Michael Wilson's Stats, Metrics, Game Logs, Projections & Rankings

Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Michael Wilson ended up as fourth in the pecking order for targets during the huge win over the New York Jets on Sunday. The second-year wideout finished the game with three receptions for 24 yards on four targets. The Cardinals opted to go more run-heavy in this game as they produced 32 carries compared to 24 pass attempts. This game further proved that Wilson is more of an afterthought in the offense as he's now posted six games with fewer than five targets and seven games with fewer than five receptions. The Cardinals have a bye in Week 11 before taking on the Seattle Seahawks in Week 12.

Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Michael Wilson would be a risky flex play in Week 9 when the Cardinals host the Chicago Bears. Wilson has recently put together some solid fantasy performances, including a five-catch, 31-yard, and one-touchdown game against the Miami Dolphins in Week 8. Although he is becoming more involved in the Cardinals' passing offense, he remains a touchdown-dependent fantasy player. With the Cardinals facing the stout Bears defense, there may be fewer scoring opportunities for the offense, which could limit production. However, Wilson is still capable of delivering a solid fantasy outing. He would be a risky flex option for managers in Week 9.

Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Michael Wilson caught just one pass for 15 yards in Monday's 17-15 win over the Los Angeles Chargers. The Chargers have one of the best pass defenses in the NFL, and that showed on Monday night as the Cardinals' wide receiver group couldn't get much going. Wilson was targeted three times and drew a crucial pass interference penalty but could only bring in one of the passes. While Wilson is a fringe roster candidate in fantasy, some managers may use this performance as a reason to drop the second-year wide receiver. However, the Cardinals' schedule does lighten up after this game, and he may be a player you don't want to let your league mates pick up. With the Cardinals traveling to Miami to face the Dolphins, Wilson remains a potential streaming option in that matchup.
