ARI WR Michael Wilson - Week 16 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 16 at Chicago Bears

Michael Wilson returned to action last week against the 49ers, but was held catchless on just three targets. While there’s potential for increased targets with Marquise Brown struggling with a heel injury, the Cardinals simply haven’t provided fantasy points at the wide receiver position with any kind of consistency this season. Fantasy managers should steer clear and the only Arizona pass-catcher worth starting is tight end Trey McBride.

ARI WR Michael Wilson - Week 11 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 11 at Houston Texans

Michael Wilson caught three balls for 34 yards in Kyler Murray’s return to action last week against the Falcons. It might take some time for the rookie to build a rapport with Murray, so fantasy managers should be patient with him. It was good to see him earn six targets, but he’s too risky to put in fantasy lineups in most leagues.

Update: Hopefully, you weren't counting on Wilson anyway, but it looks like he's going to be inactive for Week 11, so be sure to get him out of lineups.

ARI WR Michael Wilson - Week 10 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 10 vs. Atlanta Falcons

Michael Wilson was out last week, but seems like he’s going to be available against the Falcons in Week 10. Atlanta is a tough matchup, but with Kyler Murray also set to return, this offense could look very different. Take a cautious approach with Wilson, as we don’t know how healthy he is or how soon he’ll develop a nice rapport with Murray, but he’s worth rostering just in case he has a nice second half with the quarterback change.

ARI WR Michael Wilson - Week 9 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 9 at Cleveland Browns

Michael Wilson has shown flashes during his rookie season, but the offense has been plagued by inconsistency, limiting Wilson’s production. He had 58 yards on four receptions last week in a blowout loss to the Ravens. In a tough matchup against the Browns and with a quarterback change, sit Wilson this week.

Update: Wilson is inactive this week. Hopefully, you weren't starting him anyway, but if you were, be sure to get him out of your lineup.

ARI WR Michael Wilson - Week 7 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 7 at Seattle Seahawks

Michael Wilson caught three balls for 62 yards last week. He continues to show a tremendous amount of promise as an outside receiver in this offense, with significant upside to grow as the team gets better around him. He’s far from being a fantasy lock, but he keeps inching close to double-digit fantasy weeks and seems to have secured his position on the depth chart.

This week, Wilson has an excellent matchup against a Seattle defense that ranks 30th in aFPA to opposing wide receivers. He’s still a risk, as is most of the Arizona offense, but his upside and great matchup make him worth gambling on as a fantasy WR3 if you need some bye week help.

ARI WR Michael Wilson - Week 6 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 6 at Los Angeles Rams

After a breakout performance in Week 4, Michael Wilson struggled along with the rest of the offense against the Bengals last Sunday, catching just one of two targets for 18 yards. It was Wilson’s worst game of his young career, and the team will try to regroup after a lopsided loss.

This week, Wilson faces a tough Rams defense that ranks fourth in aFPA to opposing wide receivers. While Wilson remains a player with long–term upside, fantasy managers should keep him on the bench this week against a difficult opponent and with a shaky quarterback situation. We have him ranked outside WR3 range.

ARI WR Michael Wilson - Week 5 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 5 vs. Cincinnati Bengals

Michael Wilson had a breakout game against the 49ers last week, catching all seven balls thrown his way for 76 yards and a pair of touchdowns. Wilson is one of the few Arizona wide receivers with size at 6-foot-2, 213 lbs, and he earned 70% of the team’s offensive snaps in Week 4.

Wilson has a pretty good matchup this week against a Cincinnati defense that ranks 21st in aFPA to opposing wide receivers. It’s risky to expect high fantasy numbers from a rookie wide receiver with limited production, but coming off a great game against the 49ers, it’s hard not to get a little excited about the youngster. He should be viewed as a risky WR3 option this week, but stash him on all fantasy rosters in case this progression continues.
