The Packers lost four consecutive games to close out the regular season.
The contract that Christian Watson signed recently dropped down in apparent value by about $15 million once the deal’s structure was revealed, and this Friday morning the details of those incentives have been released. The Green bay Packers will surely hope that Watson hits many …
These incentives aren’t bonuses — they’re base salary escalators, which makes a notable difference.
Bears Bears LT Braxton Jones was benched in Week 4 last year after earning the starting job out of camp, but he heads into the 2026 season with another chance to win the job for Week 1. Jones admitted he has more confidence in his ankle after not being at his best last year due […

Bears The Bears added a pair of return specialists this offseason, including WR Kalif Raymond as a free agent and third-round WR Zavion Thomas. Chicago ST coordinator Richard Hightower praised GM Ryan Poles for bringing in both players and wants Thomas to learn from Raymond. “I …

Yesterday, the Green Bay Packers signed receiver Christian Watson to a four-year deal worth $110 million in new money, good for $27.5 million per season. This was sort of expected on my end, considering Detroit Lions WR2 Jameson Williams, another speedster from the 2022 class, si…
Now that we know the full contract details on Watson’s deal, how do you like it?
The Green Bay Packers made one of the most polarizing moves of the 2026 offseason. And there are more on the way.
I look at the recent contract and Watson's immediate and long-term value. The skinny: this deal inflates his value as a guy the Packers believe in and will feature, but it also might mean dynasty owners need to take an offer that's too good to pass up. Are you buying or selling W…

I’ve already seen so much online analysis of the Green Bay Packers’ contract extension with Christian Watson that basically boils down to “duhhhh BIG NUMBER, MAN HURT, NEVER HIT 700 YARDS, MAYBE I DOWN MY LOW T MEDS BEFORE CALLING DIVORCE ATTORNEY AND SNEAKING IN NINE HOLES.” And…

Green Bay just made Christian Watson one of the NFL's highest-paid receivers, betting that his elite efficiency and a larger role in a reshaped wideout room will outweigh the durability questions

Believe it or not, Christian Watson has yet to eclipse 620 receiving yards in a single season. Watson has put up between 611 and 620 yards in three of his first four years in the NFL, but injuries have been a huge reason for that. He has missed at least two games in every NFL […]
Romeo Doubs’ departure isn’t really about his volume numbers. Sure, he led the Packers in targets, receptions, and yards, but all of those numbers come with caveats. He was more than 100 yards behind Tucker Kraft when Kraft was lost for the season, and Doubs’ target share cratere…
