Green Bay Packers final injury report ahead of Thursday Night Football vs Lions

Packers quarterback Jordan Love may get the best possible news. He could have a healthy Christian Watson and Aaron Jones by his side for the game against the Lions.

Green Bay plays host to Detroit in Thursday primetime. It’s a huge early indicator for the NFC North pecking order, especially with the Vikings starting the season at 0-3. The Packers and Lions are both 2-1.

Watson strained his hamstring before the season opener and hasn’t played in a game, as yet. He was a big presence last season, his rookie year, catching 41 passes for 611 yards and seven touchdowns in 14 appearances, 11 of them starts.

Starting running back Aaron Jones had a big season debut, rushing for 127 yards and two scores against the Bears. But he strained his hamstring on his final TD and hasn’t played the past two games. He was a game-time decision last Sunday.
