Green Bay Packers wide receiver
Romeo Doubs (concussion) left the game and did not return during the third quarter of the Packers' 22-10 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles. Doubs hit his head on the ground when trying to make a catch in the end zone on a deep shot from quarterback
Jordan Love. Doubs was ruled questionable to return, but he never re-entered Sunday's contest. Prior to his departure, Doubs caught both of his targets for 13 yards on the afternoon. Heading into the final season of his rookie contract, Doubs tallied 46 receptions, 601 receiving yards, and four touchdowns this season. He should remain an integral part of the Packers' passing game in 2025.

According to Lauren Helmbrecht, Green Bay Packers wide receivers
Jayden Reed (shoulder) and
Romeo Doubs (concussion) are both questionable to return to Sunday's wild-card game. Both sustained injuries during the second half. Doubs suffered a concussion earlier this season and had to miss two games. With
Christian Watson (knee) already out for the season after tearing his ACL in the Week 18 regular-season finale, this leaves receivers
Dontayvion Wicks and
Bo Melton and tight end
Tucker Kraft as quarterback
Jordan Love's lone pass-catchers for the rest of this game. Reed was leading the team in receiving yards (46) before leaving, while Doubs had tallied 23 yards.

According to the team, Green Bay Packers offensive lineman Elgton Jenkins (stinger) is questionable to return to Sunday's wild-card game against the Philadelphia Eagles. Jenkins sustained this injury during the first quarter. Sixth-round selection Travis Glover replaced Jenkins on their drive. Fantasy managers should expect Glover to remain in that role while Jenkins is sidelined.

According to the team, Green Bay Packers defensive tackle Devonte Wyatt (lower leg) is questionable to return to Sunday's wild-card game against the Philadelphia Eagles. Wyatt sustained the injury in the opening quarter. While sidelined, Kenny Clark, Karl Brooks, and Tedarrell Slaton will see most of the snaps on the Green Bay defensive line.

According to the team, Green Bay Packers linebacker Brenton Cox Jr. (foot), and defensive tackle Tedarrell Slaton (ankle) are both active for Sunday's wild-card game against the Philadelphia Eagles. Cox was sidelined during Week 18 and logged three limited practice sessions this week. Slaton has yet to miss a game this season. Cox has appeared in seven games this season and tallied 12 tackles and four sacks. Slaton has tallied 30 tackles across 17 contests this season with one sack. Both defenders will operate as rotational pieces in Sunday's contest.

According to the team, Green Bay Packers linebacker Quay Walker (ankle) and safety Evan Williams (quadriceps) are both active for Sunday's wild-card game against the Philadelphia Eagles. Walker missed the previous three contests with an ankle injury and remained a limited participant in practice this week. Across 13 games this season, the linebacker has tallied an impressive 102 tackles with 2.5 sacks and two deflections. Williams has also missed the previous three contests but will return just in time for the playoffs. Through 13 games, the 23-year-old has tallied 49 tackles, three deflections, one interception, and a forced fumble. Both should see a heavy workload as they look to pull off the upset against the Eagles.

According to Tom Pelissero of the NFL Network, the Green Bay Packers have signed quarterback
Sean Clifford to the active roster before their playoff game against the Philadelphia Eagles. Clifford will serve as the team's emergency third quarterback as both
Jordan Love (elbow) and
Malik Willis (thumb) battled injuries during the week. While both quarterbacks are off the injury report and do not carry a designation, Clifford would be eligible to enter the game if both quarterbacks were to face a setback during Sunday's contest. Clifford only attempted one pass in his professional career and completed it for 37 yards during the 2023 season. DFS players should view Jordan Love as a low-end option in DFS as he will face a tough Philadelphia defense, the third-fewest PPR points to opposing QBs this season.

The Green Bay Packers defense and special teams unit will have their hands full during their playoff matchup with the Philadelphia Eagles in the Wild-Card round. The Eagles will have
Jalen Hurts (concussion/finger),
DeVonta Smith (back), and
A.J. Brown (knee) all playing as they were removed from Friday's injury report for Sunday afternoon's game. Add 2,000-yard rusher
Saquon Barkley to the mix and the Packers have a lot to contend with. Luckily, the Packers allow the fourth-fewest fantasy points against wide receivers and the ninth-fewest rushing yards to opposing quarterbacks. Against fantasy running backs, the Packers are below average, allowing the 14th-most fantasy points. With the Packers' defense not playing at a high level in their final two games against the Vikings and Bears, the Packers are hard to trust on the road against a full-strength Eagles' offense. It's best to play another team for DFS or in playoff contests that use team defenses.

