Packers' Christian Watson crossing fingers on 'concerning' injury suffered in Saints game

The Green Bay Packers got the job done on Monday night, as they guaranteed themselves a spot in the NFL playoffs by destroying the New Orleans Saints in a 34-0 victory at Lambeau Field.

Despite how the final score reads, it was not a completely pleasant experience for Green Bay, with wide receiver Christian Watson suffering an apparent knee injury during a rushing play in the first half. Watson would get checked and later return to the game before being ruled out for the remainder of the contest.

Following the game, the 25-year-old Watson said that “he's hoping for the best” for his knee, according to Matt Schneidman of The Athletic, who also reported that the wideout will have the injured knee “checked” this Tuesday.
