Christian Watson Dealing With Hamstring Injury

Christian Watson Dealing With Hamstring Injury

one year ago

Updating a previous report, Green Bay Packers wide receiver Christian Watson (hamstring) was held out of practice on Wednesday due to a hamstring injury. Fellow wideout Romeo Doubs (hamstring) also didn't practice, which suddenly leaves the Packers receiving corps very thin heading into their Week 1 regular season opener this Sunday against the Chicago Bears. The 24-year-old Watson is expected to be quarterback Jordan Love's top target this year, but fantasy managers may have to pivot away from him right away, depending on whether he's able to return to practice later this week. If one or both of Watson/Doubs are unavailable this Sunday, rookie receiver Jayden Reed and rookie tight end Luke Musgrave could be busy against Chicago. Keep an eye on the situation in the coming days.
