Green Bay Packers quarterback Jordan Love will most likely be without his two of his favorite wide receivers for Sunday’s matchup against the Los Angeles Rams.

Christian Watson and Romeo Doubs have both been listed as doubtful. Watson suffered an ankle sprain in Week 4’s loss to the Minnesota Vikings and didn’t practice this week. Doubs missed practice on Thursday and Friday due to a personal reason.

Doubs has 20 catches for 169 yards on the season, while Watson has five receptions for 80 yards and a touchdown in four games.

Love will be relying more on wide receiver Jayden Reed, who leads Packers’ receivers with 17 catches and 336 yards. He also has two touchdowns.

Other healthy receivers going into Sunday’s game include Dontayvion Wicks, Bo Melton, and Malik Heath.
