Romeo Doubs’ expresses regret for his suspension

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Romeo Doubs acknowledged the need for improved communication after a one-game suspension and absence from two practices last week.”I had some things going on mentally. I do not feel comfortable getting too deep into that. Just you guys, hearing it from me, there are some things I have going on for myself. I did my best communicating and I’m just thankful that I’m here right now, able to still play ball. … I absolutely wish I would’ve handled things differently.”

Doubs denied a report suggesting his frustration was due to his role in the offense and did not provide any further comment. “It’s a great offense here, got some ballplayers in our room. It’s much bigger than just me individually finding my role. In this league it’s just winning football games … [The situation’s] not as big as they think it is. I know narratives are always created and just hearing it from me, it wasn’t that big of a deal. I’d say there was some things going on off the field. As far as just the organization and the (coaching) staff, the players, there’s nothing going on within that area. So I just want to make myself clear there.”
