Packers WR Christian Watson avoids serious injury

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Christian Watson avoided a serious knee injury in Monday night’s playoff-clinching win against the New Orleans Saints.Watson was injured in the second quarter of the 34-0 victory at Lambeau Field after being tackled at the end of a 14-yard run. He returned to play seven more snaps before exiting the game for good.”We got good news on him,” coach Matt LaFleur said Tuesday. “It’s more just a bruise. It’s when the guy fell on him on the sideline. Still gotta be able to function. We’ll see how he practices this week and see where we’re at.”
