Wide receiver four on wide receiver five usage. Career high in volume as well. 9.3 targets per game. Christian Watson is not just a downfield threat. They're doing like little quickouts, occasional screen to him, some slant routes that provides a higher floor than we've ever seen with Christian Watson. Christian Watson to me looks like one of the best wide receivers in the game. So I want to keep continue to rank him very aggressively.

Career-high 9.3 targets per game; expanded role with higher floor

Christian Watson is ranked in the B tier with WR4/WR5 usage and career-high volume at 9.3 targets per game. The Packers' weak offensive line and poor running backs force more passing in neutral situations. Watson's role has expanded beyond downfield threats to include quick outs, screens, and slant routes, providing a higher floor than ever before. Aman Ross St. Brown considers Watson "one of the best wide receivers in the game" and continues to rank him very aggressively. The Packers face Tampa Bay's elite defensive tackles (Vea), which should lead to more passing.
