Christian Watson

Last week, Christian Watson returned to the lineup with a 67.7% route share, a 25% target share, and a 26.3% first-read share. Watson was running wide open on multiple occasions last week and had numerous missed opportunities. It could have been a huge game for him, but sadly, it didn't work out that way as he finished with two receptions and 17 receiving yards. Watson's target volume remains a concern this week, but he should lead the Green Bay passing attack and has the big play upside to get the job done with limited volume. Since Week 11, Watson has been the WR20 in fantasy points per game with six red zone targets and a team-leading ten deep targets. Since Week 11, Baltimore has had the second-highest single high rate in the NFL (60.8%). Since Week 11, against single high, Watson has led the team with a 24.5% target share, 2.53 yards per route run, and a 32.1% first-read share. The Ravens have had issues defending perimeter wide receivers, which also helps Watson's case. Since Week 12, Baltimore has allowed the seventh-most fantasy points per game and the second-most receiving yards per game to perimeter wide receivers.
