Wide receiver Christian Watson will miss another game. The second-year player was listed as questionable, but didn't recover in time to face the Chicago Bears on Sunday in the Green Bay Packers regular season finale. It's his fifth consecutive game out, since he suffered a hamstring injury against the Kansas City Chiefs.
From all questionable players, Watson is the only inactive. He finishes the season with 28 receptions for 422 yards and five touchdowns.
As expected, running back AJ Dillon and linebacker Isaiah McDuffie are also on the inactive list.

WR Grant DuBose
The good news is both Jayden Reed (chest) and Dontayvion Wicks (chest) are available and active. With that, fellow rookie wide receiver Grant DuBose, who had been elevated from the practice squad, is a healthy scratch.
Tight end Luke Musgrave (kidney) and running back Emanuel Wilson (shoulder), who had been activated from IR on Saturday, are back after missing six games.
Guard Elgton Jenkins (knee/ankle) and edge defender Preston Smith (ankle) are good to go as well.
Other side
The Chicago Bears will also be without important players. Cornerback Jaylon Johnson and wide receiver Darnell Mooney are inactive, while center Lucas Patrick was placed on injured reserve.
