Romeo Doubs the New No. 1 Target in New England?
New England Patriots wide receiver Romeo Doubs will have an opportunity to emerge as Drake Maye's favorite target during the 2026 season. Doubs signed a multi-year contract this offseason to replace Stefon Diggs as the presumptive No. 1 receiver in New England. However, that role isn't guaranteed, especially given the growth we saw from Kayshon Boutte, Mack Hollins, Kyle Williams, and Hunter Henry. Doubs will need to hold onto his No. 1 role throughout camp and the preseason to warrant consideration as a weekly fantasy starter. If that happens, he'd likely rank as a high-end WR3/flex in redraft leagues. He's unlikely to offer quite as much fantasy value as Diggs, who was inconsistent week over week but still finished as the overall WR17 in PPR formats. Managers should also be cognizant of the fact that New England might not be done making moves. A Diggs return remains possible, and the Patriots have been heavily linked to a trade for A.J. Brown.

Romeo Doubs Will Help Fill the Void at Wideout for Patriots
The New England Patriots agreed to a four-year, $68 million deal with former Green Bay Packers wide receiver Romeo Doubs on Wednesday, and The Athletic's Chad Graff believes he "can make up for a lot of the production over the middle" that former receiver Stefon Diggs brought in 2025. Doubs can also play on the outside and should help New England's red-zone woes (20 of his 23 career touchdowns have come in the red zone). Doubs is only 25 years old and also thrives on the deep ball, which has become a specialty for quarterback Drake Maye. Diggs finished the regular season last year with 1,017 receiving yards and four touchdowns. In Green Bay, Doubs had 724 receiving yards and six touchdowns on 55 receptions in 16 regular-season games. It's certainly a great landing spot for Doubs' fantasy value going into 2026, but his true ceiling will depend on what else the Pats do at the position in free agency, via trade, and in the NFL draft in April.

Patriots Signing Former Packers Wideout Romeo Doubs
The New England Patriots are signing former Green Bay Packers wide receiver Romeo Doubs to a four-year deal for roughly $70 million on Tuesday, multiple sources told Jordan Schultz of FOX Sports. The 25-year-old former fourth-round pick (132nd overall) in 2022 out of Nevada had 202 catches on 320 targets for 2,424 yards and 21 touchdowns in 59 games (50 starts) in his four seasons with the Packers. Doubs had a career-high 724 receiving yards and six touchdowns in 16 regular-season games on 85 targets last year, filling in nicely for the offense with several other wideouts battling injuries throughout the year. He doesn't have the upside of a high-end WR1 in fantasy or real life, but Doubs is a significant signing for New England and for young quarterback Drake Maye to help replace Stefon Diggs. Depending on what else the Pats do at the receiver position in free agency, trades, and the draft, Doubs could have more upside left in an excellent landing spot.

Romeo Doubs to Have a Strong Market in Free Agency
Impending free-agent wide receiver Romeo Doubs plans to hit the free-agent market after talks with the Green Bay Packers didn't result in a new deal. According to Jeremy Fowler of ESPN, the New England Patriots, Washington Commanders, and Tennessee Titans are "closely watching his market," as are the San Francisco 49ers. Some evaluators consider Doubs to be the "best all-around receiver" in this year's group on the open market. It's basically the same list of interested teams for Indianapolis Colts impending wideout Alec Pierce. Doubs led the Packers with 724 receiving yards and six touchdown catches on 55 receptions in 16 regular-season games. The production doesn't exactly turn a ton of heads, but the 25-year-old has proven to be reliable and versatile, which will attract plenty of interest in free-agency. Doubs could be one of the most underrated sleeper receivers in fantasy drafts this fall, depending on his landing spot.

Romeo Doubs to Hit the Open Market
Wide receiver Romeo Doubs is set to hit free agency for the first time in his career after talks with the Green Bay Packers were unable to result in a new deal, according to ESPN's Jeremy Fowler. Amidst an underwhelming free agent class topped by the soon-to-be 26-year-old Alec Pierce, the market for Doubs is expected to be robust. He has averaged over 50 receptions for almost 700 yards and six touchdowns over the past three seasons and profiles as a WR2 or 3 on most offenses, utilized primarily along the boundary over the course of his four-year career. While he has struggled with untimely drops, his 5.2% drop rate in 2025 was the lowest of his career, while 66.3% reception rate marked a personal best.

