News

  • Starts preseason opener

    Valdes-Scantling started Saturday's preseason opener against the Bears, catching one pass for 11 yards.

    Analysis: Valdes was targeted twice in Patrick Mahomes' lone drive. His lone catch kept the drive alive on third down. Mecole Hardman was the only other wideout targeted by Mahomes, with JuJu Smith-Schuster failing to receive a look.

  • Inks three-year deal

    The Chiefs have signed Valdes-Scantling to a three-year deal, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

    Analysis: Per the report, the speedster's three-year pact is worth up to $36 million. Following the trade of Tyreek Hill, it was clear that the Chiefs needed to fortify their wideout corps, and adding Valdes-Scantling to the mix is a step in the right direction. The 27-year-old, who caught 26 of his 55 targets for 430 yards and three TDs in 11 games with Green Bay last season, will bring a field-stretching element to a Kansas City wide receiver depth chart that also includes JuJu Smith-Schuster and…read more

  • Inactive versus 49ers

    Valdes-Scantling (back) is listed as inactive for Saturday's wild-card game against the 49ers, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: Valdes-Scantling came down with a back injury Week 18 at Detroit, and while he logged a limited practice when the Packers reconvened Tuesday, he proceeded to miss back-to-back sessions to close out this week. On Thursday, coach Matt LaFleur termed Valdes-Scantling doubtful to play in the team's postseason opener, and he'll sit this one out. In a fortunate turn of events, Randall Cobb completed his recovery from core muscle surgery and was activated from injured reserve Thursday, so he'll join…read more

  • Likely out for divisional round

    Packers head coach Matt LaFleur said Thursday that Valdes-Scantling (back) will be listed as doubtful for Saturday's divisional-round game versus the 49ers, Tom Silverstein of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

    Analysis: Even with the benefit of a first-round bye for the postseason, Valdes-Scantling hasn't been able to shake off the back injury he picked up in the Packers' Week 18 loss to the Lions. He began the week as a limited participant in practice Tuesday, but he was listed as a non-participant in Wednesday's session and wasn't on the field for the open portion of Thursday's practice, per Wes Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site. Valdes-Scantling's downgrade in activity the past two days coupled with…read more

  • No activity Wednesday

    Valdes-Scantling (back) was held out of practice Wednesday.

    Analysis: One day removed from logging a limited session, Valdes-Scantling fell back to his activity level from last Wednesday's unofficial practice due to the back issue he picked up in the regular-season finale at Detroit. Ultimately, Thursday's injury report will be telling for his potential to suit up for Saturday's divisional-round game against the 49ers.

  • Limited in return to practice

    Valdes-Scantling (back) was limited at Tuesday's practice.

    Analysis: Valdes-Scantling was removed from a Week 18 loss to the Lions in the second quarter and eventually diagnosed with a back injury. He wasn't a part of the Packers' unofficial session last Wednesday, but with a week to rest up he's back on the field, albeit with a cap on his reps. Valdes-Scantling will have two more chances to get back to full participation before the team potentially gives him an injury designation ahead of Saturday's divisional-round game against the 49ers.

  • Practicing Tuesday

    Valdes-Scantling (back) took part in practice Tuesday, Ryan Wood of the Green Bay Press-Gazette reports.

    Analysis: The bye week appears to have treated the Packers well, as a number of key players on both the active roster and injured reserve mixed into drills at the media-access portion of Tuesday's session. Valdes-Scantling himself is dealing with a back issue that he suffered in the regular-season finale and kept him off the practice field last week. Wednesday's injury report will reveal his activity level.

  • Not at practice

    Valdes-Scantling (back) didn't practice Wednesday, Ryan Wood of the Green Bay Press-Gazette reports.

    Analysis: Valdes-Scantling apparently isn't ready for practice three days after injuring his back in the second quarter of Green Bay's Week 18 loss to Detroit, but he'll have some extra time to get healthy with his team on bye in the first round of the playoffs. If Valdes-Scantling isn't ready for the next round, Allen Lazard and Randall Cobb (groin) will be the top candidates to take on extra snaps and targets.

