News: 4 days agoWilson caught his only target for 10 yards in Friday's 17-0 preseason win over the Steelers.

Spin: The Jets' starters played the opening drive, which resulted in a touchdown. Geno Smith hit all seven of his pass attempts, including a 10-yard pass to Wilson to convert on third-and-6 in Pittsburgh territory. The offseason addition of Smith gives the Jets' entire passing game a higher ceiling heading into 2026, and Wilson remains the team's top WR.

ESPN Fantasy Projection: Wilson is eyeing a bounce-back following an injury-shortened 2025 that limited him to seven games. It was the first time Wilson had missed time, having appeared in all 51 games during his first three seasons. The 2022 first-round pick ranked no lower than sixth among receivers in targets in each of those years, but he failed to produce a fantasy campaign better than 20th (PPG) due to New York's quarterback woes. Wilson was off to a hot start last season (four TDs, 14.2 fantasy PPG) thanks to a massive 33% target share (second highest). New York's signal-caller problems still aren't completely solved, but veteran Geno Smith should provide an upgrade over last year's Justin Fields/Tyrod Taylor duo. Wilson, 26, is one of the best raw talents at the position and should be valued as a good WR2.
