The Green Bay Packers made it to the playoffs, but they’ll have to play the No. 2 Dallas Cowboys in AT&T Stadium to advance. The Cowboys are 8-0 at home (and 6-2 against the spread), so it won’t be easy for the Packers to do much.
Questions remain about whether they’ll even have wide receiver Christian Watson this week, so let’s look at the most recent Christian Watson injury updates as we assess whether he will be playing.
Christian Watson Injury Update: Is Green Bay’s Star Playing This Week?
Christian Watson Injury Update
Watson has been dealing with a hamstring injury late this year. He hasn’t taken the field since early December, but he has managed to get back into the swing of things in practice. Watson was a limited participant in each session this week. That’s a slight upgrade from last week, when he logged limited practices on Wednesday and Thursday before failing to see the field on Friday and missing the game.
Still, it’s no sure thing that Watson comes back in time for this week. Head coach Matt LaFleur said Watson was likelier to play this week than he was last week, but added that Watson had a “legit” chance of playing. “A lot of it’s going to be on how he feels and where we’re at with him,” he told reporters.
