While the Green Bay Packers steamrolled the New Orleans Saints 34–0, a loss of a different kind threatened to mar Monday night’s victory.
Packers wide receiver Christian Watson suffered a knee injury in the first half and didn’t finish the game. Fortunately for the Packers, it’s not as serious as initially feared.
