Green Bay Packers’ wide receiver corps and that competition between each player is among the biggest headlines for them heading into the new season. That battle will become fierce once Christian Watson is back in the line up.

The WR room currently has Jayden Reed, their best player stat-wise), 23rd pick Matthew Golden, another rookie Savion Williams, Romeo Doubs, new acquisition and two-time Super Bowl winner Mecole Hardman Jr., Dontavion Wicks, and Malik Heath.

Their strength is yet to be determined with Watson still out of the team after undergoing surgery for his torn ankle before the postseason.

He has been showing great signs of progress through public appearances, leaving speculations that he might return earlier than expected. Previous reports said he could only be back by November.

Christian Watson is not rushing anything

Watson is not rushing anything though. He is take extra precaution and leaving it his health staff. The good takeaway is that he is leveling up his football activities
“I’ve been doing cutting stuff already, some route stuff already,” Watson said on Wednesday.

“I’m letting the training staff and the strength staff tell me what I got that day. I’m trying not to look too far ahead because then I’m going to want to push for more and more, just how my mind works.”

He previously gave a hint on how many games he could play this season.

“I hope it’s all of them, but I’ve got to take it as it is. Whether it’s 15 games or five games, I feel like as long as I’m able to go out there and just prove that I am what I was before the injury and be me, that the rest is going to take care of itself,” he said last week as he talked about his mindset coming off an injury.

“That’s been my mentality. I’ve just got to get back to being me and the rest will take care of itself.”
