2023 Fantasy Outlook
Watson recorded 49 total tackles, six passes defended and an interception for a touchdown as a rookie in 2022. The 24-year-old cornerback looks poised to handle a similar role as a rotational player in the Chiefs' defensive backfield. Read Past Outlooks

Makes case as rookie
CBKansas City Chiefs
March 10, 2023
Watson compiled 49 tackles (37 solo), and an interception for a touchdown during the 2022 regular season.
ANALYSIS
As a seventh-round pick, Watson exceeded expectations as a rookie, claiming a regular role with 568 snaps. While he likely needed to prove his worth in training camp in 2022, he should enter 2023 on firm footing regarding his roster spot. However, from a fantasy perspective, Watson only figures to factor into dynasty formats with deep IDP options.
