Marquez Valdes-Scantling (back) doubtful for Packers
Green Bay Packers wide receiver Marquez Valdes-Scantling (back) is doubtful for Saturday's Divisional Round game against the San Francisco 49ers, per head coach Matt LaFleur.
What It Means:
Valdes-Scantling injured his back early in Week 18 and it looks like he will be unavailable for the second round of the playoffs. Allen Lazard and Randall Cobb figure to soak up most of Valdes-Scantling's would-be targets on Saturday.
numberFire's models project Lazard for 5.3 targets and Cobb for 4.8 targets versus the 49ers. Davante Adams is expected to lead the Packers with 11.3 targets.