  • Picks up back injury

    Valdes-Scantling departed Sunday's game at Detroit with a back injury, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: Prior to heading to the locker room in the second quarter, Valdes-Scantling was unable to haul in his only target from Aaron Rodgers. The Packers thus are left with Davante Adams, Allen Lazard, Equanimeous St. Brown, Juwann Winfree and Amari Rodgers at wide receiver for the rest of Week 18. Valdes-Scantling will have a week to rest and recover in advance of the team's playoff opener in the divisional round.

  • Quiet in return

    Valdes-Scantling was targeted three times and caught one pass for three yards in Sunday's 37-10 victory over the Vikings.

    Analysis: Valdes-Scantling returned to action after spending Week 16 on the reserve/COVID-19 list, and he played about as many snaps as he was handling prior to his absence. However, the Packers leaned heavily on four other players and Valdes-Scantling made only a blip in the box score. Valdes-Scantling remains a boom-or-bust fantasy option, and his prospects will be tilted toward the latter in Week 18, as starting quarterback Aaron Rodgers (toe) could be limited or held out altogether with the Packers…read more

  • Off COVID-19 list

    The Packers activated Valdes-Scantling (illness) from the reserve/COVID-19 list Wednesday, Doug Kyed of Pro Football Focus reports.

    Analysis: Valdes-Scantling sat out the Packers' Week 16 win against the Browns after testing positive for the virus last Tuesday, marking his sixth absence of the campaign. Per usual, his production has been sporadic on a weekly basis when available, with a respectable 25-427-3 receiving line on 51 targets in nine appearances. Valdes-Scantling will rejoin Allen Lazard as the co-No. 2s behind top wide receiver Davante Adams.

  • Added to COVID-19 list

    Valdes-Scantling was placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list Tuesday after testing positive for the virus.

    Analysis: He becomes the second Green Bay player added to the list, joining defensive tackle Kenny Clark. If Valdes-Scantling is vaccinated, he'll have a chance at being cleared ahead of Saturday's game against the Browns so long as he's asymptomatic of the virus. The 27-year-old is coming off a big Week 15 outing against the Ravens in which he recorded five receptions for 98 yards and a touchdown on seven targets.

  • Big game Sunday

    Valdes-Scantling caught five of seven targets for 98 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 31-30 win over the Ravens.

    Analysis: Valdes-Scantling enjoyed one of his best performances of the season on a day when top wideout Davante Adams was limited to just 44 yards. Along with matching Adams' team-leading target tally, Valdes-Scantling went for long gains of 31 and 25 yards, with the latter catch coming on a third-and-nine play to begin the fourth quarter. Fittingly, Valdes-Scantling then scored from 11 yards to cap that series, marking his third touchdown of the campaign. After Sunday's encouraging outing,…read more

  • Active for Week 15

    Valdes-Scantling (back) is listed as active Sunday in Baltimore, Mike Spofford of the Packers' official site reports.

    Analysis: After a week in which his practice reps were capped due to a back injury, Valdes-Scantling will be available to the Packers offense Week 15. Working alongside top wide receiver Davante Adams doesn't allow for consistent volume, but Valdes-Scantling and fellow secondary option Allen Lazard will aim to exploit a Ravens defense that has conceded 8.6 yards per target (seventh worst in the NFL) and 12 touchdowns (tied for 15th most) to the position in 13 games this season.

  • Questionable after limited practice

    Valdes-Scantling (back) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game in Baltimore, Jeff Zrebiec of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: He appears on track to play after logging limited practices throughout the week. With Randall Cobb (groin) on IR for at least two more games and likely the rest of the regular season, both Valdes-Scantling and Allen Lazard have been in full-time roles alongside Davante Adams. The Packers and Ravens are scheduled for a 4:25 ET kickoff Sunday, with Amari Rodgers, Malik Taylor (abdomen) and Juwann Winfree the options to fill in at WR if Valdes-Scantling is inactive or limited.

  • Another limited listing Thursday

    Valdes-Scantling (back) was limited at Thursday's practice.

    Analysis: Valdes-Scantling maintained his listing from Wednesday's estimated injury report. He has one more session remaining during Week 15 prep, after which the Packers may give him a designation ahead of Sunday's game in Baltimore.

