Summarised from 3 outlets · Updated 30 Oct, 02:27 · Archive
Green Bay Packers wide receiver Christian Watson was taken to hospital for precautionary tests after suffering a suspected chest injury during the second quarter of Thursday Night Football against the Carolina Panthers. Quarterback Jordan Love had thrown a 53-yard pass to Watson, who made the catch but was hit hard by two Panthers defenders at the Carolina 26-yard line. Watson walked off the field under his own power and was loaded into an ambulance in the tunnel.
Watson had been productive before the injury, recording six catches for 100 yards in the first half as the Packers led 20-10. The New York Post reports that he was cleared by hospital tests and returned from the hospital during the second half, making Thursday his third game of the season with over 100 receiving yards. Panthers cornerback Will Lee was also injured on the same play, holding his left hamstring.
