According to Adam Schefter of ESPN, Green Bay Packers defensive lineman Micah Parsons (knee) is believed to have suffered a torn ACL and is expected to miss the remainder of the 2025 season and potentially a part of the 2026 season. Parsons sustained this non-contact injury during their Week 15 loss to the Broncos. The Packers acquired Parsons from the Cowboys in a blockbuster deal in the offseason and eventually signed him to a massive four-year $188 million contract. Before exiting Sunday's game, Parsons tallied two tackles with one sack. Through the first 14 weeks of the season, Parsons tallied 12.5 sacks with 39 total tackles. While sidelined, fantasy managers should expect Lukas Van Nes to see a larger role on the defensive line.

Green Bay Packers defensive lineman Micah Parsons (knee) is questionable to return to Sunday's contest due to a knee injury. The superstar defensive lineman suffered this injury in the third quarter. This was a non-contact injury, and he needed assistance to walk off the field. Before exiting, Parsons tallied two tackles with one sack. For the remainder of the game, fantasy managers should expect Kingsley Enagbare and Lukas Van Ness to see an increase in snaps on the defensive line.

Green Bay Packers wide receiver
Christian Watson (chest) has been ruled out for the remainder of their contest against the Denver Broncos due to a chest injury. Watson sustained this injury in the third quarter when attempting to catch a pass from
Jordan Love, which was eventually intercepted by Patrick Surtain II. Before suffering this injury, the former first-round pick brought in just three of his five targets for 29. Fantasy managers should keep a close eye on his status leading up to a critical divisional tilt in Week 16 against the Chicago Bears. Managers should expect
Jayden Reed and
Romeo Doubs to take on lead duties in the passing attack with rookie
Matthew Golden moving up to the No. 3 role for the remainder of Sunday's game.

Green Bay Packers wide receiver
Christian Watson (chest) is questionable to return to Sunday's contest against the Denver Broncos due to a chest injury. Green Bay's top pass catcher sustained this injury in the third quarter when attempting to catch a pass that was eventually intercepted by Denver defensive back Patrick Surtain II. Before exiting, Watson brought in three of his five targets for just 29 yards. Leading up to this game, Watson was enjoying a strong stretch of play, averaging 18.4 PPR points from Weeks 11 through 14. Fantasy managers should expect
Jayden Reed,
Romeo Doubs, and
Matthew Golden to operate as the top WRs while Watson remains sidelined.

According to NFL Network's Tom Pelissero, Green Bay Packers running back
Emanuel Wilson (illness) will be active for this weekend's road matchup with the Denver Broncos. Wilson was listed on the Packers' injury report ahead of Week 15 with an illness. However, he'd miss no practice time as they gear up for their outing with the hosting Broncos. With teammate
Josh Jacobs (knee) also in line to play, the 26-year-old should assume his established role as the former's change-of-pace option in Green Bay's backfield. Wilson was excellent in Jacobs' stead back in Week 12 (28/107/2), though he's racked up just 24 yards on seven carries over the previous two games, relegating him strictly to handcuff status with the veteran healthy.

Green Bay Packers running back
Josh Jacobs (knee) will be active for Sunday's contest with the hosting Denver Broncos, according to NFL Network's Tom Pelissero. Jacobs has been dealing with a knee injury since Week 11, though he's missed just one appearance because of it. Despite being tagged with two DNPs leading up to this weekend's outing, the 27-year-old will suit up and should be slated for his usual workhorse role against the Broncos. Fortunately for Green Bay, second-string rusher
Emanuel Wilson (illness) is also expected to play, meaning the team's ground game will be at full strength against the league's second-best rush defense. Even with the injury, Jacobs is a high-floor RB2 option in Week 15.

Green Bay Packers wide receiver
Christian Watson has been in the end zone a ton over the last few weeks. In the previous four games, Watson has scored five touchdowns, while producing 80 receiving yards or more in two contests—the return of
Jayden Reed figures to cut into Watson's target share going forward. Watson also heads into a tough matchup against the Denver Broncos in Week 15. A secondary that has allowed the second-fewest yards per target to wideouts this season. Watson has been an elite deep threat for this offense, but would likely give fantasy managers a dud if he can't make those splash plays. Fantasy managers should be able to count on Watson as a WR3 this weekend. His fantasy value often hinges on him making a big play for a touchdown, so he's a somewhat risky choice against an elite secondary.

Green Bay Packers running back
Emanuel Wilson (illness) will be a game-time decision for Sunday's Week 15 contest against the Denver Broncos, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter. Wilson needs to see how he feels prior to kickoff before the team makes a ruling on his status. The 26-year-old reportedly felt sick at the team facility on Saturday and was sent home with medication to improve his condition. The Packers hope that he can suit up, but we likely won't get an official decision on his availability until inactives are announced at 2:55 p.m. EST. If active, Wilson will likely back up
Josh Jacobs (knee). Therefore, he can be left on the bench in most fantasy leagues.

