Christian Watson - Page 13 - NFL News, Rumors, & Updates

Out with hamstring injury Watson (hamstring) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Jets, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Watson worked as the No. 4 receiver and kick returner the week before, playing 18 snaps on offense and seeing one target, one carry and two kick returns. He left with a hamstring injury in the third quarter, having previously missed Week 3 with a hammy issue. The rookie didn't practice at all this week and could miss time beyond Sunday.

Another DNP on Thursday Watson (hamstring) was a non-participant at practice Thursday.

Impact Watson sustained a right hamstring injury this past Sunday against the Giants in London and has yet to get back on the practice field. The Packers have one more session on the docket this week before they likely hand the rookie second-round pick a designation for Sunday's contest versus the Jets.

No practice Wednesday Watson (hamstring) didn't practice Wednesday, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.

Impact Watson made an early departure from the Packers' Week 5 loss to the Giants in London, the result of an injured right hamstring. He's already missed one game this season due to a hamstring issue (Week 3 at Tampa Bay), but it's unclear if he's in danger of sitting out Sunday against the Jets. Ultimately, Watson may have to get back on the field in some capacity Thursday and/or Friday to put himself in a position to play this weekend.

Leaves with hamstring injury Watson exited in the third quarter of Sunday's game against the Giants in London with a right hamstring injury and is questionable to return.

Impact Per Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com, Watson was grabbing at his right leg and was spotted limping off the field when he apparently suffered the injury while running a route. Before his departure, Watson had returned two kickoffs for 35 yards, ran once for minus-3 yards and recorded a one-yard reception on his lone target.

Green Bay Packers winning unimpressively, Cowherd says

Finds paydirt for first time Watson caught one pass for eight yards and had one carry for 15 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 27-24 overtime victory over the Patriots.

Impact After missing Week 3 with a hamstring injury, Watson returned to action Sunday and played 18 snaps, the fourth most among Packers receivers. He garnered three targets and did not do much in the passing game, but he did put his speed on display on a second quarter jet sweep that netted him his first career score. Watson is not handling a key role in the offense, but he has shown a couple glimpses of the potential that made him a second-round draft pick back in April.

Logs full practice Thursday Watson (hamstring) practiced in full Thursday.

Impact Prior to sitting out Week 3 at Tampa Bay, Watson logged just one capped session due to a hamstring issue. This time around, he followed up a limited practice Wednesday with all activity one day later, setting him up to return to action Sunday versus the Patriots. With Sammy Watkins (hamstring) on injured reserve, Watson likely is the Packers' top vertical threat in the passing game for quarterback Aaron Rodgers.

Limited again Wednesday Watson (hamstring) was a limited participant at Wednesday's practice, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.

Impact Prior to being inactive this past Sunday at Tampa Bay, Watson sandwiched limited sessions around a missed practice last Thursday, so another capped session to begin this week isn't exactly a sign that a return to action is imminent. He'll have two more chances to bump up to all activity before the weekend, at which point the Packers may clear up his status for Sunday's game against the Patriots.

SEPTEMBER 28, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Takes seat Sunday Watson (hamstring) is listed as inactive Sunday in Tampa Bay, Mike Spofford of the Packers' official site reports.

Impact Watson entered the weekend with a questionable designation after being capped to one limited session due to a hamstring injury. He'll join Sammy Watkins (hamstring, IR) on the sideline, meaning the Packers' top trio at wide receiver Sunday will be Allen Lazard, Randall Cobb (illness) and Romeo Doubs. Watson, a rookie second-round pick, will aim to get healthy for a Week 4 matchup with the Patriots on Sunday, Oct. 2.

SEPTEMBER 25, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Not expected to play Sunday Watson (hamstring) is not expected to suit up for Sunday's game against Tampa Bay, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

Impact The Packers will already be without Sammy Watkins (hamstring), who landed on IR on Saturday, though veteran Randall Cobb (illness) is expected to play Sunday. If Watson is indeed ruled inactive ahead of Sunday's 4:25 p.m. ET kickoff, it will fall to Allen Lazard, Romeo Doubs and potentially Cobb to act as Green Bay's clear top wideouts.

SEPTEMBER 25, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Questionable for Week 3 Watson (hamstring) is listed as questionable for Sunday's contest in Tampa Bay, Wes Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site reports.

Impact Watson managed just one limited session this week while tending to a hamstring injury, but he has a chance to suit up Sunday, unlike Sammy Watkins (hamstring), who has been ruled out. As for the rest of Green Bay's receiving corps, Allen Lazard (ankle) has been cleared to play, while Randall Cobb (illness) is questionable after missing practice Wednesday through Friday. If one or both of Cobb and Watson are limited or out this weekend, Romeo Doubs will have a path to additional work.

SEPTEMBER 23, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Back at practice Friday Watson (hamstring) returned to practice Friday, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.

Impact Green Bay got Watson and Allen Lazard (ankle) back from their respective injuries, but not Sammy Watkins (hamstring) or Randall Cobb (illness). If Watkins and Cobb are unable to play Sunday against the Buccaneers, Watson and fellow rookie Romeo Doubs would both be in line for prominent roles alongside Lazard.

SEPTEMBER 23, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Not practicing Thursday Watson (hamstring) didn't practice Thursday, Tom Silverstein of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

Impact The same applies to fellow wideouts Allen Lazard (ankle) and Sammy Watkins (hamstring). All three were limited during Wednesday's practice in pads, so it's possible that their non-participation Thursday is maintenance-related. Added context with regard to the health of the Packers' WR corps will arrive Friday upon the release of the team's final injury report ahead of Sunday's game against the Buccaneers.

SEPTEMBER 22, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Limited by hamstring Wednesday Watson was a limited practice participant Wednesday due to a hamstring injury.

Impact Fellow wideouts Allen Lazard (ankle) and Sammy Watkins (hamstring) were also limited participants, while Randall Cobb was absent due to an illness. Through two games as pro, Watson has been targeted seven times, gathering in five of those passes for 43 yards. If any of Lazard, Watkins or Cobb are sidelined Sunday at Tampa Bay, Watson would be in line for an elevated snap count, assuming he overcomes his own injury concern.