  • Limited by back issue

    Valdes-Scantling was listed as limited participant on Wednesday's estimated injury report due to a back injury, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: Valdes-Scantling has been a hit-or-miss performer in his eight appearances this season, turning in two outings of more than 50 yards plus one touchdown, while falling short of those thresholds in every other game but one. He and Allen Lazard are the co-No. 2 wide receivers behind top dog Davante Adams, but Valdes-Scantling's status now is one to monitor as Sunday's game in Baltimore approaches.

  • Catches three passes

    Valdes-Scantling was targeted five times and caught three passes for 20 yards in Sunday's 45-30 victory over the Bears.

    Analysis: Valdes-Scantling caught at least three passes for the third game in a row, but he also took a clear back seat to both Davante Adams and Allen Lazard in Week 14. Valdes-Scantling has been plenty busy of late, racking up 24 targets over his last three games and playing at least two-thirds of the snaps in each contest, but he also caught just 11 passes during that span, and 75 of the 193 yards he tallied came on one play. He'll take on a depleted Ravens secondary Week 15, but he presumably will be…read more

  • Commands nine targets

    Valdes-Scantling recorded four receptions on nine targets for 50 yards in Sunday's 36-28 win over the Rams.

    Analysis: Valdes-Scantling finished tied for the team lead with nine targets and likely benefited from the absence of Randall Cobb (groin) in the second half. Valdes-Scantling now has 19 targets combined across his last two games. He continued to serve as a deep threat for the team, as he recorded a 28-yard reception early in the third quarter. As a result of that reception, Valdes-Scantling now has at least one reception of 20 or more yards in three consecutive games and has topped 40 total receiving…read more

  • Rips off 75-yard TD

    Valdes-Scantling had four receptions on 10 targets for 123 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 34-31 loss to the Vikings.

    Analysis: Valdes-Scantling moved into the starting lineup with Allen Lazard (shoulder) missing the contest. The 27-year-old took full advantage of the opportunity, breaking off a 75-yard touchdown while nearly matching his total season output in just one game. Lazard's status for Week 12 is still up in the air, so Valdes-Scantling could get another start alongside Davante Adams against the Rams. That scenario could result in another high-usage game for MVS if the latter has to deal with Jalen Ramsey.

  • Ready to face Vikings

    Valdes-Scantling (hip) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Vikings, Wes Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site reports.

    Analysis: Valdes-Scantling was limited in practice Friday for the second day in a row due to the hip issue, but the Packers weren't concerned enough about the injury to deem him questionable heading into the weekend. Meanwhile, Allen Lazard (shoulder) is listed as doubtful for the Week 11 contest, so Valdes-Scantling should have a clear path to a regular spot in three-receiver sets alongside No. 1 option Davante Adams and slot man Randall Cobb. Valdes-Scantling, Lazard and Cobb had split work as the Nos.…read more

  • Dealing with hip issue

    Valdes-Scantling was limited at Thursday's practice due to a hip injury, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: Valdes-Scantling already has had a stint on injured reserve this season, sitting out Weeks 4-8 due to a hamstring issue. In two games since his return to action, he's gathered in three of four passes for 60 yards and no scores. Valdes-Scantling wasn't listed on Wednesday's practice report, so his appearance Thursday is somewhat concerning. In the end, though, the Packers may clear up his status following Friday's session.

  • Makes one catch

    Valdes-Scantling caught one pass for 42 yards on two targets against Seattle on Sunday.

    Analysis: That Valdes-Scantling saw just two targets indicates the Seahawks were taking the deep threat seriously. It's the one card that MVS can always count on, but when defenses take it away he sometimes goes cold for stretches. Valdes-Scantling might not be consistent in this role, but he won't stay cold forever. The Vikings will have to take him seriously in Week 11.

  • Two receptions in return

    Valdes-Scantling was targeted twice and caught two passes for 19 yards in Sunday's 13-7 loss to the Chiefs.

    Analysis: After missing five games with a hamstring injury, Valdes-Scantling returned to action Week 9. He was on the field for over half of the 63 plays run by the Packers offense, but his opportunities to contribute were minimal. Valdes-Scantling averaged 5.3 targets in the three games he played prior to his absence, and he -- like all Packers pass catchers -- should benefit when starting quarterback Aaron Rodgers (illness) is back in the fold. However, fantasy players will want to see more from…read more

  • Activated off IR

    Valdes-Scantling (hamstring) was activated off injured reserve Saturday and is eligible to play Sunday against the Chiefs.

