Green Bay Packers wide receiver Christian Watson (knee) will not play in Week 6 against the Cincinnati Bengals, but head coach Matt LaFleur said he's looked "pretty damn good" and that he's "excited for when that day comes," according to Rob Demovsky of ESPN. The Packers aren't going to rush Watson back after he tore his ACL in the Week 18 regular-season finale last year. The 26-year-old returned to practice for the first time this year on Wednesday and has been limited this week. Depending on how much Watson is able to do next week in practice, it's possible he'll officially be activated from the Physically Unable to Perform list to make his debut in Week 7 versus the Arizona Cardinals. Watson has had trouble staying healthy early in his NFL career and will be returning to a crowded receiving corps, but he has the potential to be an explosive deep threat for the Packers' offense when everything is right.

Detroit Lions wide receiver Jameson Williams caught six of his seven targets for 66 yards and one touchdown during Sunday's Week 6 win over the Kansas City Chiefs. He led the team in receiving yards and put an end to what had been a frustrating few weeks for the deep threat. Over the last three weeks, Williams had failed to surpass 6.5 fantasy points (PPR) in a single game. He scored nearly triple that number on Sunday night, giving him momentum ahead of a Week 7 clash with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. He's a high-ceiling, low-floor WR3/flex every week.
Still trying to decide between Watson and Williams? Check on the latest news to make sure both players are active and healthy. Our PPR projections show that Christian Watson is projected to score 1.1 points this week while Jameson Williams is projected to score 9.8 points.
