Christian Watson News
Friday, November 6, 12:14 PM
Green Bay Packers wide receiver Christian Watson (ribs) could face a challenging matchup against New England cornerback Christian Gonzalez on Sunday. The Patriots have allowed the 10th-most PPR fantasy points to opposing wide receivers this season, although Gonzalez has been particularly difficult to beat in coverage. Watson has drawn at least eight targets in seven of eight games, remaining a key downfield weapon for Jordan Love. He suffered a broken rib against Carolina last week but returned to finish the game. Watson was limited in practice throughout the week, but carries no injury designation for Sunday. RotoBaller ranks him WR13 for Week 9, making him a strong WR2 with WR1 upside despite the difficult individual matchup.

George Pickens News
Friday, November 6, 10:32 AM
Dallas Cowboys wide receiver George Pickens (hamstring) is questionable for Sunday's Week 9 matchup against the Indianapolis Colts after being limited in practice throughout the week. Head coach Brian Schottenheimer said Friday that he remains hopeful Pickens will play, although the receiver has yet to practice fully while managing the injury. Pickens played just 57% of Dallas' offensive snaps in last week's loss to the Arizona Cardinals, catching two of four targets for 48 yards. He has recorded 39 receptions for 533 yards and two touchdowns through eight games, ranking second on the team in receiving yardage behind CeeDee Lamb. Ryan Flournoy has also become a consistent contributor, catching 30 passes for 342 yards this season. Pickens remains a fantasy WR2 if active, but his reduced playing time last week introduces some uncertainty about how heavily Dallas will use him against Indianapolis.
