What It Means:

Watkins evidently got bad news at his Monday physical. It's hardly unexpected after Watkins first went under the knife last spring, as "Jones" fractures have a high rate of requiring second surgeries. Watkins is still only 23, but has accrued one of the more troubling injury histories amongst skill players. It's unclear how soon Watkins will have the procedure, or how long he might be sidelined. He's all but certain to miss some of the offseason program.

Watkins' Reception Net Expected Points per target is 30th-best among the 92 receivers with 50 targets in 2016.
