Green Bay Packers wide receiver Romeo Doubs will go on the road to take on the Dallas Cowboys in the first round of the NFL playoffs. The 23-year-old has dealt with a chest injury that left him limited in practice this past week, but he was left off of the final injury report and will be good to go Sunday. Doubs has been incredibly touchdown-dependent for fantasy this season, failing to capitalize when his role was increased due to others missing time with injuries. Now, the second-year receiver will have to face off against a stiff Dallas defense and have more target competition than ever. The only Packers wide receiver with an injury designation entering the weekend is Christian Watson (hamstring). Rookies Jayden Reed and Dontayvion Wicks both ended the year on a high note, and Bo Melton has been a surprise bright spot down the stretch. Doubs is an incredibly risky DFS option on Sunday.
Green Bay Packers wide receiver Jayden Reed will go on the road to take on the Dallas Cowboys in the first round of the NFL playoffs. Reed has dealt with a chest injury but was a full participant all week in practice and was left off of the final injury report. The rookie recorded his first 100-yard receiving game of his career last weekend on just four receptions and enters the weekend as the potential top target for quarterback Jordan Love. Christian Watson (hamstring) is once again listed as questionable, while the rest of the Packers' receiving corps was left off of the final injury report. Reed is set to have the most competition for targets since the early portion of the season, but due to his success down the stretch, he should command a solid target share and could even handle a few carries for good measure. Reed is the top target in DFS when looking at the Packers' depth chart, but he also carries the heftiest price tag.
Green Bay Packers quarterback Jordan Love will go on the road to take on the Dallas Cowboys in the first round of the NFL playoffs. The 25-year-old ended the regular season on a tear, passing for 1,075 yards and nine touchdowns over the final four games. Love enters the weekend with nearly all of his weapons healthy for the first time in a long time. The only outlier is Christian Watson (hamstring), who is listed as questionable. With that said, the first-year starter has not needed everyone healthy to produce this season, and he will look to stay hot against a stiff Dallas defense. The Cowboys allowed the ninth-fewest fantasy points per game to quarterbacks this season, but Love is one of the cheaper options available in DFS on Sunday. He will be a sneaky pick during the first week of the playoffs.
Green Bay Packers head coach Matt LaFleur said that wide receiver Christian Watson (hamstring) is questionable to face the Dallas Cowboys on the road on Sunday in the wild-card playoff contest. It looked like Watson was close to playing in Week 18 against the Chicago Bears for the first time since straining his right hamstring in Week 13, but the Packers chose to play it safe and hold him out for a fifth straight game. The 24-year-old put in more limited practices this week and is trending toward a return, but it's hard to recommend him for DFS lineups as anything more than a boom/bust player because of his extended absence. Watson is an even more risky lineup option, considering the fact that rookies Jayden Reed and Dontayvion Wicks and Romeo Doubs (chest) will all be active against Dallas.
Green Bay Packers head coach Matt LaFleur said that running back AJ Dillon (neck, thumb) is doubtful to play in Sunday's wild-card playoff contest against the Dallas Cowboys. Dillon missed practices on Wednesday and Thursday after missing the Week 18 win over the Chicago Bears due to a stinger he suffered in Week 17. He's also recovering from a fractured thumb, but the stinger is the more serious injury and the one that will likely cause him to miss a second straight game. With Dillon likely out this weekend, it will make Aaron Jones more attractive in DFS lineups at a reasonable price against a Dallas defense that has been soft against the run at times this year. Patrick Taylor will most likely operate as Jones' backup in Dallas on Sunday.
