Christian WatsonWRGB
A 2024 late-season ACL tear sidelined Watson for the first seven games of 2025, but upon his Week 8 debut, he showed immense upside. From Weeks 8-18, Watson ran 72% of routes with a 23% TPRR and 20% target share, posting 17.5 yards per reception (2nd), 2.54 YPRR (8th), 11 plays of 20-plus yards (10th), and 6 touchdowns (5th). He ranked fifth among all wideouts in fantasy points per route (0.57). With added volume, Watson can do significantly more than his WR22 pace (13.2 PPR/game) from that stretch.
