Doubs is regarded as one of the best red-zone threats of his team and will play a significant role in the Packers' offense this year. He has 101 catches for 1,099 yards and 11 scores in his first two seasons in the league.

Doubs and starting quarterback Jordan Love have gotten along well on the field in the past, and this season, it's expected that they will strengthen their bond further.

Regarding his connection with Jordan Love, he described it as,

"Definitely still developing," Doubs said on Tuesday via SI. "I wouldn’t just say it’s solidified, that my connection is at an all-time high with him. But in this league, it’s a progress league, so to say that my connection is there, it’d be wrong for me to say.”
