Christian Watson

NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero reports Christian Watson (knee) is unlikely to play in Week 17 against the Vikings.

Watson didn’t practice at all this week, so the news isn’t much of a surprise. Per head coach Matt LaFleur, Watson is dealing with a bone bruise in his knee. It won’t sideline him for long, but Green Bay is eying a deep playoff run, so holding Watson out for a week or two is likely for the best. Dontayvion Wicks will take his spot in the lineup this week. Wicks will be a boom/bust WR4 once Watson is ruled out.
