Christian Watson plans to make his 2023 season debut on Thursday night against the Detroit Lions, eager to return after missing the first three games due to a hamstring injury.
When asked if he'll play in Week 4, Watson confidently responded, "That's the plan, yes sir," following a successful walkthrough on Tuesday.
Watson's return is expected to bring a "different element" to the Packers' offense, with his speed and playmaking abilities poised to add a new dimension to the team's performance.
Despite his injury and recovery process, Watson mentioned that there were no setbacks, and he was determined to return as soon as he felt ready.
Watson sustained his hamstring injury during practice on August 31, and his absence will have lasted for approximately a month by the time he takes the field on Thursday night.
The time for Watson's return appears to have arrived, and the Packers are eager to see his impact on the field against the Lions.
