Green Bay Packers quarterback
Malik Willis (shoulder, illness) is in line to start under center for the Week 17 matchup against the Baltimore Ravens. Starting quarterback
Jordan Love (concussion, shoulder) has been ruled out after getting concussed during last week's loss to the Chicago Bears. Willis came in as relief and completed nine of 11 passing attempts for 121 yards and a touchdown. He also rushed 10 times for an additional 44 yards on the ground. Willis suffered a shoulder injury in the process. He's currently questionable for this game, but he'll make the start for the Packers if he's cleared to play. Otherwise,
Clayton Tune might come off the practice squad and start if Willis is also ruled out. Willis is enough of a dual threat to be viewed as an option in superflex formats. Fantasy managers in standard 12-team formats should be able to find a more trustworthy streaming option at QB.

According to Adam Schefter of ESPN, Green Bay Packers quarterback
Jordan Love (concussion) has been ruled out for Saturday's contest against the Baltimore Ravens due to a concussion. Love sustained this concussion during their loss to the Bears last week and will need additional time ot pass through the league's protocol. While the second-stringer
Malik Willis (shoulder/illness) has a questionable tag, Schefter noted that Willis is expected to get the starting nod. Before exiting last weekend early, Love went 8-for-13 with 77 yards. However, during Weeks 13 through 15, Love was a viable QB1 in standard formats, averaging 24.1 PPR points per game with an 8:3 TD:INT. Managers should view Willis as a high-end QB2 facing a weak Baltimore defense that has allowed the 12th-most PPR points to opposing QBs.

Green Bay Packers wide receiver
Christian Watson (shoulder, illness) will be a slightly more volatile fantasy option than usual for Saturday's home matchup with the Baltimore Ravens. Watson, like quite a few of his teammates, is dealing with multiple injury designations for their Week 17 tilt with Baltimore. In unfortunate news for the 26-year-old, a late-week illness may keep him from suiting up, as he's been deemed questionable after recording a DNP for Thursday's practice. Even if Watson does eventually play, the uncertainty surrounding who will be the team's starting quarterback hurts his fantasy value. Currently, both
Jordan Love (shoulder, concussion) and
Malik Willis (shoulder, illness) are questionable, too, meaning
Clayton Tune could end up being the one calling signals in a worst-case scenario. Fantasy managers relying on the fourth-year pro should closely monitor his status up until game time. Watson ranks as RotoBaller's PPR WR35 for his outing with Baltimore.

Green Bay Packers quarterback
Jordan Love (shoulder, concussion) carries a bit of extra risk for this Saturday's outing with the visiting Baltimore Ravens if he's active. Love could only log limited practices this week, leading up to his game with Baltimore after dealing with a few injuries suffered in last Saturday's loss to the Bears. Unfortunately for Green Bay, the team is in danger of being without Love's backup,
Malik Willis (shoulder, illness), as he also deals with injury. As it stands, even if the 27-year-old is available to play, he could have a difficult time with a Ravens' defense that's been much improved over the back half of the season. He'll rank as RotoBallers QB20 if he suits up for Week 17's contest.

Per the team, Green Bay Packers wide receiver
Christian Watson (shoulder, illness) is officially questionable for the team's Week 17 clash with the visiting Baltimore Ravens. Watson has dealt with a shoulder injury for a few weeks now, but was able to participate fully for Green Bay's first two practices of the week. However, the 26-year-old was a late addition to the report, picking up an illness that led to his being listed as a non-participant on Thursday. Unfortunately, this puts his availability for the Pack's Saturday night matchup in doubt, making him a volatile WR3/flex if active. If Watson is unable to suit up, teammates
Matthew Golden and
Dontayvion Wicks would see an uptick in snaps behind
Jayden Reed and
Romeo Doubs in the passing game.

Green Bay Packers running back
Josh Jacobs (knee) is off the injury report and is good to go on Saturday night against the Baltimore Ravens. Jacobs was limited all three days of practice this week with a nagging knee injury he suffered in Week 11 against the New York Giants. He played just 40% of snaps in last week's stunning loss to the Chicago Bears, while Emmanuel Wilson played 47%. Jacobs faces a Baltimore Ravens defense that has allowed the 12th-most fantasy points to running backs this season. With the Packers firmly clinched in the postseason, there's a possibility Jacobs could be limited again in Week 17. However, fantasy managers can still trust him in starting lineups for fantasy championships this week.

The Green Bay Packers' defense and special teams unit have been a disappointing unit most of the season, and they'll host the Baltimore Ravens in Week 17. Against the Bears in Week 16, Green Bay did not tally a sack or a turnover in its second game since losing star pass rusher Micah Parsons for the season. Since losing Parsons, the Packers have not sacked the quarterback once in two games. They've only forced one turnover in that span as well, so fantasy managers have likely moved on from the Packers D/ST in terms of fantasy options. Even with the potential of
Tyler Huntley under center for the Ravens in Week 17, the Packers may not be good enough as a unit to take advantage of that matchup. Green Bay is a high-risk fantasy option in Week 17.

Green Bay Packers kicker
Brandon McManus has been a major roll over the past month or so, and he'll look to continue that hot stretch when the Packers host the Ravens in Week 17. McManus hasn't missed a kick in the five games he's been back since suffering a quad injury earlier this season. He's nailed his last 11 field goals and 13 extra points, which has led to double-digit fantasy performances in three of his last five weeks. No matter if the quarterback for the Packers is
Jordan Love or
Malik Willis, Green Bay should be able to find opportunities for McManus in the kicking game. That bodes well for fantasy managers looking to start him, and they should as a solid top-12 option this week against the Ravens.

