The New England Patriots added Romeo Doubs to their offense this offseason, and he will get a chance to play his former team, the Green Bay Packers, this season.
Doubs was drafted by the Packers in 2022 and was one of their best receivers for four seasons. He played with both Aaron Rodgers and Jordan Love and will now get an opportunity to play with Drake Maye. The Patriots signed him to a four-year deal worth up to $80 million this offseason, and he was asked if he had the Packers game circled ahead of the schedule release.
"Nah man," Doubs answered on Tuesday. "Green Bay took care of me. There's no reason for me to have that level of pressure against them. My career started there. They taught me the foundation of football, how football works, situational football and just understanding complementary football and just the overall game in general. They showed me the ropes in that area. I do know we play them this year, but it's not even like that."

Doubs' answer is very on brand for the type of player he is. He lets his play do most of the talking for him and is a man of few words. The Packers made major changes to their wide receiver room this offseason, and that included moving on from Doubs. He seems grateful for his time with the Packers.
The Packers had Doubs, Christian Watson, Jayden Reed, Dontayvion Wicks, Malik Heath, Bo Melton, Matthew Golden and Savion Williams going into last season. Five of those guys were capable of being every-down players and commanding a majority of targets. Something had to change, and the Packers decided to let Doubs walk and trade Wicks.
Watson, Reed and Golden seem to be the Packers' preferred group of receivers now. Meanwhile, Doubs will have a chance to be a focal point in the Patriots' passing game.
