Green Bay Packers wide receiver Christian Watson led the Packers in receptions as they edged the Jaguars in Jacksonville 30-27 in Week 8. Watson tied for the team lead in targets on the day with a six-target effort, bringing in a team-leading four receptions for 39 yards on the afternoon. All six of Watson's targets came with Jordan Love at quarterback, who left in the third quarter with a groin injury. Watson put forth a solid effort, but with the injury to Love and the bevy of pass-catchers involved each week in Green Bay, there's a lot of competition for targets and fantasy point-scoring opportunities. Watson is a boom-or-bust flex option for fantasy managers when the Packers host the Detroit Lions in Week 9.

New York Jets wide receiver Garrett Wilson caught five of his eight targets for 113 yards in a 25-22 loss to the New England Patriots in Week 8. Wilson led the Jets in all receiving categories while averaging a season-high 22.6 yards per catch in the close loss to the Patriots. The veteran wideout has been playing well of late as this goes into the books as his third 100-yard receiving game over his past four contests. Wilson will be a low-end WR1 in fantasy heading into Week 9's Thursday night game against the Houston Texans.
