From the article

Last season, Christian Watson was the WR15 on a points-per-game basis among wide receivers with at least nine games played. He averaged 13.2 PPR fantasy points per contest, despite averaging only 5.5 targets per outing after missing the first seven weeks recovering from a torn ACL. Furthermore, Watson averaged 16.1 fantasy points per game in six of the 10 contests with five or more targets last year. More importantly, the Packers moved on from Romeo Doubs and Dontayvion Wicks this offseason, which should open up more targets for Watson in 2026.

Watson's target share should expand with Doubs and Wicks gone; 16.1 PPR in high-target games.
