Packers WR Romeo Doubs expected to play but could be limited vs. Bears

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Romeo Doubs is expected to play on Sunday against the Chicago Bears but will likely be limited in his total number of snaps, per Ian Rapoport of NFL Network.

Doubs, who is battling a hamstring injury, practiced on Thursday and Friday and was listed as questionable on the final injury for Week 1.

Doubs caught 41 passes as a rookie and is entering Year 2 as a starter for Jordan Love. He was excellent during the preseason, catching four passes for 73 yards and a touchdown from Love over two games.

Doubs missed the preseason finale after injuring his hamstring. He only finally returned to practice this week.

If Doubs is limited on Sunday, the Packers will have only four other receivers available: rookies Jayden Reed, Dontayvion Wicks and Malik Heath and second-year receiver Samori Toure. Christian Watson, who also has an injured hamstring, won’t play on Sunday. The Packers did not elevate a receiver (Bo Melton or Grant DuBose) from the practice squad on Saturday.

Gameday inactives are due 90 minutes before kickoff on Sunday, so around 1:55 p.m CT for Packers-Bears.
