Club career
Watson started his career at London Irish in 2009,[2] where he came through the club's academy. He only made six first team appearances before moving to Saracens in 2011.
Watson never made a competitive first team appearance for Saracens but did help them win the JP Morgan Premiership Sevens.
Watson transitioned back to 15-a-side[3] when he signed with Newcastle Falcons after three years with England Sevens in February 2015.[4] He was awarded the team's player of the month in November 2017.[5] On 22 February 2017, Watson signed for Premiership rivals Wasps in the English Premiership ahead of the 2017-18 season.[6]
International career
Watson played for England in the World Rugby Under 20 Championship in 2010. Marcus played for England national rugby sevens team from 2012–2015.
He was selected for Team GB's Rugby 7s squad to play at the Rio Olympic Games 2016 [7] in which GB won silver.[8]
