Packers WR Christian Watson (knee) back at practice

Oct 06, 2025

Christian Watson is practicing for the first time since tearing his ACL in last season’s finale against Bears, opening his window to return from injured reserve. Big news for Packers offense.

Fantasy Impact:

There were reports before the season started that Watson would be itching to go as soon as possible and the team may have to hold him back. We weren't sure if and where Watson would have a role in the offense when he returned as well. But with Jayden Reed hurt and Matthew Golden yet to really burst onto the scene, Watson could have fantasy value sooner than later. There was no specific timetable for Watson's return, but the team has 21 days to decide. He may be worth a pickup if he's still on your waiver wire.

Patriots RB Rhamondre Stevenson misses Wednesday practice

Adam Schefter

yesterday · 7:07 PM EDT

Patriots RB Rhamondre Stevenson didn’t practice today due to a toe injury.

Related Players: TreVeyon Henderson

Fantasy Impact:

Still early in the week, but Henderson would be an incredible RB2 candidate in what should be a very good matchup. We'll keep an eye on things, but the rookie might jump from potential FLEX candidate to must-start territory with quickness.

Ravens QB Lamar Jackson officially off the injury report

Ravens QB Lamar Jackson (hamstring) is officially off the injury report and good to go Thursday night vs. Miami, along with every other player on the 53-man roster. At last, Baltimore getting healthy.

Related Players: Tyler Huntley

Fantasy Impact:

If Jackson is suiting up, he's in our lineups. Mark Andrews is still a touchdown-dependent top-15 option, but Zay Flowers moves back into fringe WR1 consideration.

49ers WR Ricky Pearsall misses Wednesday practice

49ers WR Ricky Pearsall (knee) will not practice again today, per Kyle Shanahan.

Others not practicing today: DE Bryce Huff (hamstring), C Jake Brendel (hamstring), DL Yetur Gross-Matos (hamstring), DT Alfred Collins, LB Dee Winters.

Related Players: Jauan Jennings, Kendrick Bourne, Demarcus Robinson

Fantasy Impact:

San Francisco is waiting with bated breath for the eventual Brandon Aiyuk return, but as it stands, it looks like Jennings should be considered a WR3 and Bourne a WR4 as we head into Week 4.
