Latest

Doubs left the Week 6 win over the Jets with a shoulder injury after a 42-yard touchdown catch and did not return. The Patriots placed him on injured reserve Monday, Oct. 19, ruling him out at least four games, per NBC Sports and the team’s official site.

He had no injury designations earlier this season, and A.J. Brown is back off injured reserve from his own high-ankle sprain.

Doubs’ first two games with New England were volatile: zero catches on three targets in Week 1, per CBS Sports, then three catches for 96 yards, including a 63-yarder, in Week 2, per Patriots.com’s Evan Lazar.

Fantasy Action: Move Doubs to an IR slot; DeMario Douglas is the Patriots receiver to add in his place.
