final touchdown pass was running back Josh Jacobs' first receiving touchdown of his career, an eight-yard dump-off. Love was very good for fantasy production on the afternoon as he continued his streak of multiple-touchdown games in all five games he has played this season. The Packers head south to Jacksonville to face the Jaguars, where Love will be a locked-in QB1 for that pristine matchup in Week 8.

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Dontayvion Wicks (shoulder) is officially active for the Week 7 contest on Sunday at Lambeau Field against the Houston Texans. Wicks was limited in practice all week and picked up a questionable tag on the final injury report, but he will suit up after getting injured in last week's win over the Arizona Cardinals. The 23-year-old only caught one of his three targets for nine yards before getting hurt last week and had two receptions for 20 yards the week prior against the Los Angeles Rams. Wicks has found the end zone three times this year, including twice in the Week 4 loss to the division-rival Minnesota Vikings, but he'll continue to be a boom/bust WR4/flex for fantasy managers in a crowded receiver corps in Green Bay that also includes Jayden Reed, Christian Watson and Romeo Doubs.

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Christian Watson (ankle) turned in three limited practices this week and was removed from the Packers' injury report. He should be all set to suit up for Green Bay's game against the Houston Texans in Week 7. Watson returned to the lineup in Week 6 following an ankle injury that kept him out of Week 5's game with the Rams. He led the team with 68 receiving yards, catching 3-of-4 targets, plus a touchdown grab that capped off his afternoon. Watson's ankle is clearly being managed a bit more despite him taking 60% of snaps and 72% of routes per dropback last week, so with the stiff competition with Jayden Reed, Christian Watson, Tucker Kraft, Dontayvion Wicks, and other pass-catchers for target, Watson will be in a tough spot to return consistent fantasy production each week. Still, as Watson is a big play waiting to happen, he should be considered a boom-or-bust WR3 with solid flex viability this week against the Texans.
