Jayden Reed Ramping Up his Rehab
Green Bay Packers wide receiver Jayden Reed (collarbone, foot) appears to be ramping up his rehab, according to Rob Demovsky of ESPN. Reed is still on Injured Reserve, but he was "working up a sweat" on a side field during Thursday's practice. The Packers have yet to open up Reed's 21-day practice window, but that might not be far off. The 25-year-old former second-rounder is rehabbing from a broken collarbone and a fracture in his foot that has kept him sidelined since Week 2. Despite the long layoff, Reed should become a big part of Green Bay's offense when he's back in the fold. Early in his career, he's proven to have a nose for the end zone, scoring 18 touchdowns (15 receiving, three rushing) in his 35 games (24 starts). The Packers have a crowded wideout room, but Reed, who is currently rostered in 35% of Yahoo leagues, deserves to be stashed in fantasy with his return looming.

Matthew Golden was "Definitely Close" to Playing Last Week
Green Bay Packers head coach Matt LaFleur said the team will see how practice goes this week for rookie first-round wide receiver Matthew Golden (shoulder), but he was "definitely close" to suiting up on Monday Night Football in the loss to the Philadelphia Eagles, according to Weston Hodkiewicz of Packers.com. LaFleur indicated that the Packers would ease Golden back into practice this week, and he was officially limited on Wednesday. If the 22-year-old can upgrade to a full participant by Friday, he should be cleared to return to the field for this Sunday's game on the road against the New York Giants. Golden certainly has not lived up to the preseason hype that surrounded him after being the 23rd overall pick in April, especially with Jayden Reed (collarbone, foot) out since Week 2. If he returns, he'll be a risky WR4/5 option for fantasy managers. Golden has yet to score in his first eight NFL games.

Is Jayden Reed Close To Returning?
Green Bay Packers wide receiver Jayden Reed (collarbone, foot) has been sidelined for seven consecutive games after suffering a broken collarbone during their Week 2 win over the Washington Commanders and being placed on injured reserve. His timeline to return was estimated to be around six to eight weeks, which we are close to approaching, and his 21-day practice window hasn't been opened yet. The 25-year-old has fully recovered from the Jones fracture in his foot, and he is making progress with his collarbone. The dynamic wideout should be able to return either for the Thanksgiving game versus the Detroit Lions in Week 13 or in the following week against the Chicago Bears. With multiple Packers' pass catchers banged up, Reed is well worth a stash for his eventual return in a few weeks.

Matthew Golden to be Eased Back Into Practice This Week
Green Bay Packers head coach Matt LaFleur said on Wednesday that the plan will be to ease rookie wide receiver Matthew Golden (shoulder) back into practice this week and "see where he's at." Golden missed the first game of his career in Week 10 against the Eagles after injuring his shoulder in Week 9 against the Panthers. The rookie wideout was limited in practice to open last week on Thursday before being downgraded to DNP on Friday and Saturday. Green Bay only held a walkthrough practice on Wednesday, so more will be known about Golden's status on Thursday. It's been an underwhelming season so far for the Packers' first-round pick, recording 23 receptions for 262 yards on 29 targets in eight games. Golden will look to only miss one game and get back on the field for Week 11 against the New York Giants.

Romeo Doubs "Should be Good to Go" on Sunday
Green Bay Packers head coach Matt LaFleur said that wide receiver Romeo Doubs (chest) "should be good to go" for the Week 11 contest this Sunday on the road against the New York Giants after leaving Monday night's loss to the Philadelphia Eagles early, according to Matt Schneidman of The Athletic. We'll closely monitor Doubs' practice status this week heading into Sunday's game, but as of right now, fantasy managers should expect to have him available in a very good matchup at MetLife Stadium. The 25-year-old will have an even higher ceiling and floor if rookie wideout Matthew Golden (shoulder) is forced to miss a second straight game with his shoulder injury. Through 10 weeks in 2025, Doubs leads the Packers in catches (35) and targets (56) while recording 446 receiving yards and four touchdowns as the team's WR1 with Jayden Reed (collarbone, foot) on Injured Reserve. UPDATE: Doubs put in a full practice on Wednesday.

