Packers WR Christian Watson suffered high ankle sprain

Sep 30, 2024

WR Christian Watson suffered a high ankle sprain in Sunday's loss to the Vikings.

Related players: Jayden Reed, Romeo Doubs, Dontayvion Wicks, Tucker Kraft

Fantasy Impact:

Watson will miss multiple weeks, Ian Rapoport reported Monday, per sources. He would later add that Watson could be a candidate for IR as well. While it's bad news for Watson owners, it does bring a little clarity to the position in terms of fantasy production as the Packers are loaded at WR. Reed had a 7-139-1 line and Wicks a 5-78-2 line as the Packers needed to play come-from-behind against the Vikings in Week 4. Doubs caught four balls for 39 yards. Kraft also had a big day going for 6-53-1. Wicks is most likely to be found on your waiver wire to pick up - at the very least to stash and see if his usage continues to be what it was in Week 4.

Rashee Rice feared to have suffered a torn ACL Sunday

Chiefs WR Rashee Rice is feared to have suffered a torn ACL during Sunday's game against the Chargers.

Fantasy Impact:

Rice was going for a tackle on a runback after an interception and was hit in the knee among a group of players. It's another huge blow to the Chiefs offense as Rice was the main weapon through the first month of the season and the team already losing Hollywood Brown. Travis Kelce finally had a solid game and while he'll continue to see more targets, the Chiefs now really need someone else at receiver to step up, whether that's Xavier Worthy or Mecole Hardman or even JuJu Smith-Schuster. Rice will get an MRI but the news doesn't look good. Head coach Andy Reid even said during the game to CBS' Tracy Wolfson that the injury didn't look good.

Fantasy Impact:

The injury happened in the first quarter during a runback of a Patrick Mahomes interception. Mahomes went for a tackle and ended up hitting Rice's knee. Rice was carted off the field. Rice did not a catch a pass Sunday. The hope right now is that his knee injury is a minor one.
