Who Should I Start? Christian Watson or Cody White

Tuesday, October 28, 1:27 PM

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Christian Watson returned to the Packers' lineup in Week 8 following an ACL injury that ended his 2024 season in Week 18. Watson was an immediate focal point of the offense in his 2025 debut, bringing in all four of his targets for 85 yards. The big question: can Watson be a fantasy-relevant player this season? While it was great to see Watson back and receive immediate involvement in the passing game, he's still behind Tucker Kraft, Romeo Doubs, and Josh Jacobs in the pecking order on offense. Watson's game has always been as a vertical receiver, and for fantasy, those types of players are boom-or-bust in nature. That makes it hard to start him in most weeks, even with bye weeks in full swing. For the Packers' Week 9 matchup against the Panthers, consider Watson a low-end flex play.

Las Vegas Raiders left guard Cody Whitehair (ankle) exited Sunday's game against the Cincinnati Bengals and did not return. The Raiders suffered numerous offensive line injuries in Week 9, leading to reduced protection in front of Gardner Minshew II and Alexander Mattison. Dylan Parham entered the game at right guard and Jordan Meredith shifted over to replace Whitehair at left guard.
