Michael Wilson Fantasy Stats

Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Michael Wilson had a major bounce-back performance in Week 14, hauling in 11 catches for 142 yards with two touchdowns on 16 targets. The 25-year-old has stepped up in the Cardinals' offense over the last half of the season, with Marvin Harrison Jr. (heel) bouncing in and out of the lineup. In the last three games with Harrison out, Wilson has averaged 16.3 targets, 12 catches, 148.3 yards, and tallied 30.8 PPR points per game. Entering Week 15, Wilson is RotoBaller's 12th-ranked wide receiver in PPR leagues despite a difficult matchup against the Houston Texans. The Texans' defense has allowed the fewest receiving touchdowns and the fourth-fewest receptions this season. With Harrison ruled out for a second straight week, Wilson should be viewed as a low-end WR1 in PPR formats that can garner enough targets to be inserted into fantasy lineups.

Following another monster performance in Week 14, Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Michael Wilson has further cemented his place as a waiver-wire home run. Wilson, who now ranks among the top 30 PPR wide receivers heading into the final month of the season, has gone off for 39 catches, 481 yards, and two touchdowns in the past four weeks alone, by far the best stretch of his career. Unfortunately for managers who have benefited from Wilson's recent outburst, they'll be forced to make a tough decision on Wilson at a high-stakes moment. As the fantasy playoffs begin for many leagues, the Cardinals will take on the stingy defense of the Houston Texans, who have allowed the third-fewest points to fantasy wide receivers. But Wilson has been so productive of late that he still deserves lineup consideration in all formats once again.

Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Michael Wilson caught 11 of his 16 targets for 142 yards and two touchdowns during Sunday's Week 14 loss against the Los Angeles Rams. He has consistently capitalized on every opportunity to produce with Marvin Harrison Jr. (heel) sidelined. In three games without Harrison on the field, Wilson is averaging 12 receptions, 148.3 yards, and 0.7 touchdowns. Over the last four weeks, he ranks as the second-highest-scoring wide receiver in fantasy football. As long as Harrison is sidelined, Wilson should be deployed as a strong WR1 option in fantasy football. Even when Harrison returns, Wilson is still a high-end WR3/flex with WR2 upside. Arizona faces off against a strong Houston Texans secondary in Week 14.

Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Michael Wilson went off in a two-game stretch across Weeks 11 and 12, recording 25 catches for 303 yards on 33 targets. Wilson's production was buoyed by the absence of Cardinals WR1 Marvin Harrison Jr. (heel), who missed those games after undergoing an appendectomy. Harrison Jr. returned to the field in Week 13, and Wilson recorded just three catches for 36 yards on seven targets. However, Harrison Jr. has yet to practice this week heading into the team's Week 14 matchup against the Los Angeles Rams due to a heel injury. If Harrison Jr. goes back on the shelf, Wilson could re-emerge as Arizona's lead wide receiver. The Cardinals are averaging 48.6 pass attempts per game over the last three weeks, so Wilson could be a good bet to see double-digit targets and profiles as a must-start fantasy wide receiver for as long as Harrison Jr. is sidelined.

Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Michael Wilson had three catches for 36 yards on seven targets in Sunday's crushing 20-17 loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in Week 13. The 25-year-old came falling back to earth on Sunday after having two outerworldly performances in his previous two games. Wilson took a statistical back seat to Marvin Harrison Jr. in his first game back after his appendectomy surgery. Harrison almost doubled up Wilson in catches and receiving yards on Sunday. However, quarterback Jacoby Brissett did keep his eyes out for Wilson throughout the game and forced a couple of targets Wilson's direction in key situations. Brissett and Wilson have a connection worth keeping an eye on, even with Harrison back in the fold. Wilson should remain a flex option in a pass-heavy offense despite heading into a tough Week 14 matchup against the Los Angeles Rams.

Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Michael Wilson has taken fantasy leagues by storm right before the fantasy playoffs. In back-to-back games, Wilson has earned over 15 targets and produced more than 110 receiving yards. Wilson enters Week 13 as RotoBaller's 20th-ranked wide receiver in Half-PPR formats in a favorable matchup against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The Buccaneers' defense has allowed opposing offenses to gain over 270 passing yards and three passing touchdowns in their last two games. Wilson could see more target competition if teammate Marvin Harrison Jr. (appendix) can play on Sunday. Harrison has officially been listed as questionable for Week 13 after missing the previous two games due to undergoing appendectomy surgery. Even if Harrison plays, Wilson has established a real connection with quarterback Jacoby Brissett. The two have been able to connect 25 times for 303 yards on 33 targets over the past two weeks. Wilson is a WR2 with upside heading into Sunday's matchup and can be comfortably inserted into fantasy lineups.

Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Michael Wilson has seen a staggering 32 targets over his last two games, converting that into 25 catches for 303 yards. In a rare third-year midseason breakout, he has taken full advantage of the opportunity presented by the two-game absence of Marvin Harrison Jr. (appendix), who continues to recover from an emergency appendectomy. When asked on Tuesday about Wilson's role upon Harrison's return, Cardinals offensive coordinator Drew Petzing offered that he would be moved around the formation while continuing to see early reads. He went on to say, "When you produce in this league, we're gonna give you more opportunities to continue to do that." Wilson remains a must-start for as long as Harrison is out, but in a suddenly pass-heavy Jacoby Brissett-led offense, he should maintain flex value down the stretch and into the fantasy playoffs.

The Arizona Cardinals could tweak their offense to make wide receiver Michael Wilson the WR1, even when Marvin Harrison Jr. (appendix) returns, according to Theo Mackie of The Arizona Republic. "Yeah. Throw it to the guys that are making plays for you. Absolutely," head coach Jonathan Gannon said when asked if Wilson could stay more involved when Harrison is back. In the two games that Harrison has missed due to an appendectomy, Wilson has gone off, catching 25 of 33 targets for 303 receiving yards. The sudden uptick in workload has made him a must-roster and must-start player in fantasy football as quarterback Jacoby Brissett continues to latch onto him as his top target. Wilson's target share will inevitably drop when Harrison returns, but it might not end up being all that big of a drop. Even if Harrison returns in Week 13 against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Wilson should at least be in play as a WR3/flex for fantasy managers.

Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Michael Wilson put up another exceptional performance in Sunday's 27-24 OT loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars, and profiles as one of the week's biggest pickups if teammate Marvin Harrison Jr. (appendix) remains sidelined for another contest. Wilson has racked up gaudy numbers despite the team dropping their last two games. Over that stretch, the 25-year-old has posted 25 receptions and 303 scoreless yards on a whopping 33 targets. As of now, it's unclear how much longer the team will be without Harrison Jr., although it's possible that even his return may not knock Wilson down that many pegs. Quarterback Jacoby Brissett is averaging 43.5 pass attempts per game since becoming the starter. That figure has jumped to 50 over the last three, supporting three solid fantasy options in two of them. Expectations will need to be tempered with the second-year pro coming back from an appendix issue, but Wilson has made a case to remain involved even when that happens.

Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Michael Wilson has immediately become a legitimate contributor for the Cardinals and fantasy managers in the last two games with Marvin Harrison Jr. out following an appendectomy. For the second straight week, Wilson had double-digit receptions (10) and over 100 yards (118) on a team-15 targets in the team's 27-24 overtime loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars on Sunday in Week 12. Last week, the 25-year-old caught 15 of his 18 targets for 185 yards. Quarterback Jacoby Brissett has latched onto Wilson as his top target with Harrison sidelined, making him a popular waiver-wire pickup last week. If Wilson is still available in your league, he needs to be scooped up immediately. It's unclear if Harrison will be ready to return in Week 13 versus the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, but even if he does come back, Wilson should remain involved in a fantastic matchup against a Bucs defense that has given up tons of yardage the last few weeks through the air.
