The defending Super Bowl champs have reunited with Kareem Hunt since Pacheco broke his leg in the Week 2 victory over the\u00a0Cincinnati Bengals.<\/p>\n<p>But the Chiefs are yet to add to their receiving corp after Rice hurt his knee in\u00a0a collision with Mahomes. Kansas City was quickly told it would not be a serious player in the\u00a0Davante Adams sweepstakes\u00a0following the\u00a0Las Vegas Raiders\u00a0star wideout&#8217;s recent trade request.<\/p>\n<p>There&#8217;s another disgruntled NFL wideout who could fill in for Rice, though. After\u00a0being suspended\u00a0for skipping back-to-back practice sessions, Doubs will be a prime candidate to alleviate Chiefs head coach Andy Reid&#8217;s headache caused by the flurry of injuries, according to\u00a0CBS Sports&#8217; Tyler Sullivan.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;You had to see this coming, right?&#8221; Sullivan wrote on Saturday. &#8220;Whenever a player of Doubs\u2019 caliber or higher could be on the market, it won\u2019t be long before the Chiefs are mentioned as a possible landing spot.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The club certainly could use another pass catcher in the aftermath of wideout Rashee Rice suffering a knee injury that has now landed him on injured reserve and possibly could sideline him for the entire season. Doubs could quickly become a top target for Patrick Mahomes in a wide receiver room that currently is headlined by rookie Xavier Worthy, Justin Watson, and JuJu Smith-Schuster.&#8221;<\/p>\n<div class=\"image-container\" data-redesign-embed=\"true\">\n<figure class=\"image--embedded\" data-orientation=\"landscape\" data-tmdatatrack-articleid=\"732749\" data-tmdatatrack=\"inline-widget\">\n<div class=\"logo-placeholder\"><\/div>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"i-amphtml-fill-content i-amphtml-replaced-content\" src=\"https:\/\/i2-prod.themirror.com\/incoming\/article732749.ece\/ALTERNATES\/s615b\/1_Minnesota-Vikings-v-Green-Bay-Packers.jpg\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1536px) 660px, 100vw\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i2-prod.themirror.com\/incoming\/article732749.ece\/ALTERNATES\/s458b\/1_Minnesota-Vikings-v-Green-Bay-Packers.jpg 458w, https:\/\/i2-prod.themirror.com\/incoming\/article732749.ece\/ALTERNATES\/s615b\/1_Minnesota-Vikings-v-Green-Bay-Packers.jpg 615w, https:\/\/i2-prod.themirror.com\/incoming\/article732749.ece\/ALTERNATES\/s1200e\/1_Minnesota-Vikings-v-Green-Bay-Packers.jpg 1200w\" alt=\"\" data-tmdatatrack=\"inline-widget\" data-tmdatatrack-articleid=\"732749\" \/><\/figure>\n<p><span class=\"credit\">(\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"camera\">Image:<\/div>\n<p><span class=\"credit\">Getty Images)<\/span><\/div>\n<p>Doubs put up 169 receiving yards on 12 catches through the first four weeks of the 2024 campaign. Frustrated with his role, he was a no-show at Green Bay&#8217;s practice facility on Thursday and Friday, prompting the Packers to check in on the wideout due to &#8220;worries&#8221; over his well-being.<\/p>\n<p>As it turned out the former fourth-round pick went on a strike, the team for Sunday&#8217;s matchup with the\u00a0Los Angeles Rams. \u201cUnfortunately, we had to make the difficult decision to suspend Romeo for this week&#8217;s game,\u201d Packers general manager Brian Gutekunst said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHis decisions and actions during the week negatively impacted the team and required us to take this action.
