According to ESPN's Adam Schefter, "a select group of NFL teams" have contacted the Jets regarding the availability of wide receiver Garrett Wilson. With New York recently acquiring Davante Adams, there are many who believe Wilson's days with the Jets are over. However, there hasn't been any indication suggesting the team would make a move, considering he's one of the league's most promising young receivers. Although Wilson was expected to have a breakout year in 2024-25, that hasn't happened. But in all fairness, he hasn't been horrible, amassing 41 catches for 399 yards and three touchdowns. It remains to be seen if Wilson and Adams can co-exist, so the situation is worth monitoring moving ahead. For now, the 24-year-old remains a must-start for Sunday Night's meeting with the Steelers.
New York Jets wide receiver Garrett Wilson will face off against the Pittsburgh Steelers on the road in Week 7's Sunday night game. Wilson is coming off an extremely productive two-game stretch in which he has caught 21 of his 33 targets for 208 yards and two touchdowns. That being said, he faces increased competition for targets after the Jets added Davante Adams in a trade with the Las Vegas Raiders earlier in the week. Adams, of course, was a longtime favorite target of Aaron Rodgers when the two played together with the Green Bay Packers. Wilson downgrades to more of a WR2 in fantasy moving forward as he will not be seeing the type of target volume he did in Weeks 5 and 6. The Steelers have also been tough on fantasy wideouts in 2024, allowing the 23rd-fewest fantasy points per game to the position. Wilson should still be started in all leagues but fantasy managers should temper expectations.
New York Jets wide receiver Garrett Wilson caught eight of his 10 targets for 107 yards and a touchdown in a 23-20 loss to the Buffalo Bills in Week 6. Wilson found the end zone for the second straight game and the third time in his past four games on a five-yard catch in the first quarter in the close loss on Monday night. The veteran wideout appears to be finding his chemistry with Aaron Rodgers of late as he's now caught 21 of his 33 targets for 208 yards over his past two games. Wilson is now sitting at 41 catches for 399 yards and three touchdowns on the season as the Jets will now begin preparing to take on the Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 7. After a slow start to the season, Wilson can be trusted as a WR1 in fantasy moving forward.
New York Jets wide receiver Garrett Wilson turned in his best game of the season against the Minnesota Vikings in Week 5, catching 13 of his 23 targets for 101 yards and a touchdown. He will look for another big performance in Week 6's Monday night game against the Buffalo Bills. Buffalo's secondary should provide more resistance for Wilson than Minnesota's as they have been tough against wide receivers, allowing the 26th-most fantasy points per game to the position. Tough matchup aside, Wilson reinforced last week that he is still the top target in New York despite Aaron Rodgers' strong rapport with Allen Lazard. Fantasy gamers should temper expectations for the entire Jets passing game in Week 6 but Wilson can still be started as a mid-range WR2.
New York Jets wide receiver Garrett Wilson caught 13 of his 22 targets for 101 yards and a touchdown in a 23-17 loss to the Minnesota Vikings in London in Week 5. Wilson easily set season highs across the board while drawing a ridiculous 22 targets against a leaky Minnesota secondary, although his 101 receiving yards still come in as a bit of a disappointment considering how much work he got. Wilson's touchdown came midway through the fourth quarter and put the Jets down just four points, but it wasn't enough as they were able to find the end zone again. Wilson will look to build upon his strong outing in Week 6's Monday night game against the Buffalo Bills.
