Watson was born on May 12, 1999, in Phoenix, Arizona, to parents Tim Watson and Christa Lynn.

As per reports, Tim is of African-American heritage while Christa comes from a white background. Hence, it is believed that Watson, who has reportedly been raised as a Christian, is of biracial ethnicity.

Interestingly, Tim played in the NFL as well and was selected by the Green Bay Packers in the 1993 draft. The safety also had stints with the Kansas City Chiefs, New York Giants, and Philadelphia Eagles.

Tim had a brief spell in the World League of American Football for the Barcelona Dragons in 1996 and the Arena Football League for the Arizona Rattlers in 1998.

Unfortunately, there isn't a lot of information on Watson's mother Christa. However, the Packers star has often credited her for being a strong support system during his journey to reach the NFL.

Watson's parents were delighted when he was selected by the Packers in the second round of the 2022 NFL draft.