49ers Have Interest in Alec Pierce, Romeo Doubs
The San Francisco 49ers have an interest in impending free-agent wide receivers Alec Pierce and Romeo Doubs, according to Albert Breer of Sports Illustrated. Brandon Aiyuk (knee) will be released soon, and it "sure seems" like Jauan Jennings won't be retained at the wide receiver position in the Bay Area. Former first-rounder and injury-prone wideout Ricky Pearsall would be the team's top wideout if both Aiyuk and Jennings leave, which is why it's not a surprise at all that the 49ers are looking at both Pierce and Doubs. Both wideouts are coming off career years with the Colts and Packers, respectively, and are in line for bigger roles with new teams in 2026 and beyond. Pierce, 25, had 1,003 yards and six touchdowns on 47 catches in 15 games as Indy's leading receiver. Doubs, 25, had a 55-724-6 line in 16 regular-season games. Pierce has a higher fantasy ceiling because of his big-play ability; he's led the league the last two years in yards per reception.

Bills Could Go After Romeo Doubs, Rashid Shaheed in Free Agency
Rival teams expect the Buffalo Bills to "strongly address wide receiver in the coming weeks," according to ESPN's Jeremy Fowler. Multiple league executives are linking Green Bay Packers wideout Romeo Doubs and Seattle Seahawks receiver/return man Rashid Shaheed to the Bills. The Indianapolis Colts' Alec Pierce will likely be out of Buffalo's price range, and he's also not expected to reach the open market. Shaheed is also being linked to the Las Vegas Raiders, with new head coach Klint Kubiak looking to bring him over after coaching him in Seattle in 2025. Doubs could be a good fit with the San Francisco 49ers. Doubs will probably be the more consistent fantasy option in 2026, and a move to Buffalo would make him very intriguing after he put up a 55-724-6 line in 16 regular-season games last season. He'd be the favorite for WR2 duties for the Bills behind Khalil Shakir.

Romeo Doubs Not Expected to Return to Packers
The Athletic's Matt Schneidman writes that Green Bay Packers impending free-agent wide receiver Romeo Doubs "is as good as gone in free agency." Doubs is coming off a strong fourth year in the NFL and is fully expected to sign a multi-year extension with a new team this offseason after catching 55 of his 85 targets for a career-high 724 yards and six touchdowns in 16 regular-season games. The 25-year-old former fourth-rounder in 2022 out of Nevada probably won't become a No. 1 wideout with a change of scenery, but he's an underrated player and should be easily considered a top-five free agent at his position going into next season. Doubs has 202 receptions for 2,424 yards and 21 touchdowns in his four NFL seasons, and with the right offense, he could become a priority target as a No. 2 or 3 wideout in fantasy in 2026.

Romeo Doubs Heading to Free Agency After Career Year
Green Bay Packers wide receiver Romeo Doubs surprisingly led the team in receptions (55), targets (85), and receiving yards (724) in 2025 while tying for the team lead in receiving touchdowns (six). Doubs' 724 receiving yards were a new season high in his fourth year in the league. The 25-year-old also finished strong, catching eight of his 11 targets for 124 yards and a touchdown in the Wild-Card playoff loss to the Chicago Bears. Doubs had a career high of 12 catches that went 20-plus yards in 2025. It helped that both Christian Watson and Jayden Reed missed substantial time with injuries, which allowed Doubs to maintain a steady target share throughout the season. Tight end Tucker Kraft (knee) also suffered a season-ending torn ACL. Doubs' numbers probably wouldn't have looked as great if everyone were healthy. Still, he's proven to be a reliable receiver with 2,424 yards and 21 TDs in his four seasons. The best bet for his 2026 fantasy value is for him to sign with another team and get away from Green Bay's crowded WR picture.

Romeo Doubs Paces Receiver Room in Busy Wild Card Loss
Green Bay Packers wide receiver Romeo Doubs caught eight of his 11 targets for 124 yards and one touchdown during Saturday's Wild Card loss against the Chicago Bears. Doubs was relatively inconsistent this season, but he feasted during his final two games against the Bears, totaling 13 catches, 208 yards, and two touchdowns during that span. The 25-year-old was one of several receivers who benefited from Jordan Love's busy passing game on Saturday. He and three other wide receivers all scored touchdowns, but he paced the team in targets, catches, and yards. Doubs is an impending free agent, and it seems likely that he'll test the market with an opportunity to escape from Green Bay's very crowded wide receiver room.

