What's new: Packers coach Matt LaFleur expressed optimism that the problems leading to Doubs' suspension have been addressed and that the team is moving forward.
Yes, but: Doubs' frustration over his opportunities in the passing game may have contributed to his actions.

Jayden Reed has emerged as one of the top receivers for the Packers, potentially impacting Doubs' playing time and targets.
What to watch: The reaction of the team and how they rally around each other in the wake of Doubs' suspension will be crucial.
