The Green Bay Packers announced on Saturday that they have placed receiver Sammy Watkins on injured reserve, promoted running back Patrick Taylor from the practice squad to the active roster and elevated receiver Juwann Winfree from the practice squad to the gameday roster against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Watkins appeared on the injury report this week with a hamstring injury after he brought in three catches for 93 yards against the Chicago Bears last week. Watkins has a history of injuries, as he hasn’t played a 16-game season since his rookie year of 2014.
