After tearing his ACL just 294 days ago, Green Bay Packers receiver Christian Watson is expected to suit up and play against his former quarterback, Aaron Rodgers.
What does this mean for the game — and going forward?
Well, for this matchup between the Packers and Steelers, it might not mean as much immediately as it does in the long run. Don’t get me wrong! Watson should get up to speed fairly quickly, and will likely draw attention away from other receivers like Matthew Golden and Romeo Doubs. But for the most part, this game will be about shaking off the rust.
