Christian Watson (hamstring) remains on track for Packers' Wild Card Game
Green Bay Packers wide receiver Christian Watson (hamstring) practiced on Thursday for the Wild Card Round versus the Dallas Cowboys.
What It Means:
Watson and Romeo Doubs (chest) were both limited participants for a second straight day. However, Watson was downgraded to a non-participant last Friday and missed a fifth straight game, so his status is less certain heading into the weekend. Jayden Reed, Dontayvion Wicks, Bo Melton, and Malik Heath will be available to help fill in if Watson remains out.
numberFire's models project Watson for 8.1 FanDuel points in the Wild Card Round if Watson is active, with 5.6 targets, 3.2 receptions, and 43.5 yards. The Cowboys allowed the fifth-fewest FanDuel points to wide receivers this season and their pass defense finished fifth-best in our opponent-adjusted efficiency rankings.
