Packers' Christian Watson: Listed as DNP on estimated report
Watson (hamstring) was listed as did not participate on the Packers' estimated injury report Monday, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.
Watson has yet to play this season after suffering a hamstring injury toward the end of training camp. The second-year wideout has logged a few limited sessions over the past two weeks after not practicing at all ahead of the season opener, but he doesn't have a return timetable. With a short week ahead of Thursday's divisional matchup versus Detroit, Watson may miss a fourth straight game to start 2023, but he still has two more days to practice before Green Bay needs to make an official decision on his status for Week 4.

Packers' Christian Watson: Season debut delayed again
Watson (hamstring) is listed as inactive Sunday versus the Saints, Mike Spofford of the Packers' official site reports.
Watson has incrementally increased his practice reps through the first three weeks of the campaign, sitting out every session ahead of the season opener, finally returning to practice the Friday before Week 2 and logging a pair of capped practices Week 3 as he recovers from a hamstring injury. The extra on-field work won't result in Watson's season debut, though, leaving Romeo Doubs, Jayden Reed, Dontayvion Wicks, Samori Toure and Malik Heath as the Packers' options at wide receiver Sunday. Watson will turn his focus to suiting up Thursday against the Lions.

Packers' Christian Watson: Questionable for Week 3
Watson (hamstring) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game versus the Saints, Ryan Wood of USA Today reports.
After opening Week 3 prep with a limited practice Wednesday, Watson was held out Thursday. Coach Matt LaFleur downplayed the DNP, telling Matt Schneidman of The Athletic that was part of the maintenance plan with Watson's workload as he makes his way back from the hamstring injury that sidelined him for the first two games of the season. Watson's availability, or lack thereof, will become known approximately 90 minutes before Sunday's 1:00 p.m. ET kickoff.

Packers' Christian Watson: Sits out Thursday, but no setback
Packers head coach Matt LaFleur said that Watson (hamstring) was a non-participant for Thursday's practice as part of a maintenance plan for the wideout rather than because of a setback, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic
Watson sat out the Packers' first two games due to the hamstring injury, but he showed some tangible progress last Friday, when he logged his first limited practice session of the regular season. The wideout remained a limited participant for the Packers' first Week 3 practice Wednesday, and even though Watson took a step back in terms of activity Thursday, hope isn't lost for the wideout to potentially play this Sunday against the Saints. In order for that to become a reality, however, Watson will presumably need to resume practicing Friday in at least a limited fashion.

Packers' Christian Watson: Not practicing Thursday
Watson (hamstring) wasn't present at the media-access portion of Thursday's practice, Tom Silverstein of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.
After opening Week 3 prep with a limited session Wednesday, Watson doesn't appear to be ready to go with the hamstring injury that has kept him sidelined for the first two games of the campaign. If he goes down as a non-participant Thursday, he'll have just one more opportunity for on-field work before the Packers potentially give him a designation for Sunday's contest against the Saints.

Packers' Christian Watson: Practicing to start week
Watson (hamstring) is taking part in practice Wednesday, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.
Watson missed the first two games of the season but at least sparked some optimism about being close to a return after he practiced last Friday on a limited basis. Another appearance at practice Wednesday -- even if he's still limited -- suggests he has a real shot to make his season debut during Sunday's game against New Orleans.

Packers' Christian Watson: Another limited practice
Packers head coach Matt LaFleur said Watson (hamstring) was a limited participant at Wednesday's practice, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.
Since unexpectedly popping up Packers' first injury report of the season, Watson sat out games in Weeks 1 and 2 as he tended to a hamstring issue. Despite the lack of game action, he logged a limited session last Friday and took part in individual drills Wednesday, per Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com. The uptick in activity level is a positive sign for Watson's potential to make his season debut Sunday against the Saints, but his workload Thursday and Friday likely will determine whether he heads into the weekend with a designation.