    Analysis: The Packers' receiving core is now back to full strength with Davante Adams and Allen Lazard both returning from the reserve/COVID-19 list, but they'll obviously be without star quarterback Aaron Rodgers, who tested positive for COVID-19 earlier this week. The speedy wide receiver brings a much-needed deep threat to the Packers offense, but it's unclear how different this version of the offense will be with Jordan Love slated to make his first career start.

  • Returns to practice

    Valdes-Scantling (hamstring) was designated to return from injured reserve Monday, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Valdes-Scantling was a game-time decision for Thursday's contest against Arizona but ultimately was unable to suit up. However, he returned to the practice field Monday for the first time since early October. Although Davante Adams (illness) was unable to practice Monday, Allen Lazard (undisclosed) was on the field, signaling that the Packers' receivers are nearing a return to full strength.

  • Not activated Thursday

    The Packers didn't activate Valdes-Scantling (hamstring) from injured reserve ahead of Thursday's game at Arizona, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: Green Bay thus will be without three of its top wide receivers, including Davante Adams (illness) and Allen Lazard (undisclosed), both of whom are on the reserve/COVID-19 list. With the trio sidelined Week 8, Randall Cobb, Equanimeous St. Brown, Malik Taylor, Amari Rodgers and Juwann Winfree will serve at the team's WR options.

  • Unlikely to be activated Thursday

    Valdes-Scantling (hamstring) is trending toward an absence for Thursday's game at Arizona, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: If the preceding comes to pass, the Packers will be without their top three wide receivers, as both Davante Adams and Allen Lazard are on the reserve/COVID-19 list and slated to be unavailable as well. Valdes-Scantling is in the later stages of his recovery from a hamstring injury and has missed the requisite three games while on IR, but it appears Green Bay will wait another week before bringing him back to the active roster. With the aforementioned trio out, the Packers' wide receiving corps…read more

  • Headed for game-day decision

    Valdes-Scantling (hamstring) is traveling to Arizona for Thursday's game against the Cardinals and hopes to be activated from injured reserve ahead of the contest, Doug Kyed of Pro Football Focus reports.

    Analysis: The Packers have until 4 p.m. ET on Thursday to activate Valdes-Scantling from IR. They might have been inclined to wait another week, until Davante Adams and Allen Lazard both landed on the reserve/COVID-19 list. With the team's wideout group severely depleted, Valdes-Scantling is hoping to play in Thursday's game without first completing a practice, and after missing the past three weeks due to a hamstring injury. It's a situation where a pitch count would make sense if Valdes-Scantling suits…read more

  • Could return Thursday

    Valdes-Scantling (hamstring) has a chance to return from injured reserve for Thursday's game against the Cardinals, Ryan Wood of the Green Bay Press-Gazette reports.

    Analysis: Valdes-Scantling has missed the last four weeks with a hamstring issue, but he participated in running drills Monday. Packers head coach Matt LaFleur said the 27-year-old will be evaluated Tuesday to see how he feels, but the wideout seems to have a good chance to return to game action this week if he isn't feeling sore. Until Green Bay designates Valdes-Scantling to return from IR, he won't be eligible to join the team for practices.

  • Moved to IR

    Valdes-Scantling (hamstring) was placed on injured reserve Saturday.

    Analysis: This was hardly a surprise given Valdes-Scantling was expected to miss a couple of weeks. Equanimeous St. Brown was elevated to the active roster from the practice squad, but it's likely Allen Lazard, Randall Cobb and Amari Rodgers will see an increased workload alongside usual stalwart Davante Adams.

However, when the clock starts to tick on his absence remains to be seen. If he lands on IR on Saturday, he'll be sidelined through at least Week 6 at Chicago. With Valdes-Scantling out of the picture for the time being, Allen Lazard, Randall Cobb, Amari Rodgers and Malik Taylor will pick up the slack behind top wide…read more

  • Won't play against Steelers

    Valdes-Scantling (hamstring) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Steelers, Ryan Wood of the Green Bay Press-Gazette reports.

