Purported No. 1 receiver Christian Watson and starting tight end Luke Musgrave have a "realistic" chance to play Sunday for the Green Bay Packers in the regular-season finale with the Chicago Bears.
The Packers are in the playoffs with a win against Chicago.
Watson missed the last four games with a hamstring injury but returned to practice this week.
Musgrave, recovering from a lacerated kidney, is being considered for the active roster on gameday for the first time since he was injured in Week 11.
"I'd say it's realistic, yes," Packers head coach LaFleur said.
Watson has five touchdowns catches but has been dogged by injuries since being drafted in 2022. When healthy, he's served as the big-play threat in Green Bay's offense and averages 15.1 yards on his 28 receptions this season.
Musgrave, the 42nd pick in the 2023 draft, is the co-star of the rookie class with wide receiver Jayden Reed and is tied for third on the team with 33 receptions despite missed time.
Green Bay is also hopeful Reed can go this week after he left last week's win over the Vikings with a chest injury. Reed had six catches for 89 yards and two touchdowns prior to leaving the game.
The team's leader with 60 catches, Reed has eight TD catches, tied with Romeo Doubs for tops on the Packers.
