New England Patriots TE Benjamin Watson caught three of his four targets for 52 yards in Week 11 versus the Philadelphia Eagles.
SOURCE: Not available
Huddle Up: The 52 yards nearly doubled his previous season high. Watson is bringing more fantasy relevancy to the position than Matt LaCosse or Ryan Izzo did, but the 38-year-old is still not an advisable streamer and probably won't be at any point this season.

New England Patriots TE Benjamin Watson posted three grabs for 18 yards on five targets in Week 7 against the New York Jets.

Huddle Up: Watson was re-signed by the team this week and he knows the system. While he is a bit long in the tooth, he could help out fantasy owners in deeper leagues at a position that is a wasteland for fantasy purposes behind the top handful of studs. The Patriots host one of Watson's former teams, the Browns, in Week 8.

Updating a previous report, the New England Patriots re-signed free agent TE Benjamin Watson on Tuesday, Oct. 15.

Free-agent TE Benjamin Watson (Patriots) is expected to re-sign with the New England Patriots after the team released him last week. Per ESPN's Mike Reiss, the Patriots did not have a roster spot for him at that time, but injuries have altered the picture.
SOURCE: Not available
Huddle Up: It seems unlikely Watson is going to make much of a fantasy impact upon his (likely) return, but the tight end position is so weak in fantasy at the moment that anything is possible. Most owners can probably afford to sit back and wait to see how this thing plays out, but it's not out of the question Watson becomes a starter for New England in short order and able to contribute three or four catches per game.

New England Patriots TE Benjamin Watson will not be activated from the suspended list, according to a source.
SOURCE: Not available
Huddle Up: This comes as a surprise given the lack of contributions from Ryan Izzo and Matt LaCosse. What it does mean is that owners won't have to worry about the position being relevant for fantasy purposes anytime soon in New England.

New England Patriots TE Benjamin Watson did not travel with the team to Washington on Saturday, Oct. 5, and will not play in Week 5, per a league source. He can activated to the Patriots' 53-man roster by 4 p.m. ET Monday, Oct. 7.
SOURCE: Not available
Huddle Up: If you were taking a flier on Watson being activated for Week 5, you'll need to make other tight end plans. This leaves Matt LaCosse and Ryan Izzo as the Patriots' top tight ends but neither is fantasy option.
