Top Josh Watson News

  • Panthers' Josh Watson: Acquired by Panthers

    Watson was signed by the Panthers on Wednesday, Darin Gantt the team's official site reports.

    Watson spent some time on Carolina's practice squad last year after playing in 17 games with Denver between 2019 and 2020. He also suit up for two games with Houston late last season. He'll compete as a depth option at linebacker.

  • Josh Watson: Let go by Houston

    Houston plans to release Watson on Wednesday, Aaron Wilson of ProFootballNetwork.com reports.

    Watson joined the Texans late in the 2021 campaign and played exclusively on special teams across his two appearances with the team. He hasn't recorded more than five tackles in any of his first three professional seasons.

  • Josh Watson: Waived by Denver

    The Broncos waived Watson on Tuesday, Troy Renck of Denver 7 News reports.

    When healthy, Watson was a valuable special-teams player for Denver last year. However, with the addition of Baron Browning and a healthy Justin Strnad, the linebacker corps was too crowded to keep Watson around. He will likely garner interest from other teams before the regular season starts.

  • Broncos' Josh Watson: Back to work Wednesday

    Watson (hamstring) was absent from the team's injury report Wednesday.

    Watson was forced out of last week's game against the Patriots due to the hamstring injury, however, he's on track to suit up in Week 7. Now that the Colorado State product is back healthy, he'll likely assume his usual rotational role at inside linebacker for Sunday's game against Kansas City.

  • Broncos' Josh Watson: Ruled out for remainder of Week 6

    Watson (hamstring) has been ruled out for the remainder of Sunday's matchup against the Patriots, Patrick Smyth of the Broncos' official site reports.

    Watson fielded 59 percent of the special-teams workload during the Broncos' Week 4 win over the Jets, and he was activated again for Denver's Week 6 road trip to Foxborough. The 24-year-old suffered a hamstring injury during the course of Sunday's contest, weakening the depth behind starting middle linebacker Alexander Johnson. Were Johnson to go down as well, Joseph Jones or Malik Reed may need to pick up additional snaps in the front seven.
