Christian Watson is Aaron Rodgers' favorite new weapon and the rookie is balling for the Green Bay Packers. The North Dakota State University alum has been giving off Davante Adams vibes over the last six weeks and he's one of the league's most impressive rookies. Watson probably heard all the slander early on in the season, and he has silenced his critics with a hailstorm of touchdowns.

Watson is just a touchdown away from having ten in his debut season. What's crazy is that he has scored eight TDs since Week 10. Watson is now Rodgers' go-to option in the red zone and is rewarding his fantasy owners with incredible production.

You can expect Watson to remain a threat in the Packers' Week 15 matchup against the Los Angeles Rams. Jalen Ramsey has his work cut out for him in this one and you should definitely start the rookie receiver this week.

Christian Watson is 6' 5" and 208 lbs. He can beat cornerbacks for pace and outmuscle them in the air. Thanks to his awesome athletic ability and size, he has the uncanny ability to score a TD from anywhere on the field.

How is Christian Watson performing this season?

Watson is having an incredible debut season, which is even more impressive after his rough landing in the NFL. He had the ignomony of dropping an easy long touchdown pass on the first offensive snap of the campaign and the pressure began to mount on the second-round pick.

That pressure is now long forgotten and the North Dakota State University alum is among the frontrunners for offensive rookie of the year.

Christian Watson has recorded 25 receptions for 401 yards and seven touchdowns in ten games played this season. He has also rushed for 68 yards and two touchdowns in the same timeframe. With eight touchdowns in four games, the question of how long his spree will continue remains to be answered. We anticipate another touchdown this week against the intriguing Baker Mayfield-led Rams.
