Christian Watson and Keisean Nixon are two of the most important big playmakers on the Green Bay Packers. Both were limited in practice this week with injuries. Nixon had a groin injury that he suffered in the Packers’ Christmas Day game against the Miami Dolphins. It occurred after he returned one kickoff 95 yards. Watson, on the other hand, was limited with a hip injury. Both were considered game-time decisions after practice wrapped up on Friday. Per Matt Schniedman of the Athletic, both Christian Watson and Keisean Nixon will play against the Minnesota Vikings today:
