Packers WR Sammy Watkins coming off NFI list, to practice Friday

The Green Bay Packers will get back a key veteran at the wide receiver position for Friday’s practice.

Coach Matt LaFleur said that Sammy Watkins will come off the non-football injury list with the “goal” of him practicing with the team on Friday.

Watkins, who is hoping to revive his career in Green Bay this season, went on the non-football injury list to start training camp and missed the first two practices with a minor hamstring injury.

The Packers were expecting to get him back early in camp.
