Christian Watson A Risky Option Against Division Rival

Christian Watson A Risky Option Against Division Rival

12 months ago

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Christian Watson will go on the road to take on the Detroit Lions on Thanksgiving in Week 12. The second-year receiver was finally able to find the end zone last weekend but still caught just two passes for a gain of just 21 yards. Watson has not cleared 40 yards gained since Week 5 and has done so just once all year. Jayden Reed (chest) and Romeo Doubs have been the top targets for quarterback Jordan Love, and the ball is being spread around the offense so much that Watson is struggling to produce for fantasy managers every week, no matter the matchup. Detroit has struggled to stop opposing passing attacks as of late and has allowed the 10th-most fantasy points per game to wide receivers. Even with the great matchup, Watson can be considered nothing more than a risky flex option in Week 12.
