2024 Receiving Stats

Huge game Saturday
Watson caught six passes for 129 yards and a touchdown in a 55-23 win against New Mexico State on Saturday.
ANALYSIS
The Idaho native caught his first touchdown of the season for the Vandals’ first score and had a career-high in yardage. Before this game, Watson didn’t have more than five catches or 67 yards this season despite facing weak pass defenses like Troy, Washington State and UNLV, but expectations for him this year were generally higher than that. He has a tough matchup against Appalachian State ahead.

2016 Fantasy Outlook
In Idaho's unconventional, uptempo offense, TE is utilized much more in the passing game than most teams, and Watson's the lead guy at the position. A former wide receiver, Watson (6-4, 222) caught 42 passes for 551 yards and seven touchdowns in 11 games last year, and something similar should be in store for 2016. Although he was limited to six games due to suspension and dismissal, wideout Dezmon Epps led Idaho with 61 receptions last year, and his departure means Watson should increase his share of the completed passes at Idaho this year.
