The Green Bay Packers walked into Soldier Field on Saturday night knowing the margin for error was thin. For most of the game, Romeo Doubs was one of the reasons Green Bay looked ready to escape Chicago with a division win. The pro player stretched the field, finished tough catches, and delivered a momentum-shifting touchdown that briefly silenced the crowd.
The ending unraveled. But Doubs’ night deserves more than a single mistake. Green Bay led late after Cairo Santos’ field goal cut the deficit to seven with under two minutes left. Chicago rolled the dice with an onside kick. The ball bounced awkwardly, Doubs took his eyes off it for a split second, and Bears cornerback Josh Blackwell recovered. From there, the game flipped. Caleb Williams drove the Bears downfield, found Jahdae Walker for the tying score, and Chicago eventually won 22-16 in overtime on DJ Moore’s walk-off touchdown.
That sequence will be replayed. What came before it matters too.
Romeo Doubs’ Impact Stood Out long Before the Onside Kick
Doubs was one of Green Bay’s most consistent offensive weapons all night. In the clash, his effort was evident: five grabs, 84 yards, and one score off six looks, yet he kept finding space versus Chicago’s backline. A sharp 33-yard strike stood out: crisp release, flawless route, transforming a simple pass into a pivotal tally.
That catch pushed the Packers’ lead into double digits and forced the Bears to chase points. It also highlighted Doubs’ value in contested situations and his level of trust with the quarterback. Even with Jordan Love sidelined after a brutal hit, Doubs stayed involved and adjusted quickly to Malik Willis under center.
Chicago began shifting coverage toward Doubs in the second half of the year. That attention opened space for other receivers and helped Green Bay control tempo for stretches. Those details do not appear on the final scoreboard, but coaches take note of them.
According to Athletic, after the loss, Doubs, like a true leader, took the blame. He owned the moment.
“S***, I missed it. That’s just this game, bro. I rep this s*** all week, and yeah, bro, somebody has to be responsible, and I’m willing to take on 1000% of it.”
Veterans pointed to his preparation during the week and his willingness to step forward publicly. The Packers did not lose faith in Doubs because of one play. If anything, his accountability reinforced why he remains a core piece of the offense.
Green Bay is still fighting for a spot in the NFC North, and opportunities remain. Doubs’ role is not shrinking. If anything, his usage is trending up as defenses are forced to respect his downfield presence.
