Packers receiver Jayden Reed broke his collarbone on a play that didn’t count during the opening drive of Thursday’s 27-18 win against the Washington Commanders at Lambeau Field.
“He’s going to miss a lot of time,” coach Matt LaFleur said. “We’ll see how fast he can recover and heal and certainly I would expect him back at some point this season, but obviously it’s a big blow to us. He’s a guy who’s a catalyst for our offense and our football team, quite frankly, the energy he brings and he’s a dog.”
Reed was injured after he stretched out to catch what would have been a 39-yard touchdown if it hadn’t been wiped out because of a holding penalty on right tackle Anthony Belton.
