Kristian Wilkerson Fantasy

Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Kristian Wilkerson re-signed with the team's practice squad on Tuesday. Wilkerson was released by the Raiders over the weekend but quickly re-signed with them after they cut linebackers Austin Ajiake and Isaac Darkangelo from the practice squad. Wilkerson has appeared in just two games so far this season but hasn't drawn a target. The Raiders passing game still revolves around Davante Adams and Jakobi Meyers.

Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Kristian Wilkerson caught 10-of-13 targets for 122 receiving yards during the team's 31-16 preseason loss to the Cowboys on Saturday. Wilkerson finishes the preseason with 17 receptions, enough to lead the NFL. Despite the strong performance, the third-year receiver will be on the roster bubble for the Raiders in a crowded receiving room that includes Davante Adams, Jakobi Meyers, Hunter Renfrow, Phillip Dorsett, and DeAndre Carter. Wilkerson has a promising future, but we will see on Tuesday if that will continue in Las Vegas or not.

The Las Vegas Raiders signed free-agent wide receiver Kristian Wilkerson to an undisclosed deal on Monday and released wide receiver Tyler Johnson in a corresponding move. Wilkerson joins the Raiders after he was waived by the Indianapolis Colts on May 2. The 26-year-old pass-catcher didn't play at all last year after suffering a concussion in training camp with the New England Patriots. In his first two seasons in the NFL in 2020 and 2021, he caught just four of his eight targets for 42 yards and two touchdowns, with all of his production coming in three games (one start) in 2021. Wilkerson will simply be trying to do enough in training camp this summer to stick around in Las Vegas.
