Fantasy Football Injury Updates
Christian Watson (knee) feared to have torn ACL
Christian Watson (knee) is feared to have torn his ACL against the Bears on Sunday.
Fantasy Impact
It’s a tough blow to the talented pass catcher. It looked like he finally got past the many injuries that had been nagging him since the start of his career. Sadly though, a lengthy recovery process looms over Watson, and it’s likely we won’t see him return to the Packers lineup until near the end of 2025. He ends the 2024 NFL season with 29 receptions for 620 yards, a ridiculous 21.4 yards per reception, and two scores.

Jordan Love (elbow) expected to play in Wild Card Round
Packers QB Jordan Love (elbow) is expected to play in the Wild Card Round against the Eagles.
Fantasy Impact
Love was removed from the game with a right elbow injury as a precaution, per head coach Matt LaFleur. His status will be worth monitoring throughout the week, but there does not appear to be a concern about his status for the first round of the playoffs.
