Jordan Watkins caught all four of his targets for 86 yards and a touchdown in the 49ers’ Week 9 win against the Raiders.
Watkins’ big day was capped off by a second half 37-yard touchdown grab on a perfectly placed ball from Brock Purdy. Watkins, who had 56 yards on three receptions in Week 7, functioned as the Niners’ top wideout with Mike Evans (Achilles) out. Watkins led the Niners in pass routes against a lousy Raiders secondary. He’ll be in play as a WR3 option in Week 10 against the Cowboys if Evans remains sidelined.
