GREEN BAY, WI (WSAU) – The Packers are a little more than 48 hours away from kicking off against the Chicago Bears and were down a wide receiver for the third straight day.
Romeo Doubs was limited in yesterday’s practice as he continues to nurse a hamstring injury, but after practicing today again, he appears to be on track to start on Sunday.
According to ESPN’s Rob Demovsky, Christian Watson was present at practice on Friday, but he stretched separately from the team in the rehab area. He did have his helmet with him but was wearing sneakers instead of cleats, signaling that he would not be participating.
Christian Watson (hamstring) was in a jersey, did some light stretching and jogging but did not go outside with the rest of the team.
David Bakhtiari present but not practicing. So looks like he’ll play without any full reps the last 2 weeks.

The Packers will be expected to rely heavily on rookies Luke Musgrave, Jayden Reed, and Malik Heath on Sunday if Watson is unable to go. Fans can also expect a heavy dose of Aaron Jones and AJ Dillon due to the Bears starting this season with a young and still-developing defensive line.
