Christian Watson’s dad says his son doesn’t have a high-ankle sprain

Green Bay Packers receiver Christian Watson left action in Week 4 when he was twisted up pretty badly against the Minnesota Vikings. For a while, it looked like Watson potentially injured his knee before NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport reported that Watson actually had a high-ankle sprain, a diagnosis that The Twitter Doctors also landed on.

According to Watson’s own father, though, Watson apparently didn’t sustain a high-ankle sprain. On Twitter, Tazim Wajed, a former Packers player, took to social media to state that the team only initially believed that was his injury until he underwent MRIs.
