Packers 2026/27 Season Thread

[Cheesedog]

ESPN sources: Green Bay WR Christian Watson and the Packers reached agreement today on a four-year, $110.5 million contract extension that includes a $31 million signing bonus.

They’ll regret that one….

Yeah, he needs to be MUCH better than a sub-700 yds/season WR to earn this amount.

That looks like a great deal for both sides, similar to Reed. That's almost $50m less in signing bonus than Pierce

Yes, That's why I am waiting to see if there is anything else in there besides a SB. Is there a option bonus in there in 2027 that is pretty much guarateed money?

To me the amount is mind boggling. But, it's actually less than I thought it'd be. I was anticipating him demanding top money and claiming 'the system' was preventing him from putting up the huge numbers.

I would have liked to see a few games production, but i think RP is correct.

i anticipated Watson would get his contract at Thanksgiving as the Pack seems to do. If Kraft comes back, I now anticipate he gets his deal at Thanksgiving