December 25, 2025
Green Bay Packers tight end
Luke Musgrave could see a further uptick in his workload for the Packers in Week 17 as Green Bay takes on Baltimore on Saturday at Lambeau Field. Musgrave saw his highest percentage of routes per dropback this season in Week 16, running a route on 84% of dropbacks. That was primarily due to
John FitzPatrick (Achilles) leaving the game because of his injury, and Musgrave seeing that time on the field with Green Bay's TE3
Josh Whyle inactive. Musgrave should see the bulk of the snaps and routes for the tight end position in Week 17, but the murky quarterback situation with
Jordan Love (shoulder/concussion) and
Malik Willis (shoulder/illness), both questionable, makes it difficult to recommend Musgrave. Consider Musgrave a very risky play for fantasy managers in Week 17.

Green Bay Packers wide receiver
Jayden Reed remains decently involved in the Packers' passing attack, but will need more involvement to be a locked-in fantasy starter when the Packers host the Baltimore Ravens in Week 17. Since returning in Week 14 from injury, Reed hasn't crested double-digit fantasy points in any of his three games. Averaging four targets, four receptions, and 40 receiving yards per game since returning, Reed needs to get more involved in Green Bay's offensive production. He's still being used primarily in the slot with little utilization out wide, which limits his fantasy production. With the quarterback situation up in the air for the Packers with
Jordan Love (shoulder/concussion) and
Malik Willis (shoulder/illness) both questionable for Week 17, consider Reed a low-end flex for Saturday's game against Baltimore.

Green Bay Packers wide receiver
Romeo Doubs had a nice week in Week 16 and looks to parlay that into a second consecutive nice game as the Packers will host the Baltimore Ravens in a pivotal Week 17 showdown. In Week 16 against the Bears, Doubs put up a 5-82-1 line on six targets, leading the Packers in all receiving categories as
Jordan Love (shoulder/concussion) left the game and
Malik Willis came in. Both quarterbacks are questionable for Saturday's Week 17 tilt, leaving some doubt about how much the Packers will pass the ball. With
Christian Watson (shoulder/illness) questionable for Saturday's game, Doubs could see more targets directed his way if Watson doesn't play. However, with Green Bay's willingness to run the ball, passing volume is an issue for any Green Bay pass-catcher. Consider Doubs a low-end flex play for Week 17's matchup against Baltimore, which allows the fourth-most fantasy points per game to opposing receivers.

Green Bay Packers running back
Emanuel Wilson was solidly effective in Week 16 against the Chicago Bears, and looks to keep his run going as he and the Packers will host the Baltimore Ravens on Saturday in Week 17. Wilson led the running attack for the Packers even with starting running back
Josh Jacobs active. Jacobs had 12 carries for just 36 yards in the Packers' Week 16 defeat, but Wilson averaged almost 6.0 yards per carry with 82 yards on 14 rushing attempts. With Jacobs off the injury report for Week 17, it seems that Jacobs is going to take a bigger slice of the pie in terms of rushing attempts to close out the season for the Packers in their playoff push. For fantasy, that doesn't help give fantasy managers much clarity in how the Packers divide their rush attempts. As it stands, Wilson is a low-end, albeit risky flex play against Baltimore.

Green Bay Packers running back
Josh Jacobs (knee/ankle) is not on the injury report following three limited practice sessions, and he is good to go for the Packers' pivotal Week 17 showdown with the Baltimore Ravens on Saturday. Jacobs saw his lowest snap percentage (39%) and took just 12 carries for 36 yards in limited action in Week 16 against the Bears. He ceded the way to backfield mate
Emanuel Wilson, who averaged almost 6.0 yards per carry with 82 yards on 14 rushing attempts. Now that Jacobs is off the injury report, he should take the bulk of the carries in a must-win game against the Ravens in Week 17. While Jacobs isn't a locked-in fantasy RB1 like he was for most of the season, Jacobs is more of an RB2 option with plenty of upside for fantasy managers in Week 17.

Green Bay Packers quarterback
Malik Willis (shoulder/illness) is listed as questionable for Saturday's contest against the Baltimore Ravens. Willis joins the top option on the depth chart,
Jordan Love (concussion, shoulder), on the final injury report as both QBs carry a questionable tag into the weekend. Willis replaced Love during last Saturday's loss to the Bears and went 9-for-11 with 121 yards and a score. However, the former third-round selection left this game with a shoulder injury and also picked up an illness earlier in the week. Fantasy managers should continue to pay close attention to his status leading up to Saturday's kickoff. Still, Willis appears to be trending in the right direction, as he was able to practice in a limited capacity on Thursday, a significant upgrade after he was unable to practice on Tuesday and Wednesday. If Willis can progress enough, he would hold high-end QB2 upside facing a Baltimore secondary that has allowed the 12th-most PPR points to opposing QBs.

Green Bay Packers quarterback
Jordan Love (shoulder/concussion) is listed as questionable for Saturday's contest against the Baltimore Ravens. Love was forced from their Week 16 contest due to a concussion, but also carries an injury designation related to his left shoulder. In addition, the team's No. 2 QB,
Malik Willis (shoulder/illness), is also listed as questionable, which could pave the way for third-stringer
Clayton Tune (who is currently on the practice squad) to potentially make a start. Before exiting last weekend's contest, Love completed eight of his 13 passes for 77 yards. However, during Weeks 13 through 15, Love was quite productive, averaging a strong 24.1 PPR points per game with an 8:3 TD:INT. If Love can pass through the league's protocol, he would hold low-end QB1 value, facing an inconsistent Baltimore secondary that has allowed the 12th-most PPR points to opposing QBs this season.
