Matthew Golden, Matthew Golden Inactive For Thanksgiving Game

Green Bay Packers rookie wide receiver Matthew Golden (wrist) has been ruled out for the Thanksgiving game against the Detroit Lions, according to Lily Zhao of FOX6 News. Golden is inactive for the second straight game after missing Week 12 due to shoulder and wrist injuries. The rookie first-rounder was listed as limited every day in practice this week, but ultimately wasn't ready to go on a short week. Golden last played in Week 11 against the New York Giants, but posted his lowest snap share of the season (33.3%) and recorded just one reception for 24 yards on three targets. He has been buried on Green Bay's depth chart with multiple other capable pass catchers, and the eventual return of Jayden Reed (foot, shoulder) could make the situation even murkier for Golden.

Jayden Reed, Jayden Reed Still a Strong Stash Option

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Jayden Reed (foot, shoulder) won't play on Thanksgiving against the Detroit Lions, but there's a solid chance that he will be able to return in Week 14 against the Chicago Bears. Reed has been sidelined since Week 2 after suffering a broken collarbone and was listed as limited in practice every day this week. Head coach Matt LaFleur kept the possibility of the 25-year-old returning on Thursday on the table before he was eventually ruled out, and there's hope that he will be activated from injured reserve soon. In the meantime, Reed remains a strong stash option for fantasy managers as he could return to a prominent role in Green Bay's passing attack alongside Christian Watson and Romeo Doubs.

Josh Jacobs, Josh Jacobs Feels Close to 100%

Green Bay Packers running back Josh Jacobs (knee) will play on Thanksgiving against the Detroit Lions and feels close to 100%, according to Ian Rapoport of NFL Network. Jacobs suffered a bone bruise in his knee in Green Bay's win over the New York Giants in Week 11 and was close to suiting up in Week 12, but with a second game coming up on Thursday, the team held him out, and he should be a full go against the Lions. Emanuel Wilson filled in admirably for the 27-year-old last week, handling 28 carries for 107 yards and two touchdowns, but he will return to backup duties with Jacobs back. Jacobs had scored nine touchdowns in his last six games before exiting early against the Giants, and fantasy managers will be happy to plug him back into their lineups in Week 13.

Brandon McManus, Brandon McManus a Low-End Starter for Week 13

Green Bay Packers kicker Brandon McManus matched his best fantasy output of the season in Week 12 and looks to keep that run going when the Packers head to Ford Field to face the Detroit Lions on Thanksgiving. McManus was successful on all three of his field goal attempts in Week 12 against the Minnesota Vikings, making kicks of 32, 30, and 40 yards. Also booting home both extra point attempts, McManus was K10 on the week and could be on the upswing now from a quad injury that's affected him at times this season. With the Packers heading to Detroit for their Week 13 matchup, McManus is a low-end starter for fantasy purposes.

John FitzPatrick, John FitzPatrick Not a Recommended Fantasy Option in Week 13

Green Bay Packers tight end John FitzPatrick has seen his opportunity with the Packers grow as of late, but is still a player to leave out of fantasy lineups when the Packers head to Detroit to take on the Lions on Thanksgiving. FitzPatrick has supplanted Luke Musgrave in terms of snap share and routes over the last two weeks for the Packers. Despite the increased snaps in the 60 percent range in each of the last two weeks for Green Bay, it's only turned into a combined two receptions and 16 yards on two targets. FitzPatrick's role is not as a receiver, so expecting fantasy production out of the Packers' tight end may not be realistic. Leave FitzPatrick off of your fantasy rosters when the Packers play the Lions on Thanksgiving in Week 13.
