Justin Watson Won't Play Against Patriots

Friday, January 16, 4:23 PM

Houston Texans wide receiver Justin Watson (concussion) didn't practice all week and has officially been ruled out for Sunday's Divisional Round game against the New England Patriots. Watson suffered a concussion in Monday night's Wild-Card win over the Pittsburgh Steelers. If the Texans advance to the AFC Championship next weekend, Watson won't be guaranteed to be ready to return. In addition to Watson being out, the Texans will also be without top receiver Nico Collins, who also suffered a concussion on Monday against the Steelers. Rookie Jayden Higgins and Christian Kirk, who had 144 receiving yards on Monday, should be the team's top two receivers, with rookie Jaylin Noel and Xavier Hutchinson also having elevated roles on offense.

Pat Bryant News

Pat Bryant Working With Training Staff This Offseason

Friday, May 8, 6:48 PM

Denver Broncos wide receiver Pat Bryant (hamstring) said he's been in Denver "basically the whole offseason," according to Park Gabriel of The Denver Post. "Just nursing the hamstring, overall getting right, getting my body back, and working with our training staff." Bryant is trying to get his body right after injuring his hamstring in the team's AFC Championship game loss to the New England Patriots. After being drafted in the third round (74th overall) last year out of Illinois, Bryant caught 31 of his 49 targets for 378 yards and one touchdown in 15 regular-season games (seven starts). His 378 yards ranked fourth on the team. The 6-foot-2, 204-pound wideout saw his role increase late in the season behind WR1 Courtland Sutton, but he mostly operated as the third or fourth wideout in Denver in his first year in the NFL. The 23-year-old will now look to carve out a bigger role in his sophomore campaign in 2026, but that's going to be difficult to do after Denver acquired Jaylen Waddle from the Dolphins in a big offseason trade. Bryant will probably go undrafted in 12-team fantasy leagues this fall. RotoBaller has him currently ranked as the No. 77 fantasy wideout.
