Doubs slammed his head violently on the field after trying to dive for a potential touchdown catch in the end zone. He ended up dropping the ball and the pass was incomplete.

Doubs was taken to the medical tent by the Packers’ training staff, to be evaluated for a concussion. According to Steve Megargee, he came out of the injury tent and eventually made his way to the Green Bay locker room. And shortly after that, the Packers announced that Doubs was officially ruled out of the game with a concussion.
Green Bay running back Josh Jacobs was also dealing with cramping, according to the team. He was questionable to return to Sunday’s game. It wouldn’t matter, as the Packers absolutely steamrolled the 49ers, 38-10. Jacobs still finished with 26 carries for 106 rushing yards and three touchdowns.
Green Bay quarterback Jordan Love completed 13 of 23 passes for 163 passing yards, while tossing in two touchdowns and no interceptions. The Packers had a number of receivers step up, including Malik Heath, who hauled in a touchdown catch.
Green Bay rolled up 325 total yards of offense, including 169 rushing yards in the blowout. The 49ers also had three turnovers, which proved costly in the end.
