Packers WR Christian Watson expected to log limited practice on Wednesday

Dec 17, 2025

Packers coach Matt LaFleur said Christian Watson is expected to practice today on a limited basis.

“He’s improving. We’ll just see how he’s feeling out there.”

LVN and Dontayvion Wicks also likely to go today in a limited fashion.

The other DNPs yesterday likely still out.

Related Players: Jayden Reed, Romeo Doubs, Matthew Golden

Fantasy Impact:

This is a great sign, considering how serious the injury looked immediately after the play. With how the Packers rotate all their receivers, Reed would still be in the fantasy conversation, even if Watson returns to the field. Watson himself might be a little more of a stay-away unless he's back to 100% earlier in the week; a "snap count" might be on the horizon for the deep threat.

Dolphins moving to QB Quinn Ewers, benching Tua Tagovailoa

A major move in Miami: the Dolphins are benching QB Tua Tagovailoa and turning to Quinn Ewers as their new starting QB, per sources.

Ewers’ first start comes Sunday vs. the Bengals.

Fantasy Impact:

Tagovailoa has looked unwilling —or incapable— to throw down the field this season, and that, paired with the lack of physical tools to make things happen on the ground, has stifled the Dolphins' offense.

Ewers isn't exactly known for having a big arm, but it's probably in everybody's best interest to see if he can run the offense with similar efficiency. He should be left on waiver wires outside of deep SuperFlex leagues.

Eagles RB Saquon Barkley listed as DNP Tuesday, QB Jalen Hurts not on report

Pro Football Talk

yesterday · 9:22 PM EST

During the second half of Sunday’s win over the Raiders, Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts seemed to suffer a leg injury when he was twisted awkwardly during a tackle. He doesn’t appear on the first injury report for Week 16, in advance of Saturday’s game against the Commanders.

The Eagles held a walk-through, not a full practice. The report for Tuesday is an estimate as to the participation, or lack thereof, if the team had conducted a normal practice.

Another key offensive player showed up on the report, with an injury that would have kept him from practice. Running back Saquon Barkley has a stinger.

Related players: Tank Bigsby, Will Shipley

Fantasy Impact:

We reported on Hurts on Monday having a possible knee issue, other reports said it was an ankle, but either way he's not in the injury report. Barkley is a bit of a surprise, however. Bigsby was listed as limited with an illness, and would likely see a nice workload should Barkley not be able to play. Shipley would also get some touches as well.

Packers RB Josh Jacobs (knee) listed as DNP Tuesday

Running back Josh Jacobs (knee) was listed as out with an injury he’s been dealing with for several weeks.

Fantasy Impact:

Jacobs was questionable to play in Week 15, but scored two touchdowns in the loss to the Broncos, the story pointed out. The hope is he'll play this week as well, in a short week with a game on Saturday night. However, it's a key, NFC Central division matchup with Bears. Jacobs' status will of course be worth monitoring as the week goes on.
