What It Means:

Watkins described his eight-week absence as a "blessing" in disguise because it allowed him to get fully healthy, versus playing on a bum foot as he had early in the season. He said he ran roughly 20 plays on Wednesday and that his head is in the right place. Head coach Rex Ryan implied that Watkins will get in some limited action against the Jacksonville Jaguars in Week 12. He should be added in all formats, but will be a risky play in his first game back.

Our models project Watkins for 35 receiving yards and 0.16 touchdowns on 2 receptions in Week 12.
