The Green Bay Packers’ Week 4 matchup against the Minnesota Vikings has all the makings of a great football game.
Their status as NFC North rivals already has fans of both teams eager for their favorite squad to pop off and beat their opponents to secure their spot in an increasingly competitive division. Moreover, Aaron Jones’ Lambeau Field return has fans eager to see their defense contain their former star running back.
One narrative that’s flying under the radar for many Packers fans is Romeo Doubs’ slow start to the season. The 24-year-old wideout is having a slow start to the season after putting together a solid campaign as the team’s WR2 last season. If Doubs remains an ineffective red-zone threat against the Vikings, the Packers would have a tough time beating their opponents.
However, one analyst believes that Doubs will use the upcoming rivalry game as a platform to get his season back on track.
Analyst claims Romeo Doubs will get his first TD of the season for the Green Bay Packers vs. the Minnesota Vikings
ClutchPoints’ Shane Shoemaker wrote a detailed list of predictions on what will happen during the Green Bay Packers’ first match against the VIkings. Among his predictions was one where he believes the Nevada product will notch his first receiving TD of the season:
It’s been a slow start for Romeo Doubs this season. Last year, the Packers receiver was second on the team in receiving yards and third in touchdowns. This season, however, he’s barely been targeted, with just 12 targets resulting in eight receptions for 130 yards. Granted, this is likely due to Jordan Love’s injury, which has forced Matt LaFleur to adjust the offense for Malik Willis.
What better time for Doubs to score his first touchdown of the season than against the Vikings? His fantasy owners will rejoice in celebration.
Doubs finished the 2023 season with 674 receiving yards and eight TDs on 11.4 yards per carry. While his numbers look unimpressive, the narrative will change if Jordan Love starts against the Vikings.
Regardless of who plays under center for the Packers, fans can count on Doubs to be hungry and finally get his first TD against a tough rival.
