Jayden Reed fractured his collarbone and will land on injured reserve, with surgery likely Tuesday and a hoped-for November return. Green Bay’s offense endured the loss as Reed’s early-season rhythm was already building after a Week 1 showing. In Reed’s absence, Green Bay leaned on Romeo Doubs and a deeper group that includes Dontayvion Wicks and rookie receivers Matthew Golden and Savion Williams, while tight ends Tucker Kraft and Luke Musgrave combined for a big role. Kraft’s six-catch, 124-yard day with a TD highlighted the depth of the offense as Green Bay moved to 2-0, a rare start that underscores Love’s growing command of the system and the resilience of a receiver room that can weather Reed’s absence.

Jayden Reed’s fractured collarbone lands him on injured reserve, with a 6-8 week timetable. Green Bay leans on a deeper receiving corps as Reed’s absence tests chemistry across Love’s targets. Romeo Doubs, Dontayvion Wicks, Matthew Golden and Savion Williams step into bigger roles, while Tucker Kraft and Luke Musgrave provide immediate TE upside. Kraft erupted for 124 yards and a TD on Week 1, signaling real depth behind Reed as Love’s connection with Doubs yielded a quick TD before the injury.

Week 2 kicks off with a stylish, high-stakes night as Green Bay hosts Washington on Thursday Night Football. The chatter centers on Rashan Gary and Micah Parsons as Week 1 sack pace anchors fantasy upside, while Luke Musgrave’s growing role for GB adds TE intrigue. Washington's visit to Green Bay and the prime-time slot on Prime Video set the stage for a marquee fantasy matchup, highlighting potential path to upside for GB playmakers and opportunities against WAS's defense.

Week 2 depth-chart shifts for Green Bay lean toward a tighter, more multiline offense. The Packers ride a heavier three-man WR rotation with Romeo Doubs, Matthew Golden and Dontayvion Wicks after Jayden Reed’s early exit, signaling a push to spread targets and reduce reliance on a single receiver.

Savion Williams saw expanded involvement, and tight ends Tucker Kraft and Luke Musgrave are closer in snaps, with John FitzPatrick serving as a blocker in some packages. Anthony Belton moved to right tackle, and Brant Banks joined field-goal protection duties, indicating ongoing line-rotation experimentation.

Defensively, Micah Parsons dominated EDGE reps, while Rashan Gary and Lukas Van Ness supplied pressure. Keisean Nixon and Carrington Valentine shared corner duties opposite Nixon, with Nazir Stackhouse and Barryn Sorrell facing limited use but expected to see more in coming weeks. Washington remained a backdrop as Green Bay pressed nickel packages.
