Topsy turvy 2022 season
Latest Headline: Published 2023-01-17
Watkins caught four of eight targets for 131 yards in four games with the Ravens in 2022.
The veteran began the year in Green Bay but was released in December. He landed back in Baltimore for his second stint with the club and played an average of 29.8 snaps per game in that span. Overall, Watkins caught 27 of 49 targets for 394 yards and a touchdown, and his 8.0 YPT average was his best since 2018 while with the Chiefs. He was on a one-year deal prior to being released by the Packers and will likely hit free agency again this offseason. Watkins will be entering his age-30 season, and it's unlikely at this stage that he will be inked to a long-term deal at his next destination.

Draws four targets in Week 18
Latest Headline: Published 2023-01-12
Watkins finished with two catches for 79 yards on four targets in Sunday's 27-16 loss to the Bengals.
Making his third appearance for the Ravens since being claimed off waivers from the Packers, Watkins made a couple of splash plays and finished the regular-season finale as the team's second-leading receiver behind tight end Isaiah Likely (eight catches for 103 yards). Watkins played 37 of the Ravens' 75 snaps on offense (49 percent) and appears poised to retain a top-three role in the wideout corps in this Sunday's rematch with the Bengals in the wild-card round.
Not targeted in loss
Latest Headline: Published 2023-01-04
Watkins failed to record a single target in Sunday's 16-13 loss to the Steelers.
Watkins played 22 of the Ravens' 52 offensive snaps Sunday, operating as the team's No. 2 receiver behind Demarcus Robinson. The veteran wideout wasn't able to get involved in the offense with limited opportunities on the field. Watkins will look to be more productive in a Week 18 matchup with the Bengals, though it is unclear if Baltimore will have Lamar Jackson back under center.
