Season so far
It is early in the campaign for Xavier Watts, who has logged just one game and 75 snaps so far in 2026. In his lone outing against Green Bay, he turned in a replacement-level 62.4 grade defined primarily by neutral assignment execution across 69 snaps. His 61.4 coverage grade was weighed down by lapses in deep coverage, twice failing to get over in time to prevent chunk gains. On the positive side, Watts flashed effective downhill run support and quick perimeter tackling on early downs. He also salvaged his debut late in the fourth quarter by tracking a tipped pass in underneath zone coverage for an interception.
