Christian Watson News
Sunday, October 11, 2:38 PM
Green Bay Packers wide receiver Christian Watson was seemingly unstoppable during Sunday's win over the Chicago Bears. The veteran wideout got the fun started early with a 42-yard touchdown grab on the opening drive. He found the end zone again on a 53-yard grab during the first drive of the second half. Watson hauled in six of his eight targets for 143 yards and two touchdowns in the victory over Chicago. He tied Matthew Golden for the team-high in receptions and held the team-high with his 143 receiving yards, which was five yards shy of his career-high. Watson has been a big-time playmaker for the Packers this season, and he'll get a juicy matchup against the Dallas Cowboys next week.

Jalen Coker News
Tuesday, October 13, 10:32 AM
Carolina Panthers wide receiver Jalen Coker (quadriceps) was seen on the practice field on Tuesday, according to Alex Zietlow of The Charlotte Observer. Head coach Dave Canales said that Coker is "on track" to play in Week 6 on the road against the Philadelphia Eagles, with the team coming off their bye week. The 24-year-old missed the Week 4 win over the Detroit Lions on Sunday Night Football, but the week off has treated him well, and he looks ready to return against Philly this weekend. Coker could be limited in practice early in the week, but the expectation is that he will suit up against the Eagles, where he should at least be in the flex conversation for fantasy managers. The former undrafted free agent from Holy Cross has had a tough time staying healthy early in his NFL career, but he is the Panthers' clear WR2 when healthy, which gives him plenty of fantasy upside. Through three games so far in 2026, Coker has caught 18 of his 22 targets for 222 yards and three touchdowns. We will be closely following Coker's practice status this week from Wednesday through Friday.
