GREEN BAY, Wis. (AP) -- Monday night's game between the Los Angeles Rams and Green Bay Packers could have showcased two Super Bowl-winning quarterbacks and some of the top wide receivers in the league.
Instead, Matthew Stafford and Cooper Kupp are on injured reserve for the Rams, Davante Adams is playing for the Las Vegas Raiders and Aaron Rodgers enters the game with some of the worst stats of his 15 seasons as the Packers starting quarterback.
And yet, amid all this, four young wide receivers - Green Bay's Christian Watson and Romeo Doubs, and Los Angeles' Ben Skowronek and Tutu Atwell - have stepped into their respective teams' voids at the position with promise and production.
