Doubs has also missed some time this season due to a concussion and suspension. He enters Week 18 with 46 receptions for 601 yards and four touchdowns in the 2024 campaign.

Here’s a look at how bettors view these two receivers in the support market in Week 18.

Fixture deals are currently quite limited with teams without players in Week 18, and while the Packers have something to play for (they could win the No. 6 seed in the NFC), they can only do so if Washington loses to the Dallas Cowboys on Sunday. .

As of this writing, bookmakers have yet to post props for Watson, a sign they expect him to sit out Week 18.

It doesn’t make sense for the Packers to rush to bring back the former second-round pick for this matchup, especially since he’s barely played in the last two weeks. Watson had just one target and played just 43 percent of the Packers’ snaps in Week 16 because of his knee injury.

Doubs appears to have a tendency to play, as oddsmakers have him pegged at +205 to find the end zone against Chicago.

However, the Bears have been stingy with the pass, allowing an NFL-best 17 passing touchdowns in 16 games this season. Not only that, but Doubs’ four touchdowns came in just two games this season, as he failed to find the end zone in 11 of 13 matchups.

He is a player who is difficult to trust in that Sunday market.
