Packers suffered a huge blow as their wide receiver, Jayden Reed, left the ‘Thursday Night Football’ game following a shoulder injury.
The game is just minutes into the first quarter, and they may be down their top wide receiver from a year ago.
Reed – who was dealing with a foot injury during practice this week – caught what would have been a 39-yard touchdown pass from Jordan Love, however, doing so, he landed hard on his right shoulder on the tackle by Commanders defensive back Quan Martin.
He walked off on his own, holding his right arm, and then went down again once on the sideline. After a brief visit to the sideline medical tent.
He was then headed to the training room with a towel over his head. His return is now doubtful, the Packers report.
