With Green Bay Packers wide receiver
Jayden Reed (foot, shoulder) getting closer to a return from injury, now is an excellent time for fantasy managers to stash the third-year pro if they have room on the bottom of their benches. Reed fractured his clavicle in the early portion of the season and has missed the ensuing ten games while he recovers from surgery. The 25-year-old has been a practice participant for nearly two weeks now, although he's yet to log anything more than a limited session. There will likely be a significant ramp-up period; however, Reed has been a touchdown machine over the previous two seasons and has shown himself to be efficient on limited touches. Even with a dearth of talent in the team's WR room, Reed is worthy of consideration if available, as he could slot back into a premier role in the passing game when fully healthy.

Green Bay Packers rookie wide receiver
Matthew Golden (wrist) was a limited participant during Wednesday's practice. Golden has only been able to play in one of the last four games due to shoulder and wrist injuries. The rookie wideout hasn't been able to practice in full over the last two weeks. Fantasy managers will need to monitor his availability in practice over the next two days. When healthy, Golden has been disappointing with 24 receptions for 286 receiving yards in his first nine NFL games. There should be better streaming options available in most 12-team fantasy football formats ahead of Week 14. At best, Golden is a low-end flex option in deep leagues for the upcoming matchup against the Chicago Bears. The likelihood of Golden making a fantasy impact down the stretch is only going to get tougher once
Jayden Reed (foot, shoulder) returns from Injured Reserve, possibly this weekend.

Green Bay Packers wide receiver
Dontayvion Wicks (ankle) was a limited participant in practice during Wednesday's session. Wicks appears to have suffered a minor ankle injury during his epic Thanksgiving Day performance. He hauled in six of his seven targets for 94 yards and two touchdowns in the win over the Detroit Lions. Wicks has been basically a non-factor all season long outside his big performance last week. Especially with
Jayden Reed (foot, shoulder) getting close to returning from Injured Reserve, Wicks' Week 13 performance could very well end up being an outlier in 2025. Rookie
Matthew Golden (wrist) returning will also negatively impact Wicks' target share down the stretch. Despite last week's standout performance, Wicks should be considered a boom/bust WR4/flex for fantasy managers.

Green Bay Packers wide receiver
Jayden Reed (foot, shoulder) was a limited participant during Wednesday's practice session. Reed has been listed as a limited participant in every practice since having his practice window opened on Nov. 21. The 25-year-old still needs to receive medical clearance in order to be activated from Injured Reserve. He has been sidelined since breaking his collarbone back in Week 2. Reed is also recovering from surgery to fix a broken bone in his foot. If he's activated from IR and active this weekend, Reed would most likely see limited snaps against the Chicago Bears. He's worth a stash for fantasy managers willing to hold him on the bench until he's back to full health.

Green Bay Packers running back
Josh Jacobs (knee) was a limited participant during Wednesday's practice session. Jacobs sat out the Week 12 victory over the Minnesota Vikings with a knee contusion, but he returned last week for the Thanksgiving Day win against the Detroit Lions. It appears Jacobs is still dealing with lingering effects from his knee injury. He looked solid in Week 13, when he rushed for 83 yards on 17 attempts against Detroit. Jacobs being limited to begin the week is likely just the team being overly cautious. The 27-year-old should be viewed as a high-end RB1 for the upcoming matchup against the Chicago Bears in Week 14.

Green Bay Packers wide receiver
Romeo Doubs had an excellent stretch of fantasy viability from Week 4 to Week 9, with three games among the top-25 wide receivers. From Week 10 to now, Doubs has disappointed fantasy managers with lackluster production. He's averaged just 6.8 fantasy points per game in the four-game stretch starting in Week 10, and is averaging three receptions and 25 yards per game. Doubs has taken a backseat to not just the running game, but also
Christian Watson, who has exceeded Doubs' production in recent weeks. With the impending return of
Jayden Reed and
Matthew Golden into the Packers' wide receiver rotation, Doubs' production could be a bit more sporadic. Against the Chicago Bears in Week 14, Doubs is still a low-end flex option, but one that's much harder to trust than in the middle of the season.

Green Bay Packers wide receiver
Dontayvion Wicks is fresh off a Thanksgiving game in Week 13, where he was the WR3 for fantasy. Wicks put up his best game of the season, notching 94 yards on six receptions while bringing in two touchdowns in their win over the Lions. The Packers' pass-catching carousel seems to turn and turn, featuring different wide receivers heading up their production throughout the season. While Wicks has been on the field much more in recent weeks, a logjam is coming soon.
Jayden Reed is poised to return to the Packers' lineup soon, as is
Matthew Golden.
Christian Watson has been excellent over the past several weeks, and
Romeo Doubs remains a constant as well. Unfortunately, Wicks' Week 13 performance is likely the exception rather than the rule. Those in deep fantasy leagues may find Wicks useful as a flex option in the Packers' Week 14 game against Chicago, but typical 12-team formats may have more consistent fantasy options than Wicks this week.

The Green Bay Packers are opening the 21-day practice window for running back
MarShawn Lloyd (hamstring) this week, according to Tom Pelissero of NFL Network. It means that Lloyd can return from Injured Reserve at any time. The 24-year-old former third-round pick out of USC in 2024 hasn't played all year due to a hamstring injury that he suffered in the preseason in August. The Packers had high hopes for Lloyd in their backfield when they drafted the 5-foot-9, 220-pounder, but injuries have limited him to just one game since he entered the league. Lloyd worked on his body during the time off, but it remains to be seen when he'll make his 2025 debut. He will most likely be eased into Green Bay's backfield alongside
Emanuel Wilson and
Chris Brooks behind starter
Josh Jacobs, but he could be a valuable, explosive change-of-pace weapon in the postseason if he's healthy.

