Green Bay Packers wide receiver Romeo Doubs has reportedly grown frustrated with his role on the team.
The third-year pro has skipped the Packers’ last two practices and is currently listed as “doubtful” for the team’s Week 5 matchup against the Los Angeles Rams at SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, Calif. due to a “personal matter.”
Doubs is reportedly “upset with his opportunities in the passing game,” according to Sports Illustrated’s Bill Huber.
Doubs reportedly was an unannounced no-show for the team’s Thursday session. Packers officials, worried about Doubs’ well-being, found him safe and sound at his home.
The Packers entered the 2024 season with one of the most promising young wide receiver rooms in the NFL. But amid the slew of options at Matt LaFleur’s disposal, Doubs reportedly feels like he deserves to be featured above the rest.
Doubs is one of three different Packers wideouts with at least 20 targets. He’s second on the team in both catches (12) and receiving yards (169). However, the 24-year-old has yet to score a touchdown this season.
Green Bay’s offense has been in flux so far this season given the injury scare suffered by Jordan Love in Week 1. In Love’s Week 4 return, Doubs was targeted eight times and tallied four receptions for 39 yards.
