GBPWR • #9

Christian Watson caught 3-of-5 targets for 13 yards and a touchdown in the Packers’ Week 1 loss to the Eagles.

Watson logged an underwhelming target share of just 14 percent in this game but was given an absurd number of high-value looks. Three of his five targets came in the end zone, one of which resulted in a two-yard score while the other two fell incomplete. Watson even had a fourth end-zone look, also incomplete, that was negated by a penalty. The bad news is that Jordan Love left this game late with a lower-body injury. If he misses any time, the Packers will be stuck with either Malik Willis or Sean Clifford under center. An end zone role is only good if the offense is making trips to the paint. Watson’s fantasy status is up in the air until we learn more about Love’s injury.