    Analysis: With Valdes-Scantling sidelined, the Packers offense won't have the element of his speed to take the top off the Steelers defense, though top receiver Davante Adams is no slouch when it comes to making plays downfield, and Allen Lazard is capable of doing so as well. MVS will look to heal up enough to return to the field Week 5 against the Bengals.

  • Logging another absence Thursday

    Valdes-Scantling (hamstring) won't participate in practice Thursday, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: Valdes-Scantling pulled up on a route in the fourth quarter of this past Sunday's win in San Francisco. He's been held out of both sessions this week as he tends to a hamstring injury, which isn't believed to be a long-term issue following an MRI, coach Matt LaFleur told Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com on Thursday. The Packers are expected to take a decision on Valdes-Scantling down to the wire, so his status for Week 4 against the Steelers may not be known until 90 minutes before Sunday's 4:25 p.m.…read more

  • Week 4 status to come down to wire

    Head coach Matt LaFleur said the Packers will need all week to know whether Valdes-Scantling (hamstring) will be able to suit up Sunday versus the Steelers, Tom Silverstein of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

    Analysis: In the wake of the hamstring injury suffered by Valdes-Scantling late in the Packers' Week 3 win at San Francisco, he was unable to practice Wednesday. He has two more opportunities to get on the field this week, which will be key for the fourth-year wide receiver to put himself in a position to play Week 4. If Valdes-Scantling needs some time off, Allen Lazard and Randall Cobb figure to pick up the slack alongside top wide receiver Davante Adams.

  • No practice Wednesday

    Valdes-Scantling (hamstring) didn't take part in practice Wednesday, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: Valdes-Scantling was merely a spectator, which could indicate the hamstring pull he sustained late in the Packers' Week 3 win at San Francisco may not be severe. In any case, with an absence at practice to begin the week, he's behind the curve in his quest to suit up this Sunday against the Steelers. Valdes-Scantling will have two more chances to practice before that contest.

  • Hurts hamstring Sunday night

    Valdez-Scantling (hamstring) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against San Francisco.

    Analysis: Valdez-Scantling pulled up while running a deep route, but the Packers caught a break when fellow wide receiver Davante Adams returned to the game on the next play after Adams had gone to the medical tent due to a big hit over the middle. Prior to getting hurt, MVS was in the midst of a strong bounce-back performance, with three catches for 59 yards and a touchdown on four targets.

  • Goose egg in Week 2

    Valdes-Scantling was targeted four times but did not make a catch in Monday night's 35-17 win over the Lions.

    Analysis: Valdes-Scantling had a frustrating outing, but not really through any fault of his own. His first target was broken up along the sideline, then quarterback Aaron Rodgers missed him with a would-be one-yard touchdown later on. Valdes-Scantling subsequently was overthrown by Rodgers on two attempted deep shots in the second half when he had a step on his man. He and Rodgers will hope to get their timing down ahead of Week 3's matchup versus the 49ers.

  • Contained in Week 1

    Valdes-Scantling was targeted seven times and caught three passes for 17 yards in Sunday's 38-3 loss to the Saints.

    Analysis: Valdes-Scantling led the NFL in yards per reception a season ago, but the Saints prevented him from getting loose for even one big play down the field. On the positive side, Valdes-Scantling did tie Davante Adams for the team lead in targets and was on the field for just four fewer snaps than the Packers' top wideout, so there's reason to believe he can get going Week 2 against the Lions.

    Valdes-Scantling will not play in Saturday's preseason opener against the Texans, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.

  • Facing challenge for starting job?

    Valdes-Scantling will compete with Allen Lazard, Amari Rodgers and Devin Funchess for complementary roles in the Green Bay offense, Wes Hodkiewicz of Packers.com reports.

    Analysis: Last year, Valdes-Scantling tied for second on the team with 63 targets, less than half as many as Davante Adams. This year, the speedy wideout could see even fewer looks, as the Packers' improved depth at wide receiver will make it tough for Valdes-Scantling to match last year's snap count (793, 76.3 percent). On the other hand, MVS finished last season strong with a 4-115-1 receiving line in the playoff loss to Tampa, and his 4.37 speed sets him apart from Lazard, Rodgers and Funchess. Any…read more

    Valdes-Scantling recorded four receptions on six targets for 115 yards and one touchdown in a 31-26 loss to the Buccaneers in Sunday's NFC Championship Game.