Romeo Doubs Tough to Trust Despite Favorable Wild Card Weekend Matchup
Across 16 games played in 2025, Green Bay Packers wide receiver Romeo Doubs recorded 55 receptions for 724 yards and six touchdowns on 85 targets. Doubs was Green Bay's most reliable wide receiver option through the early portion of the season, averaging 6.4 targets per game over his first 10 contests. However, his role was diminished down the stretch, as he averaged just 3.5 targets per game over his final six outings. Doubs' playing time dropped off in the second half of the season as well, as he played more than 76% of the Packers' offensive snaps in just two games after Week 10. Green Bay will face the Chicago Bears in the first round of the NFC playoffs on Saturday night. Doubs had a big game against Chicago in Week 16, recording five catches for 84 yards and a touchdown on six targets. However, he struggled mightily against the Bears in Week 14, going without a reception on two targets. Based on his late-season inconsistency and the question marks around his role in the Green Bay offense, Doubs profiles as a low-end wide receiver option for fantasy managers in playoff leagues.

Romeo Doubs a Low-End Flex Play in Week 17
Green Bay Packers wide receiver Romeo Doubs had a nice week in Week 16 and looks to parlay that into a second consecutive nice game as the Packers will host the Baltimore Ravens in a pivotal Week 17 showdown. In Week 16 against the Bears, Doubs put up a 5-82-1 line on six targets, leading the Packers in all receiving categories as Jordan Love (shoulder/concussion) left the game and Malik Willis came in. Both quarterbacks are questionable for Saturday's Week 17 tilt, leaving some doubt about how much the Packers will pass the ball. With Christian Watson (shoulder/illness) questionable for Saturday's game, Doubs could see more targets directed his way if Watson doesn't play. However, with Green Bay's willingness to run the ball, passing volume is an issue for any Green Bay pass-catcher. Consider Doubs a low-end flex play for Week 17's matchup against Baltimore, which allows the fourth-most fantasy points per game to opposing receivers.

Romeo Doubs Questionable to Return Against Bears in Week 16
Green Bay Packers wide receiver Romeo Doubs (wrist) exited during the fourth quarter of Saturday's Week 16 contest against the Chicago Bears. He is officially listed as questionable to return. Doubs suffered the injury while attempting to field Chicago's onside kick attempt. The ball bounced off the 25-year-old receiver and was recovered by the Bears, setting up a game-tying drive to force overtime. As Saturday's pivotal divisional battle enters overtime, the Packers are without Doubs, who was having a great game aside from the special teams miscue. On offense, he had caught five of his six targets for 84 yards and a touchdown. With Doubs sidelined, Dontayvion Wicks and Matthew Golden should earn more snaps behind Christian Watson and Jayden Reed.

Romeo Doubs is Getting Lost in the Shuffle
Green Bay Packers wide receiver Romeo Doubs has been an inconsistent fantasy option for over a month now. Doubs was offering decent fantasy value mid-season, but is becoming unusable in fantasy formats late in the season. The return of Jayden Reed has undoubtedly contributed to Doubs' downfall. The Packers also have a ton of mouths to feed with Reed, Christian Watson (chest), Dontayvion Wicks (ankle), and Matthew Golden all fighting for targets with Doubs. The 25-year-old has seen four or fewer targets in four straight games. It's unlikely that Doubs gets more involved unless Watson or Wicks sit out. At the moment, both players are questionable for the Week 16 matchup versus the Chicago Bears. If they play, Doubs will remain a low-floor option for Week 16.

Romeo Doubs is a Desperation Flex Option in Week 16
Green Bay Packers wide receiver Romeo Doubs has hit a snag with his fantasy production in recent weeks, but looks to turn a corner with the Packers set to square off against division rival Chicago in Week 16. Doubs was left off the stat sheet in the last meeting with the Bears in Week 14, earning two catchless targets. Last week, he got back on the board against Denver with two receptions for 36 yards. That said, it's tough to trust Doubs, even with some of the injury-related issues for the Packers at the wide receiver position. Christian Watson (chest) and Dontayvion Wicks (ankle) are both questionable, so if Watson is out, that could provide Doubs an opportunity to get back into fantasy relevance. For Week 16 against Chicago, Doubs is a desperation flex option with a very low fantasy points floor.

