JUST IN: Packers Confirm Another Play Maker With A Devastating Season Ending Injury.

Packers wide receiver was carted off the field during today’s loss to the Vikings, and it appears he may have suffered a high ankle sprain, according to Jordan Schultz from Bleacher Report. Watson, in his third year, had his best season as a rookie second-round pick, leading the team with seven touchdown receptions and finishing second with 611 receiving yards. That year, he played alongside Aaron Rodgers, who had a tough season following the trade of Davante Adams.

In his second season, Watson’s production dipped as Jordan Love became the quarterback, recording just 28 receptions for 422 yards and five touchdowns. So far this season, he has five catches for 80 yards and a touchdown, continuing in a WR3/4 role.

If Watson misses time, the Packers will rely on Romeo Doubs, Jayden Reed, and Dontayvion Wicks, with Bo Melton potentially stepping up as the fourth receiver. High ankle sprains have been common this season, with varying recovery times depending on severity. Watson will undergo tests to determine the full extent of the injury, but there’s a possibility he could miss several games.
