Jayden Reed’s collarbone and left-foot surgeries sideline the Packers’ rising playmaker, forcing an immediate shift at receiver. With Reed and Christian Watson out or limited, Jordan Love will lean on Romeo Doubs, Dontayvion Wicks, and the rookie Matthew Golden, while Malik Heath and Savion Williams earn snaps. Tucker Kraft figures to see increased targets as the TE group steps up in a run-heavy, spread-friendly system. Week-to-week volatility is the theme early in this stretch.

Fantasy managers should monitor snap counts and target splits as the Packers test depth. Doubs carries a clear floor with upside, Wicks offers big-play potential, and Golden could rise into a larger role if the offense needs a speed element. If Watson returns by Week 6, the landscape could shift again, but until then the cement is being laid by a young, opportunistic group.
