Overview
- Watson said after Wednesday’s practice that his plan is to play Sunday night in Pittsburgh, though the decision remains with the trainers.
- The Packers opened his 21-day PUP practice window on Oct. 6, and he has ramped up work while being listed as a limited participant Wednesday.
- Green Bay must activate him by 3 p.m. Sunday or he will revert to injured reserve when the window closes Oct. 27, ending his season.
- The 6-foot-5 receiver averaged 21.4 yards per catch last year, and teammates expect his speed to stretch defenses alongside rookie Matthew Golden.
- He signed a one-year extension with $11 million in new money before returning to practice, reducing pressure to rush back for a contract.