Romeo Doubs Can Be a Deep League Addition
Green Bay Packers wide receiver Romeo Doubs could get more work in the coming weeks, depending on the status of Christian Watson (chest). Watson left the team's loss to the Broncos after landing hard on his left shoulder while battling cornerback Patrick Surtain II for a jump ball. He was taken by ambulance to a local hospital for further examination, but he was able to fly home with the team and could avoid missing time. Doubs finished with only two catches for 36 receiving yards on Sunday, but he filled in more effectively earlier this season when Watson was sidelined. If you need receiver depth, adding Doubs makes sense if Watson misses any time. In Week 16, the Packers face the Bears in a very important divisional matchup, so watch the Packers' practice report for Watson's status this week.

Romeo Doubs Lagging Behind Watson in Production
Wide receiver Romeo Doubs has found it challenging to stay relevant in the Green Bay Packers' offense recently as the unit returns to health. Doubs was excellent earlier in the campaign, ripping off a string of viable fantasy performances as the only other option in the aerial attack aside from tight end Tucker Kraft (knee). However, the return of teammate Christian Watson and now Jayden Reed has hindered his output in that aspect. Since Watson returned in Week 8, Doubs has hauled in more than two passes in a game only thrice, including outings with one and zero receptions. Moreover, the former is just 90 receiving yards behind him (542-452) despite appearing in six fewer contests. With Green Bay's receiving corps nearly at full strength, Doubs slides in the rankings and is a particularly risky asset for fantasy on a team with the fourth-lowest pass rate in the league (51.98%).

Romeo Doubs is a Desperation Flex Play Against Broncos
Green Bay Packers wide receiver Romeo Doubs has seen a recent backslide in production, but he looks to get going again as the Packers travel to Denver to take on the Broncos in Week 15. Doubs' recent downturn coincides with Christian Watson's ascension to Green Bay's top target in the offense. While Doubs continues to run routes at a fairly solid clip, with over 72% routes per dropback in the last four games, he has just 10 receptions and 101 yards in his last four games combined. In Week 14 against the Bears, Doubs turned in his worst full-game outing of the season, with just two targets and zero receptions. Doubs had some trust from fantasy managers in the middle of the season when tight end Tucker Kraft went down with his season-ending injury, but since Watson's return, Doubs has been largely irrelevant for fantasy football. In a tough Week 15 matchup in Denver against the Broncos, consider Doubs a desperation flex play at best for fantasy.

Difficult to Trust Romeo Doubs Moving Forward
Green Bay Packers wide receiver Romeo Doubs' recent downturn over the last four games has coincided with Christian Watson's ascension in the Packers' offense as the top target. Doubs continues to run routes at a fairly solid clip, with over 72% routes per dropback in the last four games. Despite that, Doubs has just 10 receptions and 101 yards in his previous four games combined. In Week 14 against the Bears, Doubs posted his worst full-game performance of the season, with just two catchless targets. Doubs had some trust in the middle of the season when tight end Tucker Kraft went down with his season-ending injury, but since Watson's return, Doubs has been largely irrelevant for fantasy football. In a tough Week 15 matchup in Denver against the Broncos, Doubs is a desperation flex play at best.

Romeo Doubs is Quickly Losing Steam
Green Bay Packers wide receiver Romeo Doubs had a solid mid-season run where he was posting performances in the WR20 range. Now, Doubs appears to have taken a back seat in the receiving game with Christian Watson becoming quarterback Jordan Love's go-to target. Over the last four games, Doubs has finished with fewer than 50 receiving yards in three of them. Doubs managed to salvage his fantasy value with a touchdown during last week's Thanksgiving Day win over the Detroit Lions. Given his recent play, Doubs hasn't earned much faith from fantasy managers. The impending return of Jayden Reed (shoulder, foot) will make it even more difficult for Doubs to make an impact in Green Bay's crowded receiving room. For now, Doubs can be viewed as a low-end flex option for the Week 14 divisional matchup against the Chicago Bears.
