Packers WR Christian Watson avoided major injury

Dec 15, 2025

Wide receiver Christian Watson left the game after landing hard on his left side while trying to catch a deep pass from Jordan Love in the third quarter and he was ruled out with a chest injury a short time later. Watson was able to travel back to Green Bay with the team after being evaluated at a Denver hospital.

Fantasy Impact:

The story went on to say the specifics of that evaluation haven’t been shared, but Ian Rapoport of NFL Media reports that Watson avoided a major injury. The story added it's not clear if that means Watson will be available for Saturday’s road game against the Bears and more information on that front should come from the team on Monday. The early week certainly won't help, but we'll monitor the injury report this week for updates.

Rams WR Davante Adams injured his hamstring Sunday against the Lions and head coach Sean McVay sounded pessimistic about his chances of playing Thursday against the Seahawks.

Fantasy Impact:

The Rams avoided a scare when Puka Nacua only suffered cramps, otherwise the Rams could have been down their top two wide receivers. They could be without Adams for a huge NFC West showdown in Seattle Thursday but McVay did say he “certainly wouldn’t rule him out yet.” It’s a tough turnaround on a short week so we’ll keep an eye out. Adams caught four passes for 71 yards in the 41-34 win over the Lions.

An MRI Sunday confirmed a torn ACL for Chiefs QB Patrick Mahomes, the team announced.

Mahomes tweeted, "Don't know why this had to happen. And not going to lie it hurts. But all we can do is trust in God and attack every single day over and over again. Thank you Chiefs kingdom for always supporting me and for everyone who has reached out and sent prayers. I will be back stronger than ever."

The Chiefs and Mahomes are exploring surgery options.

Sunday ended up a nightmare day for the Chiefs, losing their star quarterback and being eliminated from playoff contention at 6-8. Gardner Minshew came on in relief and went 3-of-5 for 22 yards with an interception.