Green Bay Packers head coach Matt LaFleur said on Monday that even though wide receiver
Jayden Reed (foot, shoulder) is back at practice, he has to be given medical clearance to play, according to Rob Demovsky of ESPN. "The plan is to see where he's at by the end of the week," LaFleur said. Reed has been back at practice for over a week now, but he's still up in the air to be officially activated from Injured Reserve to play in a big Week 14 divisional game against the Chicago Bears. The 25-year-old is recovering from a broken foot that required surgery and a broken collarbone that he suffered back in Week 2. Reed should have a key role eventually in Green Bay's offense, and his nose for the end zone (18 total touchdowns through two-plus seasons) makes him a stash candidate in fantasy football leagues. However, expect Reed to be eased back into the Packers' offense when he's finally activated.

Green Bay Packers wide receiver
Jayden Reed (foot, shoulder) has been out since breaking his collarbone way back in Week 2, but he's been practicing in recent weeks and figures to be activated from Injured Reserve to make his return for a crucial Week 14 divisional clash against the Chicago Bears this weekend. The Packers will most likely ease Reed back onto the field after his long layoff due to a broken collarbone and after having surgery for a broken foot, but the 25-year-old is definitely deserving of being stashed in fantasy leagues for managers who have a shot at competing in the playoffs. Reed is widely available in Yahoo leagues, as he's only rostered in 38% of leagues heading into Week 14. Green Bay has a vast array of wideouts that they rotate on game days, but Reed has scored 18 total touchdowns in 35 career games and should have a key role once he's back up to speed following his injuries.

Green Bay Packers wide receiver
Christian Watson gave his Packers fans and his fantasy managers something to cheer about on Thanksgiving Day, as he hauled in four of his 10 targets for 80 yards and a touchdown. The 10 targets were the most he has seen all season, and with the Packers desperately looking for a No. 1 wide receiver to help out sixth-year quarterback
Jordan Love, Watson stepped up in a big way in Week 13. Wastson started the season on the Injured Reserve; however, since being activated in Week 8, he has produced 363 receiving yards, hauled in 21 receptions, and scored three touchdowns. As the weeks have progressed, and Watson has continued to ramp up, he has become the clear go-to target for Love with
Tucker Kraft (knee) out for the rest of the season. If Watson is on your waiver wire, he is a must-add in all formats and can be started in your lineups moving forward as a low-end WR2/flex play. Outside of a Week 15 matchup with the Denver Broncos, he gets some solid matchups against the Chicago Bears and the Baltimore Ravens for the rest of the fantasy season.

Green Bay Packers tight end
Luke Musgrave gained 23 yards on his lone reception in Thursday's 31-24 win over their division-rival Detroit Lions. Musgrave was targeted just once on Thanksgiving and has now recorded exactly one reception in three straight outings. It was thought that the third-year pro would assume Green Bay's TE1 duties after teammate
Tucker Kraft (knee) went down for the season with a knee injury. However, that hasn't been the case, as TE
John FitzPatrick had out-snapped Musgrave in the previous two games before Week 13's win. Moreover,
Jordan Love and the offense have leaned even less on the passing game recently, averaging just 25 pass attempts over the last three contests. Despite a decent amount of playing time, Musgrave can be safely avoided for fantasy purposes until the situation around him shifts.

Green Bay Packers defensive lineman Devonte Wyatt (ankle), who was carted off in the Thanksgiving Day win over the Detroit Lions on Thursday, suffered a fractured ankle, according to Ian Rapoport of NFL Network. Wyatt's season is expected to be over. The 27-year-old defensive tackle was carted off Ford Field in the fourth quarter and now won't be available the rest of the year. It's a notable loss for a strong Packers defense the rest of the way. The former first-rounder will finish his fourth year in the NFL with 27 tackles (15 solo), four sacks, six tackles for loss, seven QB hits, and two pass breakups in his 10 starts. Karl Brooks (ankle) is also dealing with an injury, so Nazir Stackhouse could see more playing time on the interior of Green Bay's defensive line going forward.

Green Bay Packers running back
Emanuel Wilson was limited to four carries on Thursday and was reverted to his regular backup role with
Josh Jacobs (knee) returning to the starting lineup after missing Week 12 with his injury. Wilson was expected to be a bit more involved given his production in Week 12, but at the end of the day, Jacobs dominated the carries, seeing 17 to Wilson's four. Meanwhile, neither were involved much in the passing game, with Jacobs hauling in just one reception to Wilson's zero. With Jacobs back in his starting role, Wilson is not providing much fantasy value to managers besides a handcuff to Jacobs. Fantasy managers with Jacobs on their team, it may be wise to roster him as a security blanket; however, if you are rostering Wilson without Jacobs, it may be time to say thank you for your Week 12 services and move on to help your team make a fantasy playoff run.

Green Bay Packers wide receiver
Christian Watson secured four of his 10 targets for 80 yards and a touchdown in a 31-24 win over the Detroit Lions on Thanksgiving. Watson had the longest play of the game with a 51-yard touchdown on a beautiful deep ball from
Jordan Love in the third quarter. The 26-year-old continues to thrive since returning in Week 7, totaling 21 receptions for 363 yards and three touchdowns on 34 targets, averaging 12.6 PPR points per game. The 2022 second-round pick has operated as Green Bay's WR1 recently, leading the team in routes run over the past three weeks and clearly being their best downfield threat. Watson could have had a bigger day on Thursday, but had a few tough drops. Still, it was another strong outing for Watson, and he projects favorably for the rest of the season.
