Matt LaFleur: 'I want to vomit' when asked about Packers WR1
Green Bay Packers head coach Matt LaFleur expressed frustration over the media's persistent questioning about the team's No. 1 wide receiver. He emphasized that the Packers have multiple capable receivers rather than a singular standout. The team's wide receiver situation has been under scrutiny since the trade of Davante Adams, but LaFleur believes the depth and versatility of the current roster can lead to success. Last season, rookie Jayden Reed led the team in receptions, while other young talents like Christian Watson and Dontayvion Wicks also made significant contributions.

Packers' Jordan Love could start Week 1 without WRs Romeo Doubs, Christian Watson
Jordan Love could potentially start Week 1 without his top two receivers, Romeo Doubs and Christian Watson, due to hamstring injuries. This would leave second-year pro Samori Toure as the only receiver on the roster with regular-season game experience. The Packers also have three rookie receivers on the roster and two on the practice squad, who could potentially be elevated for Sunday's game against the Bears.
