Overview

  • Romeo Doubs returned Aug. 18 from a week-long back injury and dropped two passes in his first 10 practice reps during a torrential downpour.
  • Bleacher Report’s Kristopher Knox named him the Packers’ leading roster-cut candidate as camp moves toward final 53-man decisions.
  • Green Bay bolstered its wide receiver room with first-round pick Matthew Golden and third-rounder Savion Williams, squeezing veteran opportunities.
  • Pro Football Focus data shows 22 drops in 43 career games and a 9.4% drop rate last season, fueling questions about his reliability.
  • Cutting Doubs before his 2026 free agency would free about $3.4 million in cap space and open a roster spot as injured receivers Christian Watson, Jayden Reed and Dontayvion Wicks work back to full health.