Elgton Jenkins Placed on Injured Reserve
Green Bay Packers guard/center Elgton Jenkins (ankle) was placed on the injured reserve on Tuesday. Jenkins suffered a possible season-ending ankle injury during their loss to the Philadelphia Eagles on Monday. For now, Jenkins will head to the IR and will miss at least the next four games. This is a tough blow to Green Bay as Jenkins was playing extremely well lately. The Packers don't have a true backup center, so they might look at multiple candidates to replace Jenkins. Right now, Sean Rhyan and Jordan Morgan seem like the top candidates to take over the center spot in Green Bay.

Josh Jacobs is Automatic for the Packers and Fantasy Managers
Green Bay Packers running back Josh Jacobs has been as automatic a fantasy start as it gets this season. Jacobs has scored in every game this season but one and has been a top-10 fantasy running back in five of the last six weeks. Adding to that total in his game with the Philadelphia Eagles in Week 10, Jacobs put up 107 yards from scrimmage with five receptions and a rushing score. While Jacobs hasn't posted a 100-yard rushing game this season and has averaged just 68 rushing yards per game, fantasy managers are still beaming at just how inevitable Jacobs has been when it comes to scoring and his involvement in the Packers' offense. With the offensive game plan flowing through Jacobs and the run game each week, he's been the only thing that's consistently worked this season for Green Bay. Against the New York Giants, who are dead last in the NFL in defensive EPA per carry, Jacobs is a no-brainer RB1 lock for fantasy lineups in Week 11.

Consider Jordan Love Unstartable for Fantasy Football
Green Bay Packers quarterback Jordan Love has had his moments this season with two top-six fantasy finishes in nine games, but mostly, he's been an unstartable fantasy quarterback this season. In his past two games, Love has finished QB24 in both weeks and has combined for just 17.8 fantasy points against the Carolina Panthers and Philadelphia Eagles, with zero touchdown passes and one interception. He's averaged 225 yards passing and is now without Tucker Kraft and lost Romeo Doubs (chest) to what hopes to be a short-term injury during the Packers' 10-7 loss against the Eagles on Monday Night Football. With the Packers' receiving options dropping like flies, it's difficult to justify Love as a fantasy-worthy quarterback in any week moving forward. Even in a plus matchup against the New York Giants in Week 11, leave Love on the waiver wire.

Christian Watson Continues to Demonstrate Explosive Upside
Green Bay Packers wide receiver Christian Watson had an underwhelming game in his team's Week 10 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles, recording two catches for 45 yards on four targets. Still, Watson's fantasy outlook could be trending upwards coming out of the game, as Packers wideout Romeo Doubs (chest) was forced to exit Week 10 early due to a chest injury. In three games since returning from a knee injury that delayed his start to the season, Watson has recorded eight catches for 188 yards on 12 targets. Watson is averaging 23.5 yards per reception, which demonstrates his big-play ability. If Watson can earn a few more targets going forward, he could be in line for some explosive weeks. Additionally, the Packers have a much easier matchup in Week 11 against the New York Giants. In fantasy leagues with 12 or more teams where he remains available, Watson should be a waiver-wire target.

Elgton Jenkins Diagnosed With a Fractured Leg
Green Bay Packers offensive lineman Elgton Jenkins got rolled up on in a pile-up on Monday Night Football, and his leg was twisted up underneath him. It was initially announced as an ankle injury, but X-rays showed a fracture in his lower leg, according to ESPN's Rob Demovsky. Jenkins shifted to center this season after an All-Pro campaign at left guard, and his injury continues a string of issues on the offensive line, with left guard Aaron Banks and right tackle Zach Tom also sidelined. Running back Josh Jacobs continues to be effective, but the Packers only managed seven points in their loss to the Eagles on Monday and will need improved pass protection if they're looking to make a deep playoff run. Jenkins doesn't have a timeline yet, but the injury doesn't necessarily mean he'll be out for the year, depending on the exact recovery time.

