Packers WR Romeo Doubs has a high-ankle sprain. Those are generally 4-6 week injuries, though further tests will determine the timeframe. But another target for Aaron Rodgers to miss time.

This offense was an abject disaster before Doubs went down, and stud running back Aaron Jones may be forced to miss time as well. Seventh-round rookie Samori Toure stepped in and logged a season-high 28 snaps, turning four targets into a 2-34 line. Outside of Allen Lazard working as a fantasy WR3, this entire passing offense is a stay-away after the team managed nine points against the NFL's worst defense in Week 9.

Allen Lazard said he heard a “snap, crackle and pop” in his left shoulder and said this week vs. Buffalo is probably a no-go.

The Green Bay Packers' WR1 has eclipsed 70 receiving yards on only two occasions this season, so his departure from the lineup is probably not affecting your fantasy team too much. In a good passing offense, this would help raise the tide of other wide receivers but in Green Bay, it likely just means that you should be starting tight end Robert Tonyan and leaving Romeo Doubs and Sammy Watkins for all of the most desperate situations.

Packers receiver Allen Lazard had to exit Sunday’s game with a shoulder injury.

At this point, it’s unclear whether he’ll be available for Green Bay’s Week Eight matchup against the Bills

Lazard had six catches for 55 yards before he had to leave the game. He currently leads Green Bay’s struggling offense with 340 receiving yards and four touchdowns on 26 catches, the story said.
Multiple reporters spotted Lazard in a sling in the Packers’ locker room after the game, it went on to say. Lazard will need to be monitored this week as far as his Week 8 status goes.

Watson had been rotating in during Weeks 4 and 5 before missing last week's game, and it's trending toward that inevitability again. Sammy Watkins has been activated off IR and could be a go for Week 7, so targets could spread more spread out as the season continues, which is bad news for Allen Lazard.

Packers HC Matt LaFleur told reporters that WR Allen Lazard (ankle) will return to practice today.

Lazard missed all of practice last week and did not play Sunday, as the tweet reminded us. The Packers play this week on Sunday Night vs. the Bears so Lazard owners may need to have a plan in place if his status takes us right up to game time.

The thought is that Allen Lazard will be listed as questionable for Week 1, which leaves a brief window of opportunity for him to see the field.

While Lazard missing time could mean a boost for any of the four wide receivers listed above, it may be even more likely that team veterans Robert Tonyan (TE) and Aaron Jones (RB) will get peppered with targets to kick off the season. Last season, the team ran 24 plays out of 21 personnel, but they may show that look a whole lot more with Tonyan, Jones, and A.J. Dillon if Lazard ends up missing one or more games.

Aaron Rodgers has called Allen Lazard a WR1 all year. If Lazard (ankle) can't go, then Sammy Watkins could be the No. 1 option.

Demovsky said Watkins seems ready and added this quote from him: "I’ve never been this sharp. Just to be this sharp, it feels good to go out there and play freely and play fast." It makes sense Watkins would be a top target with Watson and Doubs rookies and still earning trust.

It's a good sign Watson will be able to go Week 1, especially with Lazard dealing with an injury and a bit of a question mark at this point. Doubs, Cobb and Watkins should also be involved.