    Analysis: Valdes-Scantling opened the scoring for the Packers with a 50-yard touchdown reception early in the second quarter. He also connected with Aaron Rodgers for a number of other big gains, including receptions of 29 and 24 yards. The performance marked only the second time that he surpassed 100 yards in either a regular-season or postseason contest during the 2020 campaign.

Following halftime, the speedster again got wide open deep downfield, but Valdes-Scantling dropped what would've been a 53-yard touchdown, shifting momentum back for a stretch during the second half.

    Analysis: Valdes-Scantling played just as many snaps (41) as Allen Lazard and just six fewer than Davante Adams, but he was limited to decoy duty in Week 16 as the downfield passing game was impacted by snowy conditions. Valdes-Scantling has had his moments this season, and he racked up 85 yards and a score as recently as Week 14.

    Analysis: Valdes-Scantling was on the field for a shade under 80 percent of the plays the Packers ran in Week 12, but he was limited primarily to blocking and decoy duties and was held without a catch for the second time this season. His production has declined since Allen Lazard returned to action in Week 11, and with the Packers' offense just about at full speed, Valdes-Scantling figures to continue playing a complementary role.

    Valdes-Scantling (Achilles) is active for Sunday's game versus the Bears.

    Analysis: Valdes-Scantling appeared on the injury report as a limited participant Thursday and didn't practice at all Friday, the result of an Achilles concern. Despite the lack of reps to end the week, he'll be available to the Packers offense, but his workload remains to be seen. Davante Adams and Allen Lazard should serve as the team's top two wide receivers, with Valdes-Scantling, Equanimeous St. Brown (knee), Darrius Shepherd and Malik Taylor on hand for any reps that linger.

    Valdes-Scantling (Achilles) was held out of Friday's practice and is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Bears.

    Analysis: He was a midweek addition to the injury report, listed as limited in Thursday's practice. If Valdes-Scantling were to miss Sunday's game, Allen Lazard likely would take over as the No. 2 receiver, with Darrius Shepherd, Equanimeous St. Brown (knee) and Malik Taylor providing depth.

Still, he was one of three Packers receivers -- also, Allen Lazard (core) and Equanimeous St. Brown (knee) -- to be limited Thursday, while Davante Adams (ankle) didn't practice at all.

However, he also had the game-deciding error, fumbling after a short gain in overtime to put the Colts in field-goal position.

    Analysis: Valdes-Scantling played by far the second-most snaps among Packers wideouts and was targeted four times, but he ultimately only ended up with the lone touch on the ground. He should continue seeing the field plenty until Allen Lazard (abdomen) returns, and his next matchup will come against a Vikings team he recorded 96 yards and a score against Week 1.

The latter was able to seize the opportunity, posting a monstrous 6-146-1 line.

Valdes-Scantling was a distant second to Davante Adams in both receptions and receiving yards on the Packers, but he locked in a productive fantasy day courtesy of a pretty 45-yard scoring grab with 14 seconds remaining in the first half.

    Valdes-Scantling was targeted once and did not catch a pass in Sunday's victory over the Panthers.

    Analysis: It's not clear just how limited Valdes-Scantling has been by his ankle and knee injuries the last few weeks, but he only played 11 snaps Sunday. Since his big showing in Week 7, he has caught just one pass and has been shut out completely each of the last two weeks. A Week 11 bye will buy Valdes-Scantling some recovery time before the Packers' next game, but coming off back-to-back goose eggs, he's going to be tough to trust in Week 12 against a stingy 49ers defense.

While his Week 10 opponent (the Panthers) have allowed wide receivers to post just 7.1 yards per target this season, the unit has otherwise yielded 180 receiving yards per game to the position, making Valdes-Scantling a decent enough play Sunday.

    Analysis: Since going off for a season-best 133 receiving yards Week 7, Valdes-Scantling has hauled in just one of four targets for four yards over the last two games. He's been tending to ankle and knee injuries during that span, so there is a built-in excuse for his lack of production.

Granted, Davante Adams (toe) was back in action, and the Packers mustered just 184 yards of offense, but the output was disappointing, to say the least.
