Packers WR Christian Watson practices again Wednesday

Green Bay Packers receiver Christian Watson was on the practice field again on Wednesday, increasing the possibility of him returning from a hamstring injury and playing in Sunday’s home opener against the New Orleans Saints.

Watson, who has missed the first two weeks of the 2023 season, practiced in a limited capacity last Friday but wasn’t yet ready to return on Sunday in Atlanta. He’ll have three more practices to get ready to play against the Saints this week.

Per Mike Spofford of the team’s official site, Watson was wearing a black sleeve on his injured leg during the start of practice Wednesday.
