Watson is making his first appearance on the injury report this season, after catching three passes for 12 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 44-7 loss to the Jaguars. Given that his touchdown came on Baltimore's meaningless final drive, it's safe to assume the calf injury wasn't viewed as a major issue Sunday. A return to practice in any capacity Thursday would put Watson on track for Sunday's game against Pittsburgh. His role as Baltimore's top tight end appears secure, but his eight-catch Week 2 performance looks like a clear outlier. Watson had just three targets combined in the team's other two games.