Jordan Love Struggles in Monday Night Loss To Eagles
Green Bay Packers quarterback Jordan Love completed 20 of 36 passes for 176 yards and a lost fumble to go with five carries for 28 yards in a 10-7 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles. Love and the Packers offense couldn't get anything going on Monday night. The 176 passing yards marked the lowest of the season, and Love has now posted back-to-back games with below double-digit fantasy points. The 27-year-old certainly missed the presence of his star tight end Tucker Kraft (knee), plus dynamic rookie wideout Matthew Golden (shoulder), and then top receiver Romeo Doubs also left the game early with a chest injury. The Green Bay running game was stuck in the mud all game and didn't help set up Love in favorable down-and-distance situations, but he made plenty of mistakes as well. Love will look to bounce back in Week 11 against the New York Giants.

Josh Jacobs Scores 11th Touchdown of Season in Monday Night Loss
Green Bay Packers running back Josh Jacobs recorded 21 carries for 74 yards and a touchdown while adding five catches (six targets) for 33 yards in Monday night's 10-7 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles. It was an ugly offensive performance for both teams, and Jacobs had another inefficient outing on the ground. The 27-year-old is averaging just 3.8 yards per carry this season, which would be the second-lowest in a season for his career. Jacobs continues to be a touchdown machine, however, scoring for the sixth consecutive game. His 11 touchdowns are second only to Colts superstar running back Jonathan Taylor. Jacobs' fantasy production continues to rely heavily on volume, and it was encouraging to see his involvement in the passing game, as his five catches matched a season high. Jacobs will remain a solid RB1 for Week 11 against the New York Giants.

Romeo Doubs Questionable to Return in Week 10 Due to Chest Injury
Green Bay Packers wide receiver Romeo Doubs (chest) is questionable to return to his team's Week 10 matchup against the Philadelphia Eagles due to a chest injury. Doubs recorded one catch for five yards on four targets before getting hurt. If he is unable to return, Packers wideouts Dontayvion Wicks and Christian Watson are the most likely candidates to lead the team in targets and playing time the rest of the way. Doubs has been Green Bay's most consistent wide receiver so far this season, so his absence would be a significant loss for the team. Entering Week 10, the Packers were already without wide receivers Matthew Golden (shoulder) and Jayden Reed (collarbone, foot).

Jayden Reed Could be Worth Stashing with Return Looming
Green Bay Packers wide receiver Jayden Reed (collarbone, foot) is currently working his way back to the field. Reed was recently spotted at practice doing some light work. The 25-year-old has been out since suffering a broken collarbone in Week 2. Despite that, Reed could be back in the near future. He still hasn't returned to practice with pads, so fantasy managers shouldn't expect him to play in Week 11. However, Reed could be worth stashing on the IR for fantasy managers who have a spot available. Reed might still miss a few more games, but could be a decent contributor once he's healthy. Reed might be a nice addition to fantasy rosters right around playoff time.

Dontayvion Wicks Playing on Monday Night
Green Bay Packers wide receivers Dontayvion Wicks (calf), Savion Williams (foot), and Malik Heath (hip) are all active for the Monday Night Football game against the Philadelphia Eagles, according to Mike Spofford of Packers.com. Rookie first-round wideout Matthew Golden is out with a shoulder injury, so Wicks has the best chance of seeing elevated targets in three-wide sets on Monday next to Romeo Doubs and Christian Watson with Golden sidelined. It will be Wicks' first game since injuring his calf in the Week 7 win over the Arizona Cardinals. Despite Wicks' expected larger role on Monday night, the 24-year-old will still be a boom/bust DFS play against Philly. In six games played in 2025, Wicks has only 13 receptions for 134 yards and is still searching for his first trip to paydirt.
