We should have a 3 WR rotation (Worthy, Watson, and Ju Ju) with Mecole as a brief breather as needed. That is going to require us to shift a little more to heavier sets, which Andy knows how to get the most out of if needed. Rotate Kareem and Perine to keep them fresh. Let Steele give a blow occasionally, but limit his snaps for now.
That’s where I’m reading into the fortson signing. He was actually becoming a solid run blocker before he got hurt. [Reply]

NOT counting Kelce. Just the WRs
No he will not. Watson has had plenty of opportunities to put up big numbers, but it doesn't matter if he plays 30% of the snaps or 75% of the snaps he is going to get 2 rec for 20-30 yards. Xavier Worthy will lead the WR room in rec yards. [Reply]

Thats who I would bet on as well but it would not surprise me if Watson had more. They will be focusing on Worthy now. [Reply]

Justin Watson is fully capable of exploding for 60 yards in a game. [Reply]