Green Bay Packers wide receiver
Jayden Reed looks to right the ship following a backslide in regular season production as the Packers head to Philadelphia to play the Eagles in their Wild-Card game on Sunday afternoon. Reed's skills weren't utilized much after the Packers' Week 10 bye as he put up just one fantasy finish among the top 30 wide receivers. In the final eight games of the season, Reed averaged 3.5 targets, 2.4 receptions, and 36 total yards per game as the Packers leaned heavily on the run game. With
Christian Watson (knee) out for the season with a torn ACL, there could be more opportunities for targets for the Packers' pass-catchers. Still, Reed is a high-ceiling option that comes with a shockingly low points floor. For playoff contests and DFS, Reed is a boom-or-bust sleeper option during Wild Card Weekend.

Green Bay Packers wide receiver
Romeo Doubs (illness) practiced in full all week and was removed from Friday's final injury report. After sitting out for rest purposes in the Week 18 loss to the division-rival Chicago Bears in the regular-season finale, Doubs will be ready to play on Sunday against the Philadelphia Eagles on the road on wild-card weekend. And with
Christian Watson (knee) now done for the year with a torn ACL, the 24-year-old Doubs will have a higher fantasy ceiling, albeit against an Eagles secondary that won't be an easy matchup. And while Doubs should have slightly more opportunities, he will still be battling for targets with
Jayden Reed and
Dontayvion Wicks. During the regular season, Doubs was outside the top-50 wideouts in half-PPR points per game with a 46-601-4 line in 13 games. Consider him a boom/bust WR2 sleeper in DFS and playoff formats this weekend.

Green Bay Packers tight end
Tucker Kraft has a tall task ahead of him when the Packers head to Philadelphia to take on the Eagles on Wild Card Weekend. Kraft had a solid 2024 season, piling up 707 receiving yards and seven scores while finishing seventh amongst tight ends in both categories. With
Christian Watson (knee) out for the season with a torn ACL, Kraft should find a few more opportunities to catch some passes from
Jordan Love (elbow), who is off the injury report following a Week 18 injury. The Eagles have been tough on opposing tight ends this season as Philadelphia is third in DVOA against tight ends and give up the fourth-fewest fantasy points to tight ends in the regular season. Despite the tough matchup, Kraft is a decent play in playoff contests and a mid-range play for DFS for this weekend's slate.

Green Bay Packers wide receiver
Dontayvion Wicks will step up into a starting wide receiver spot as the Packers head east to Philadelphia to take on the Eagles in the Wild Card round. With
Christian Watson (knee) suffering a season-ending ACL tear, Wicks is the next man up for the Packers as he will line up opposite
Romeo Doubs for a prime opportunity in the playoffs. Despite Wicks' WR3 or WR4 status for much of the season, Wicks led the Packers in targets this season with 76. In fact, there were only two Packers who put up a game with 10 or more targets this season: Doubs and Wicks. Wicks earned 13 targets in Week 4 against Minnesota and scored two touchdowns, so it's clear Wicks has immense target-earning capability. He could prove to be a huge low-cost sleeper in DFS and in weekly playoff contests as well for this week's action.

Green Bay Packers running back
Josh Jacobs looks to keep his regular season momentum rolling into the playoffs as the Packers head to Philadelphia to take on the Eagles in their Wild Card game on Sunday afternoon. Jacobs ended the regular season with a bang as he scored 12 rushing touchdowns in his last eight games with a per-game average of 18 carries and 98 total yards in that span. To say Jacobs has been consistent after the Packers' Week 10 bye is quite an understatement. As Jacobs goes, so does the Packers' offense and with
Jordan Love (elbow) banged up following Week 18 but off the injury report, the Packers could choose to lean further on their rushing attack against the Eagles. Even with Philadelphia allowing the fewest fantasy points per game to running backs this season, Jacobs is a very solid touches-based RB1 for playoff and DFS contests.

According to Tom Pelissero of the NFL Network, Green Bay Packers quarterbacks
Jordan Love (elbow) and
Malik Willis (thumb) are off the injury report and good to go for Sunday's playoff game against the Philadelphia Eagles. Love sustained this elbow injury during last weekend's loss to the Chicago Bears. He opened the week as a limited participant but logged two consecutive full sessions to end the week. Willis replaced Love in Week 18 and followed the same practice pattern. Fantasy managers should expect Love to continue operating as the QB1, but Willis will be available if he suffers a setback during the game. Over his past seven full games (excluding Week 18), Love averaged a modest 214.3 passing yards per game with a 10:1 TD:INT ratio. He carries QB2 upside in a tough match against the Eagles, who have allowed the third-fewest PPR points to opposing QBs this season.

Green Bay Packers quarterback
Jordan Love (elbow) was a full participant in practice for the second straight day. It appears Love is trending in the right direction after being limited to open the week. Two straight full practices should mean Love will be active for Saturday's Wild-Card game against the Philadelphia Eagles. Love was pulled out early during the regular season finale as a precaution and it sounds like they limited to in order to keep him fresh. Barring any setbacks, Love will be out there for Saturday's game in what looks like it could be a high-scoring affair.
