Packers wideout Christian Watson avoided a major injury in Sunday's devastating defeat in Denver, NFL Network reported on Monday.
Micah Parsons, Green Bay's star pass-rusher, is believed to have sustained a torn left ACL during the 34-26 loss to the Broncos.
Watson, who missed the first six games this season while rehabbing his own torn ACL, left with 12:55 remaining in the third quarter with an apparent chest or shoulder injury that required a trip to the hospital.
Watson, 26, sustained the injury on a deep pass that was intercepted by Broncos cornerback Patrick Surtain II, who landed on Watson while making the catch.
Watson had three catches for 29 yards at Denver and has 28 receptions for 481 yards and five touchdowns in eight games (all starts) this season.
A second-round draft pick in 2022, the speedy Watson has recorded 126 catches for 2,134 yards with 19 TDs in 46 career games (43 starts).
