Packers Coach LaFleur Says It's Too Early to Determine if Jayden Reed Will Play Again in 2026

Green Bay Packers head coach Matt LaFleur stated on Tuesday that it is 'way too early' to determine whether wide receiver Jayden Reed will return to play for the remainder of the 2026 season. Reed, who suffered a neck injury during the second play of the Packers' overtime win against the New York Jets on Sunday, has returned to Green Bay and is undergoing a series of medical tests. While Reed initially reported having movement in all extremities and posted a social media update saying he was 'doing much better,' the team remains uncertain about his long-term availability. The injury has forced the Packers to adjust their receiving rotation, with Skyy Moore and Bo Melton expected to see increased opportunities. Reed, who signed a three-year, $50 million contract extension this offseason, had previously missed significant time in 2025 due to a broken collarbone and foot surgery.

Packers lock in Jayden Reed on 3-year, $50.25M extension ahead of Day 2
