Packers WR Christian Watson (hip) did not practice again on Thursday ahead of Week 17 vs. the Vikings. It's not looking good for the rookie's availability on Sunday. Limited participation on Friday would inspire some hope at a minimum. Check back again tomorrow for updates.
Packers WR Christian Watson (hip) did not practice on Wednesday. The rookie wideout's availability for Week 17 vs. the Vikings is too soon to call as of now. Check back later for additional information.
Packers HC Mike LaFleur labeled WR Christian Watson "day-to-day" with the hip injury he suffered in Sunday's win over the Dolphins. It sounds like Watson dodged a significant injury, but his availability for this weekend's game vs. the Vikings is unclear. We'll monitor the rookie's practice participation throughout the week.
Packers QB Aaron Rodgers threw for 238 yards and 1 TD on 24-of-38 passing in Sunday's win over the Dolphins. His 13.3 fantasy points (by ESPN scoring) is good for 13th among QBs on the week, at least, with 3 games left to go. Rodgers hit TE Marcedes Lewis for his only score and threw 1 INT. Rodgers figures to land in mid-QB2 range for a Week 17 matchup with the Vikings. Minnesota sits top-10 as a QB-scoring matchup but hasn't been as friendly to the position as the Dolphins have. WR Allen Lazard led the Packers with 11 targets at Miami, catching 5 for 61 yards. WR Christian Watson caught a team-high 6 passes before leaving with a hip injury.
Packers WR Christian Watson suffered a hip injury in Sunday's game at Miami. He's questionable to return. We'll keep an eye out for updates.
Packers WR Romeo Doubs performed well in Sunday's win vs. the Rams, hauling in all 5 of his targets for 55 yards. Teammate Christian Watson ended the contest with 4 catches on 6 targets for 46 yards. Watson almost had a TD in the game, but ultimately fell short much to the dismay of fantasy managers whose playoff hopes hinged on his 4-game scoring streak continuing. Veteran Allen Lazard also disappointed, only recording 1 catch on 2 targets for 7 yards. Still, those who survived and advanced should feel good about these Packers WRs in Week 16. The Dolphins' defense ranks as the 8th-best matchup for opposing WRs in adjusted fantasy points allowed this season.
Packers WR Christian Watson scored another 2 TDs in Sunday's win at Chicago. First came a 14-yard TD reception late in the 2nd quarter, 1 of just 3 catches Watson made for the day for 48 yards. His 6 targets tied WR Allen Lazard for the team lead. Watson added a 46-yard TD run in the 2nd half, his only rushing attempt for the game. It was his 2nd rushing score of the year, among just 5 total carries. Watson now has 8 total TDs over the past 4 games, on just 17 total touches. Although he's bound for some regression on that TD rate, the speedy rookie has increased his role in the offense and will be tough to keep out of fantasy football lineups after the Week 14 bye.
Packers WR Romeo Doubs (ankle) is inactive for today’s game vs. the Bears. The rookie returned to practice this week and should be back for Week 14. Christian Watson, Allen Lazard and Randall Cobb will again operate as Green Bay’s top 3 WRs today.
Packers WR Romeo Doubs (ankle) was limited in practice all week and is listed as questionable for Sunday’s game vs. the Bears. We’ll see if the rookie can make it back for that one after going down in Week 9, but he shouldn’t be in your fantasy plans. Christian Watson, Allen Lazard and Randall Cobb should remain locked in as Green Bay’s top 3 WRs this week.
Packers rookie WR Christian Watson scored for the 3rd straight game, delivering a 63-yard catch-and-run TD in Sunday night's loss to the Eagles. That powered a 4-110-1 receiving line on a team-leading 6 targets. Green Bay threw just 25 passes in a game that saw QB Aaron Rodgers leave early, so Watson accounted for a 24% share. RB Aaron Jones, RB AJ Dillon and WR Randall Cobb tied for 2nd with 4 targets apiece. Jones and Cobb caught the team's other 2 TD passes. WR Allen Lazard contributed just 2 receptions for 24 yards among 3 targets. TE Robert Tonyan caught all 3 of his targets for 20 yards.
Packers WR Romeo Doubs (ankle) is out for Sunday night’s game vs. the Eagles. Allen Lazard, Christian Watson and Randall Cobb will continue operating as Green Bay’s top 3 WRs.
Packers WR Romeo Doubs (ankle) is out for Thursday night's game vs. the Titans. He's avoided IR, so we'll see if the rookie can make it back from his high-ankle sprain for Week 12. Allen Lazard and Christian Watson will again operate as Green Bay's top 2 WRs tomorrow.
Packers rookie WR Christian Watson enjoyed a huge Sunday, scoring 3 times in the OT win over Dallas. Watson also led the team in targets (8), receptions (4) and receiving yards (107). The rookie ran just 3 fewer routes than team-leader WR Allen Lazard; 7 more than anyone else on the team. That sets Watson up for a nice role going forward. We'll see if the target share (40% against the Cowboys) stays up.
Packers WRs Sammy Watkins (knee) and Christian Watson (concussion) are not listed on the final Week 10 injury report. They figure to operate as Green Bay’s #2 and #3 WRs vs. Dallas this weekend with WR Romeo Doubs (ankle) sidelined.
Packers WR Sammy Watkins (knee) did not practice on Wednesday. WR Christian Watson (concussion) was a full participant, so he'll be available for this weekend's game vs. the Cowboys. Green Bay will be without WR Romeo Doubs (ankle) for that one. WR Allen Lazard is the only bankable fantasy play in this struggling passing game.
Packers WR Christian Watson did not sustain a concussion in Sunday's loss to the Lions, HC Matt LaFleur said. Watson took a hit to the chest, lost his breath but was held out only as a precaution after he was concussed in Week 8 in Buffalo, LaFleur explained. Watson has cleared concussion protocol already and will be available for this weekend's game vs. the Cowboys.
Packers WR Christian Watson left in the 2nd half of Sunday's game vs. the Lions to be checked for a concussion. The rookie was just concussed in last week's loss to Buffalo. Stay tuned for an update.
Packers WR Allen Lazard (shoulder) is active for today’s game vs. the Lions. He comes with elevated risk playing through that shoulder injury, but there’s plenty of upside against this bad Detroit secondary. Packers WR Christian Watson (concussion) is also active. He can’t be trusted in Week 9 fantasy lineups but does add some downside to WR Romeo Doubs. Watson appeared to be playing ahead of Doubs before exiting early last week.