Green Bay Packers running back
Josh Jacobs (knee) is expected to play in Sunday's Week 15 contest against the Denver Broncos, according to Adam Schefter of ESPN.com. Jacobs had been listed as questionable after missing two of his three practices in the past week. While the Packers want to keep him fresh and acknowledge that they have another game in just six days, the team plans to have Jacobs available for Week 15, barring any sort of pregame setback. This is good news for fantasy managers, because Jacobs has been an RB1 this season and will provide major scoring upside as the playoffs get underway in many fantasy leagues. He ranks as the overall RB13 in this week's RotoBaller fantasy rankings.

Wide receiver
Romeo Doubs has found it challenging to stay relevant in the Green Bay Packers' offense recently as the unit returns to health. Doubs was excellent earlier in the campaign, ripping off a string of viable fantasy performances as the only other option in the aerial attack aside from tight end
Tucker Kraft (knee). However, the return of teammate
Christian Watson and now
Jayden Reed has hindered his output in that aspect. Since Watson returned in Week 8, Doubs has hauled in more than two passes in a game only thrice, including outings with one and zero receptions. Moreover, the former is just 90 receiving yards behind him (542-452) despite appearing in six fewer contests. With Green Bay's receiving corps nearly at full strength, Doubs slides in the rankings and is a particularly risky asset for fantasy on a team with the fourth-lowest pass rate in the league (51.98%).

Green Bay Packers running back
MarShawn Lloyd (calf) has been on Injured Reserve the entire season with a calf injury, and he is now dealing with a hamstring injury, according to Tom Silverstein of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel. It was reported on Friday that the second-year back will not be activated from Injured Reserve this week. A hamstring injury has been an ongoing issue since training camp for Lloyd, but it wasn't listed when he was designated to return. Lloyd now just has one week of practice eligibility left before he must be activated, or he will be out for the rest of the season. The 2024 third-rounder has been devastated by injury since entering the league, playing in only one game since entering the league last year. If
Josh Jacobs (knee) is unable to play in Week 15 against the Denver Broncos, it will likely be
Emanuel Wilson (illness) leading the way with
Chris Brooks as the backup, though Wilson was also added to the injury report on Saturday with an illness.

Across 13 games this season, Green Bay Packers quarterback
Jordan Love has completed 67.1% of his pass attempts for 3,028 yards, 22 touchdowns, and four interceptions. The 27-year-old has played some of his best football in recent weeks, recording seven touchdown passes over his last two games. The Packers prefer to operate with a run-heavy approach, which limits Love's production upside. He's attempted fewer than 30 passes in seven out of 13 starts this season. However, Love is highly efficient, averaging 7.8 yards per pass attempt. If he can continue his recent run of touchdown production, Love could emerge as a consistent fantasy QB1 down the stretch of the season. The Packers will take on the Denver Broncos, Chicago Bears, and Baltimore Ravens over the next three weeks.

The Green Bay Packers have elevated running back
Pierre Strong Jr. from their practice squad to the active roster ahead of the team's Week 15 matchup against the Denver Broncos. With top Green Bay running backs
Josh Jacobs (knee) and
Emanuel Wilson (illness) both questionable for Sunday, the Packers could be forced to turn to Strong Jr. and
Chris Brooks in the backfield. The 27-year-old Strong Jr. has yet to appear in a game so far in 2025. Across 14 games with the Cleveland Browns in 2024, he recorded 212 scrimmage yards on 40 touches. Brooks has just 66 total carries across 37 career NFL games, so it's unclear who Green Bay would turn to as the lead back if both Jacobs and Wilson are out. Fantasy managers may want to stash Strong Jr. off the waiver wire just in case he finds himself in a prominent role come game time on Sunday.

Green Bay Packers running back
Emanuel Wilson (illness) has been added to the injury report and is officially listed as questionable to play in his team's Week 15 matchup against the Denver Broncos due to an illness. With running back
Josh Jacobs (knee) also questionable to play with a knee injury, Green Bay could be without its top two backs against Denver. The Packers have elevated running back
Pierre Strong Jr. from their practice squad for Week 15, which could be an indication that the team expects to be without at least one of Jacobs or Wilson. If both Jacobs and Wilson are sidelined, Strong Jr. and
Chris Brooks would likely handle the team's backfield work on Sunday. Fantasy managers should monitor the Green Bay backfield situation closely, as a final update on both Jacobs and Wilson may not come until closer to game time.

Green Bay Packers running back
Emanuel Wilson has spent the majority of the 2025 season working in a reserve role behind star Packers back
Josh Jacobs (knee). However, Jacobs is officially listed as questionable to play in Green Bay's Week 15 matchup against the Denver Broncos due to a knee injury that held him out of practice on both Wednesday and Thursday of this week. If Jacobs were to be sidelined in Week 15, Wilson would likely be in line to dominate Green Bay's backfield snaps against Denver. In Jacobs' lone missed game this season in Week 12 against the Minnesota Vikings, Wilson recorded 125 scrimmage yards and two touchdowns on 30 touches. Denver ranks first among NFL defenses in yards per carry allowed (3.7), which limits the appeal for both Green Bay running backs. Still, Wilson's projected workload in the event of a Jacobs absence would give him clear upside. Fantasy managers should closely monitor Jacobs' status and be ready to go to Wilson if Jacobs is ruled out for Week 15.
