The Green Bay Packers will face the Chicago Bears without starting receiver Romeo Doubs due to illness. Christian Watson, who was questionable with a knee injury, is active for the game. The Packers will also be missing defensive starters Jaire Alexander (injured reserve), Evan Williams (quad), Zayne Anderson (concussion), and Quay Walker (ankle).
GREEN BAY, Wis. – The Green Bay Packers will play without one of their starting receivers on Sunday against the Chicago Bears , but it’s not Christian Watson .
The Packers didn’t fill Alexander’s spot on the roster so have only six inactives. The others are defensive end Brenton Cox, who was questionable with a foot injury and didn’t practice this week, and offensive tackle Andre Dillard . “I’ve been feeling good about where I’m at,” he said. “It was obviously just the box I’ve got to check in terms of the higher-ups and the training staff to give me the green light to go. I’m going to approach it like I’m going. I’m going to approach every day like I’m trying to play, because I am.”
Watson was one of the heroes of Green Bay’s win at Chicago in Week 11, when he delivered 150 receiving yards, including a catch-and-run gain of 60 yards to set up the decisive touchdown. The Packers missed Watson’s field-stretching presence last week but Doubs stepped up with a productive game.
