Everyone was rooting for him.

After a difficult week following his one-game suspension, Romeo Doubs announced his return with two touchdown catches in the Green Bay Packers' dominant win over the Arizona Cardinals. Jordan Love looked his way four times, with Doubs catching three passes for 49 yards and two scores.

His teammates surrounded him to celebrate in the end zone after his first score, showing their love for the third-year wide receiver.

Doubs and the Packers have put the suspension behind them. He is back, and it didn't take long to remind everyone why he is so important to this offense. After the game, Doubs shared some love back to the fans.

Doubs received a huge ovation from Packers fans as he left the field following the game, and he responded by holding up a heart.

It was a great moment to see after what has undoubtedly been a tough week for Doubs. Not only did he face the suspension and miss last week's win over the Los Angeles Rams, but he then faced challenging questions from reporters.

Doubs' teammates quickly rallied around him with public messages of support, including wide receiver Christian Watson, which we saw again in the touchdown celebrations.

The fans are also fully behind Doubs. Everybody inside Lambeau Field desperately wanted to see No. 87 find the end zone, and he delivered. He has been a touchdown machine since entering the league but surprisingly had none in the four games he had played this season. That all changed against the Cardinals.

After the game, Doubs said he is "just ready to move forward," and that's fair enough. He completed his suspension, answered questions about it, and has now made his return. It's time to put it in the past and focus on what's next.

And the Packers will need Doubs in the coming weeks. The NFC North is wide open as each team sits on at least four wins. In three of their next four games, the Packers will meet the Houston Texans, Detroit Lions, and Chicago Bears—three games that could define their season.

They will need their star players to step up, including Doubs. Hopefully, his two-touchdown performance against the Cardinals is a sign of what's to come in the weeks ahead.

The fans have Doubs' back, and it was great to see him share the love back as he left the field on Sunday.
