Packers head coach Matt LaFleur said Watson (hamstring) was a limited participant at Wednesday's practice, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.
Since unexpectedly popping up Packers' first injury report of the season, Watson sat out games in Weeks 1 and 2 as he tended to a hamstring issue. Despite the lack of game action, he logged a limited session last Friday and took part in individual drills Wednesday, per Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com. The uptick in activity level is a positive sign for Watson's potential to make his season debut Sunday against the Saints, but his workload Thursday and Friday likely will determine whether he heads into the weekend with a designation.
