Romeo Doubs is serving as the Green Bay Packers' No. 1 pass-catcher this season thanks to injuries to Jayden Reed and Tucker Kraft.

But if we didn't know any better, we wouldn't say Doubs is Jordan Love's No. 1 target after he put together a quiet first half on Thursday against the Green Bay Packers.
Here's a closer look at what's going on.
Is Romeo Doubs playing today?
Yes, Doubs is healthy and in the lineup, although you wouldn't know it after he posted just two catches for 10 yards in the first half, but he did score a touchdown.
Doubs is likely getting heavy attention from the Lions' secondary, and Love has been spreading the ball around, making it more difficult for Doubs to get going.
