Quez Watkins

The Steelers re-signed Quez Watkins to their practice squad.

Fantasy Impact

Watkins had been released by Pittsburgh on Tuesday. He'll remain in a depth role at wide receiver for the Steelers.

Veteran WR Quez Watkins has been released by the Pittsburgh Steelers.

Fantasy Impact

The Steelers are thin at WR, and Watkins' release comes as a bit of a surprise. It's possible Pittsburgh is eyeing adding another receiver, with WRs George Pickens, Roman Wilson, Van Jefferson and Calvin Austin III in tow to be in the team's WR rotation. Watkins will likely land somewhere before the season's start.

Quez Watkins has signed with the Steelers.

Fantasy Impact

Watkins spent the first four seasons of his career with the Eagles, catching 98 combined passes in a limited role. He'll be a depth receiver for Pittsburgh.

Quez Watkins did not catch his lone target in the Eagles' 20-17 loss against the Seahawks.

Fantasy Impact

The lone target Watkins saw came on a deep ball in the end zone that was picked off by Julian Love. He remains off the fantasy radar.

The Philadelphia Eagles have activated WR Quez Watkins (hamstring) to their 53-man roster ahead of Week 12.

Fantasy Impact

The Eagles have been looking desperately for a WR3 option all season, resorting to signing Julio Jones while Watkins has dealt with a nagging hamstring that has hindered him and kept him out for the majority of the season. Watkins won't be much of a player to watch for fantasy purposes, but "Fast Batman" provides Philly with another receiving option to help when teams focus on the Eagles' outside threats, and he can threaten with his own speed. He is still questionable to play.
