News: 20 hours agoWilson secured 11 of 17 targets for 89 yards and a touchdown in the Cardinals' 36-30 loss to the 49ers on Sunday.

Spin: Wilson's afternoon was reminiscent of several of those in his 2025 campaign, as the veteran receiver garnered a bulk of Jacoby Brissett's attention in his short- and mid-range role while leading the team in receptions, receiving yards and targets. Marvin Harrison was a bit more involved Sunday with three catches for 40 yards on five targets, but it appears clear Wilson and Trey McBride have far and away the most chemistry with Brissett. Wilson will take an 18-163-1 line on 31 targets into a Week 4 road matchup against the Giants next Sunday.

ESPN Fantasy Projection: After averaging 4.3 targets and 7.6 fantasy points per game during his first 38 NFL games, Wilson broke out with Jacoby Brissett under center during the final eight games of 2025, averaging 11.0 targets and 21.2 fantasy PPG. The stretch also coincided with Marvin Harrison Jr. dealing with health issues, and it's worth noting that Wilson's receiving lines in the four games Harrison was active weren't quite as good (3-40-0, 3-61-0, 4-34-0, 3-36-0). A healthy Harrison (along with TE Trey McBride) figures to lead to a return to earth for Wilson, but the 26-year-old did enough late last season to warrant WR4/flex consideration in drafts.
