Christian Watson Limited in Practice, Expects to Play Sunday
Green Bay Packers wide receiver Christian Watson (knee, hamstring) was limited in practice on Thursday, but he said he's "just sore" and still considers himself in the "ramp-up stage" of his return from a torn ACL he suffered in last year's regular-season finale, according to Rob Demovsky of ESPN. When asked if he expects to play on Sunday against the New York Giants, Watson said, "Oh yeah." The 26-year-old former second-rounder in 2022 made his season debut in Week 8 and has caught eight of his 12 targets for 188 yards and no touchdowns in his first three games. He started by playing only 56% of the offensive snaps in Week 8, but he has slowly seen more action and saw an 82% snap share in the Monday night loss to the Philadelphia Eagles. Watson is a bit of a boom/bust fantasy asset, but he's averaging a healthy 23.5 yards per catch as a big-play guy, and he could certainly boom this weekend against the G-Men.
