numberFire
Christian Watson (shoulder) limited for Packers Monday

What it means:

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Christian Watson (shoulder) is listed as a limited participant on Monday's estimated practice report for Week 12 against the Detroit Lions on Thanksgiving. Watson played through his shoulder issue in Sunday's win over the Los Angeles Chargers and caught 2 passes on 4 targets for 21 yards and his first touchdown of the season. He hasn't caught more than 3 passes in any game and there isn't any reason to expect that to change on Thursday in Detroit. Watson is averaging 6.5 FanDuel points across seven games this season, with 16 catches for 257 yards and 2 touchdowns on 37 targets. His elite average depth of target (15.8 yards) is completely offset by Watson's 37.8 percent catch rate. The Lions are ranked 21st in FanDuel points allowed per game to wide receivers this season.
