Chiefs' Jaylen Watson: Upgrades to full practice
Watson (back) upgraded to a full practice Friday.
Watson was limited Thursday but should be ready to roll Monday night against Washington. Watson has started all seven games this season, recording 30 tackles (18 solo), including 1.0 sacks, and four pass breakups, including one interception, on 96 percent of the defensive snaps.

Chiefs' Jaylen Watson: Listed as limited in practice
Watson (back) was a limited participant in Thursday's practice.
Watson appears to have picked up a back injury during Kansas City's blowout 31-0 win over the Raiders in Week 7, in which he played a season-low 71 percent of defensive snaps. Of course, since the Chiefs also benched multiple starters once the victory over Las Vegas was well in hand, it's difficult to put too much weight on Watson's low snap count. If he's unable to resume practicing in full Friday and/or Saturday, Watson will likely be assigned an injury designation for Monday Night Football versus Washington.

Chiefs' Jaylen Watson: Secures sack in loss

Chiefs' Jaylen Watson: Just one tackle in victory
Watson recorded one tackle (one solo) in the Chiefs' win over the Ravens on Sunday.
Watson played 98 percent of the Chiefs' defensive snaps against Baltimore, but Lamar Jackson (hamstring) and Cooper Rush rarely threw in Watson's direction. The Chiefs' top outside cornerback, Watson has 23 tackles (13 solo) and three pass breakups, including one interception, across four games to begin the season.

Chiefs' Jaylen Watson: Picks off Wilson in Week 3 win

Watson ranked third on Kansas City in tackles behind Nick Bolton (14) and George Karlaftis (10). Watson also registered a key interception, picking off Russell Wilson in the end zone as New York was driving toward the end of the first half. The pickoff was the second of Watson's career and his first since the 2022 season.

Chiefs' Jaylen Watson: Starts at outside corner
Watson recorded six tackles (five solo) and one pass defensed in Friday's 27-21 loss to the Chargers.
Watson started at outside corner, opposite Trent McDuffie, and was off the field for only one defensive snap. Watson looked to be in line for a breakout 2024 season before suffering a serious leg injury that sidelined him for most of the year. Now healthy, he appears to have retained a significant role in the secondary.

Chiefs' Jaylen Watson: Past concussion
Watson recorded one pass defended in Friday's 29-27 preseason loss to the Bears.

Chiefs' Jaylen Watson: Enters concussion protocol
Watson (concussion) is ruled out for the remainder of Saturday's preseason contest against the Cardinals.
Watson won't return to action Saturday, and he'll need to fully clear the NFL's concussion protocol before being eligible for further preseason action, making him uncertain to play Friday, Aug. 15 versus the Seahawks. Nazeeh Johnson and Nohl Williams figure to benefit from increased reps at cornerback as long as Watson is sidelined.

Chiefs' Jaylen Watson: Contributes in limited action
Watson played in only six regular-season games in 2024, but he finished with 32 tackles (21 solo) and six pass breakups.
The cornerback missed the last 11 games of the regular season with fibula and tibia fractures, but he returned for the playoffs and recorded five tackles (four solo) and a pass defensed across three games. Watson also started six games as a rookie in 2022 and two more in 2023, but this was the first regular season in which he started every game he played in. The seventh-round pick in 2022 is entering the final year of his rookie deal.
