There will be more tests for Christian Watson’s knee injury

The Packers got an easy win on Monday night. But it didn’t come without a dark cloud.

Receiver Christian Watson left with a knee injury. More will be learned on Tuesday about its severity.

“There is certainly some concerncoach Matt LaFleur said after the game, via Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com. “We’ll get some more tests done tomorrow. Hopefully I’ll have an answer for you tomorrow.”

Watson suffered the injury, returned to the game and then left for good.

“It definitely hurt right away, but it felt like it was good enough to go back in, so I went back in and it felt OK,” Watson said. “But it just kind of stuck and I just couldn’t play the type of football I wanted to play, so I just had to shut it down.”

The Packers have clinched a playoff spot and can still finish as the No. 5 in NFC. Whether they’re five or six, they’ll be headed to face the eventual champions of the NFC South or NFC West — and the Packers will likely be favored in both games.

The Packers face the Vikings on Sunday in a game that was moved from 1:00 PM ET to 4:25 PM ET.
