After Green Bay Packers wide receiver Christian Watson tore his ACL last season, it has been a long recovery process to make a swift return this upcoming season. With the Packers losing to the New York Jets in the preseason opener, general manager Brian Gutekunst would give an update about the injury to Watson.
Speaking to the media on Tuesday, Gutekunst would go over the likely plan the team will go through with Watson, which is putting him on the Physically Unable to Perform (PUP) list to start the season. After the minimum four-game stay, Watson will be “chomping at the bit” to return, according to Matt Schneidman.
