Cedrick Wilson Jr.'s Stats, Metrics, Game Logs, Projections & Rankings

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Cedrick Wilson Jr. had a greater impact throwing the football than catching it in Sunday's 20-19 loss to the Commanders. Wilson threw a 21-yard touchdown pass to Alvin Kamara in the third quarter. In his typical role as a pass catcher, he failed to log a reception and was targeted just once. Wilson did have a 15-yard catch early in the first quarter but it was wiped out due to a holding penalty. Even in the wake of the injuries that have cost the Saints the services of Chris Olave (concussion) and Rashid Shaheed (knee), Wilson has been unable to command significant attention. In his last four games, he has two receptions for 37 yards on three targets and he has a season-long line of 13-159-1. There is not much hope for Wilson as a fantasy asset in 2024.

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Cedrick Wilson Jr. has been unable to command an increased role despite the multiple injuries in the team's wide receiver room. Even with top targets Chris Olave (concussion) and Rashid Shaheed (knee) on injured reserve, Wilson's presence in the Saints' offense has been limited, with just four receptions for 71 yards since peaking with a 6-57-1 line in Week 7. Over the Saints' last three games, Wilson has just two targets and in Week 14 saw just one snap more than practice squad signee Dante Pettis (22-21) but ran three fewer routes. Now that Jake Haener is drawing the start in Week 15 in lieu of the ailing Derek Carr (concussion, hand), Wilson's prospects seem even dimmer than usual. Wilson belongs nowhere near a starting lineup in the first round of the fantasy playoffs.

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Cedrick Wilson Jr. hasn't done much on the field this season. Last week, Wilson hauled in his lone target for 19 yards in the loss to the Los Angeles Rams. The Saints are banged up at wideout which has put Wilson higher on the depth chart. However, Wilson still hasn't been involved much in the offense lately. At this point, fantasy managers should look elsewhere for help with Wilson having three receptions since Week 9.
