Green Bay Packers WR Sammy Watkins (hamstring) was placed on injured reserve on Saturday, Sept. 24, due to an unspecified hamstring injury.
Huddle Up: Watkins came alive in Week 2 with three receptions for 93 yards, giving hope that he'd emerge in what is an uncertain wide receiver situation in Green Bay. Instead, Watkins lands in familiar territory for the next four games: injured reserve. While Watkins' injury thins the field in Green Bay, Packers receivers are still impossible to trust in lineups right now.

Green Bay Packers WR Sammy Watkins (hamstring) did not participate in practice Friday, Sept. 23, and has been ruled out for Week 3.
Huddle Up: Romeo Doubs likely will be a big part of the passing game this week with multiple receivers dealing with injuries. He can be considered at least a flex option in fantasy leagues.

Green Bay Packers WR Sammy Watkins (hamstring) did not practice for a second straight day Friday, Sept. 23, and has been ruled out for Week 3 against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. WR Randall Cobb (illness) and WR Christian Watson (hamstring) also did not practice Friday, Sept. 23, but are listed as questionable. OT David Bakhtiari (knee) and TE Marcedes Lewis (groin) were limited in practice Friday and are also listed as questionable. WR Allen Lazard (ankle) and NT Kenny Clark (groin) were upgraded to a limited practice Friday and no longer appear on the injury report. OG Elgton Jenkins (knee) was upgraded to a full practice Friday and has also been removed from the injury report.

Green Bay Packers WR Randall Cobb (knee), PK Mason Crosby (illness), WR Allen Lazard (ankle), TE Marcedes Lewis (groin), WR Sammy Watkins (hamstring) and WR Christian Watson (hamstring) did not participate in practice Thursday, Sept. 22.

Green Bay Packers WRs Allen Lazard (ankle), Christian Watson (hamstring), Sammy Watkins (hamstring) and Randall Cobb (illness) did not participate in practice Thursday, Sept. 22.
Huddle Up: Considering the Packers chose to hold out four of their top receivers one day after all of them practiced suggests that the team is managing reps. That is pure speculation, however. Whatever the reason, it is not ideal for Aaron Rodgers to have only one of his top five receivers (Romeo Doubs) available to him on a key practice day ahead of a Week 3 showdown against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Stay tuned for more updates.

Huddle Up: Fantasy players should monitor the situation to see if Watkins will be available for Week 3. He posted 93 yards in the last game and has caught six of his seven targets. Watkins could be a possible flex option in deeper leagues.

Green Bay Packers WR Christian Watson (knee) has come along enough in his recovery from minor knee surgery that he is "hopeful" for Week 1 against the Minnesota Vikings, according to head coach Matt LaFleur on Monday, Sept. 5. Conversely, LaFleur was non-committal about the ability of WR Allen Lazard (undisclosed) in the opener.
Lazard is the big one here for fantasy purposes - at least for the moment. There were reports Lazard missed practices last week for undisclosed reasons, but it is still too early to get worried about his Week 1 status just yet. In the event Lazard doesn't play, Sammy Watkins and Randall Cobb would likely start, although the most interesting Packer wideout would likely be Romeo Doubs.

Green Bay Packers WR Sammy Watkins (hamstring) is expected to be removed from the NFI list Friday, July 29.

Huddle Up: Watkins will need to stay healthy if he's going to provide fantasy value, and there will be an opportunity for him to earn targets. At this point, Watkins is a WR5 with some upside if he can stay healthy.
