The Green Bay Packers may need to wait at least another week for the return of rookie receiver Romeo Doubs.
Coach Matt LaFleur said Doubs, who has missed two straight games with an ankle injury, probably wouldn’t be ready to play against the Philadelphia Eagles in Week 12.
“He’s getting closer, but I think it’s a little premature to put that out there right now,” LaFleur said Friday.
The Packers didn’t place Doubs on injured reserve, suggesting they believed he would be back within a four-game window.
Doubs was injured on an 18-yard catch on the offense’s first play from scrimmage against the Detroit Lions on Nov.
