Sammy Watkins explodes on Thursday night vs. 49ers

Sammy Watkins caught 6-of-7 passes thrown his way on Thursday night vs. the 49ers in Week 3. He had 106 receiving yards with a long of 47 yards and also hauled in two touchdowns.

Fantasy Impact:

Watkins wasn't involved early on, but that all changed on the fifth drive of the game when he hauled in two catches for 30 yards. He came out in the second half with an amazing 47 yard catch before grabbing a one-yard TD on a nifty goal-line play. Watkins finished his night with a 13-yard TD where he bowled his way into the end zone, but had to be evaluated in the locker room afterwards. If Watkins comes out of this week unharmed he'll be a great WR for next week's matchup against the Dallas Cowboys, as he's shown to finally be on the same page as QB Jared Goff.
