GREEN BAY, Wis. -- The Packers could have receiver Christian Watson for Sunday's game against the Vikings even after he left Monday night's win over the Saints because of a knee injury.

Tests on Tuesday showed no structural damage to his left knee.

"We got good news on him," Packers coach Matt LaFleur said. "So [it was] more just a bruise. It was when the guy fell on him on the sideline."

When asked whether Watson could play against the Vikings, LaFleur said: "Potentially."

"You still gotta be able to function," LaFleur said.
