Christian Watson Agrees to One-Year Contract Extension
Christian Watson (knee) has agreed to a one-year, $13.25 million contract extension, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports. The deal will keep Watson in Green Bay through 2026. Watson joined the Packers as a second-round pick from North Dakota State in 2022 and has since averaged around 13 games, 33 catches, 551 yards, and five touchdowns per season. After the 6-foot-4, 208-pound deep threat tore his right ACL in Week 18 last year, he opened this season on the Reserve/Physically Unable to Perform list. Watson will miss at least the Packers' first four games as a result. When he does return, Watson will be part of a crowded group of targets for quarterback Jordan Love. Even without Watson, the Packers still boast Romeo Doubs, first-round rookie Matthew Golden, Jayden Reed, and Dontayvion Wicks as their top four WRs. They also have a strong pass-catching tight end in Tucker Kraft.
