Packers WR Jayden Reed signed a three-year $50.25 million extension, including $20 million guaranteed according to his agents Drew Rosenhaus and Ian Grutman. The Packers traded WR Dontayvion Wicks to the Eagles earlier this month and also didn’t re-sign Romeo Doubs who left via free agency. Reed will remain the slot WR for the Packers behind Christian Watson and Matthew Golden.

ESPN's Rob Demovsky confirms that Packers WR Matthew Golden is in line to play a bigger role in 2026, following a quiet rookie season. Green Bay let WR Romeo Doubs depart in free agency and then traded WR Dontayvion Wicks to Philadelphia. That leaves Golden as the favorite for a starting outside spot opposite WR Christian Watson, with WR Jayden Reed in the slot. "Despite a rookie season in which the Packers never seemed to make Golden a focal point of the offense, they came away feeling the 2025 first-round pick was ready for more," Demovsky writes.

The Packers are trading WR Dontayvion Wicks to the Eagles in exchange for 2026 fifth- and 2027 sixth-round picks, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. Philadelphia is also giving Wicks a one-year, $12.5 million extension that keeps him signed through the 2027 season. Wicks has teased fantasy owners with a handful of strong outings over the last four seasons and registered strong marks in advanced metrics like targets per route and yards per route. But he never carved out a consistent role in Green Bay. There's opportunity for him to do so in Philadelphia ... if WR A.J. Brown is traded.

Packers WR Dontayvion Wicks (concussion) has been downgraded to out for Saturday night's Wild Card game vs. the Bears. That should leave Matthew Golden as the No. 4 WR behind Christian Watson, Romeo Doubs, and Jayden Reed, but the rookie isn't a recommended play in any fantasy formats.

The Green Bay Packers had 7 WRs active for Week 16. All 7 played, but Jayden Reed led the way in snaps. However, QB Jordan Love exited the game early due to a concussion, which led to a change in Green Bay's offensive approach. Additionally, RB Josh Jacobs aggravated a knee injury, which further complicates the Packers' WR offenseive approach heading into what is now a must-win Week 17

Packers WR Romeo Doubs suffered a wrist injury on his failed attempt to recover an onside kick in the fourth quarter of Saturday night's game vs. the Bears. The team is still evaluating the injury, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. We'll keep you updated on Doubs' status for next Saturday's game vs. the Ravens. His absence would likely mean more snaps for WRs Dontayvion Wicks and Matthew Golden, but neither guy would be a reliable fantasy play.

Packers WR Christian Watson went 4-89-2 on 4 targets in the win against the Bears. Watson tied for the team lead in targets along with TE Luke Musgrave and Jayden Reed in his first game since Week 2. Watson led the WRs with 44 snaps with the most routes run at 21. Watson has finished as a top-12 PPR WR in three of the last four weeks.

Packers WR Jayden Reed (foot, collarbone) is active for today’s game vs. the Bears. We’d be surprised if he played a full slate of snaps in his first action since Week 2 and would not have him in fantasy lineups. WR Matthew Golden (wrist) is also active for the first time since Week 11.

Packers WRs Jayden Reed (foot, collarbone) and Matthew Golden (wrist) are listed as questionable for Sunday’s game vs. the Bears. Both guys were limited in practice all week. Their returns would be a boost for QB Jordan Love, but neither guy should be in Week 14 fantasy lineups.

Packers WR Dontayvion Wicks was the star of Thursday's win over the Lions, hauling in six of seven targets for 94 yards and two TDs. He scored the game's first TD early in the second quarter on an impressive contested grab in the end zone from 22 yards out. Wicks' second TD came on a quick out from the one-yard line in the third quarter. He iced the game with a 16-yard reception to convert a fourth-and-three with under two minutes to go.

Packers WR Matthew Golden (wrist) is inactive for today's game vs. the Lions. Green Bay is also without WRs Jayden Reed and Savion Williams. Dontayvion Wicks will operate as the No. 3 WR but is only in play in Thanksgiving DFS contests.

Packers WR Matthew Golden (wrist) is listed as questionable for Thursday's game vs. the Lions after a limited week of practice. We're projecting the rookie to play but will get Green Bay's inactives around 11:30 am ET tomorrow. WR Jayden Reed (foot, shoulder) has been ruled out. He put in a limited week of practice and should have a good chance to return for Week 14. WR Savion Williams (foot) is also out for the Lions game. Christian Watson and Romeo Doubs remain the only viable fantasy plays in Green Bay's WR corps.

Packers WR Matthew Golden (wrist) was limited in Tuesday's practice. The shoulder injury he'd been dealing with is off the injury report. We're tentatively expecting the rookie back for Thursday's game vs. the Lions, but we'll see how he's listed on the final injury report tomorrow.

Packers WR Matthew Golden (shoulder) is inactive for today’s game vs. the Vikings. WRs Dontayvion Wicks (calf) and Savion Williams (foot) are active but shouldn’t be in fantasy lineups. Romeo Doubs and Christian Watson will operate the Green Bay’s top two WRs.

Packers WRs Matthew Golden (shoulder), Dontayvion Wicks (calf), and Savion Williams (foot) are listed as questionable for Sunday’s game vs. the Vikings. We’re expecting Golden and Wicks to play. Williams looks iffier after missing Friday’s practice. But Romeo Doubs and Christian Watson are the only Green Bay WRs that should be in Week 12 fantasy lineups.
