Has the 4th-most yards after catch (64) among WR vs Man coverage over the first three weeks

Garrett Wilson is tied for the 9th-most yards after catch over expected (+22) among WR this season

Five catches in Week 3 loss

Wilson caught five of nine targets for 48 yards in Sunday's 15-10 loss to the Patriots.

Analysis: The majority of Wilson's yardage came on a 29-yard catch on the game's third-to-last play, after which the Jets spiked the ball with one second left to set up a Hail Mary that bounced off Randall Cobb's hand. Zach Wilson threw for just 157 yards, but at least Garrett led the team in targets, catches and receiving yards. The second-year wide receiver has also accounted for two of the Jets' three offensive touchdowns through three weeks, and Wilson should continue to work as the top option in New…read more

No injury concerns

Coach Robert Saleh said Monday that Wilson (undisclosed) has been cleared of any injuries following Sunday's 30-10 loss to the Cowboys.

Analysis: Wilson had the wind knocked out of him in the fourth quarter of Sunday's loss, but he didn't sustain any form of serious injury. He caught two of eight targets for 83 yards and a touchdown prior to leaving the field. With another tough defense on deck Week 3 when the Jets take on the Patriots, though, Wilson could be primed for another matchup in which Zach Wilson struggles to get the ball in his hands consistently.

Wind knocked out late in loss

Wilson (undisclosed) went to the locker room in the fourth quarter of Sunday's 30-10 loss in Dallas, Connor Hughes of SportsNet New York reports. He caught two of eight targets for 83 yards and a touchdown prior to getting hurt.

Analysis: Wilson checked himself out of the game and went into the blue medical tent after consulting with trainers along the sideline. He was taken to the locker room in the final minutes of the blowout loss, in which Wilson scored New York's only touchdown on a 68-yard catch and run. Per Andy Vasquez of NJ Advance Media, head coach Robert Saleh said after the game that Wilson had the wind knocked out of him and should be fine moving forward. Zach Wilson struggled to get Wilson the ball against a tough…read more

Back to Wilson under center

Wilson will be working with Zach Wilson as his quarterback in Week 2 against the Cowboys and beyond after tests Tuesday confirmed a season-ending Achilles injury for Aaron Rodgers, Eric Allen of the Jets' official site reports.

Analysis: Garrett didn't catch a single touchdown pass in the nine games Zach started last season, but the Wilsons connected for a pivotal score in the Jets' 22-16 overtime win over the Bills on Monday. Rodgers went down with the season-ending injury in the first quarter before completing a single pass with the Jets, and while predictions of a spectacular sophomore season from Wilson were tied in large part to the expected upgrade in quarterback play, the 2022 first-round draft pick out of Ohio State…read more

Spectacular TD after Rodgers injury

Wilson caught all five of his targets for 34 yards and a touchdown in Monday's 22-16 overtime win over the Bills.

Analysis: Aaron Rodgers (Achilles) exited the game on the Jets' first drive, and the starting quarterback may have suffered a season-ending injury. Zach Wilson (no relation to Garrett) failed to get New York's top target involved consistently, but the second-year receiver still came up with the highlight of the night on his game-tying, two-yard touchdown catch in the fourth quarter. Wilson reached across his body and used his right hand to corral a poorly thrown ball, then juggled it with the same hand…read more

Catches Rodgers' first TD

Wilson corralled all three of his targets for 30 yards and a touchdown in Saturday's preseason win over the Giants.

Analysis: Wilson joined new quarterback Aaron Rodgers in making their respective 2023 preseason debuts with the Jets on Saturday. The talented duo connected for an easy 14-yard touchdown to close out the first-team's second and final drive of the game. Wilson is poised to take his game to the next level after the Jets traded for the two-time MVP this past offseason. The Ohio State product accrued a 83/1103/4 receiving line last season while winning AFC Rookie of the Year with Zach Wilson, Joe Flacco and…read more

Not expected to play Saturday

Wilson isn't in line to play in Saturday's preseason game against the Buccaneers, Connor Hughes of SNY.tv reports.

Analysis: Per Randy Lange of the Jets' official site, Wilson returned to practice in recent days after spending two-plus weeks rehabbing a low ankle sprain, but it looks as though the team will play it safe with the wideout Saturday. In that event, Wilson's next chance to see exhibition action will be next Saturday against the Giants.

Not available Saturday

Wilson (ankle) won't play in Saturday's preseason contest against the Panthers, Andy Vasquez of The Bergen Record reports.

Analysis: Despite returning to team drills this week, the Jets are still being cautious with Wilson after he tweaked his ankle during training camp. Breece Hall (knee) and Aaron Rodgers are also sidelined, so Zach Wilson will lead the Jets' offense and presumably rely heavily on Allen Lazard, Corey Davis and Mecole Hardman.

Back to team drills

Wilson (ankle) is participating in team drills at Thursday's practice, Zack Rosenblatt of The Athletic reports.

Analysis: Coach Robert Saleh said early Thursday that Wilson would only participate in individual drills, but it looks like the second-year wideout has progressed quicker than expected. Granted, the Jets went through a light practice load, but it's nonetheless encouraging to see Wilson take another step forward. Saturday's preseason game against the Cardinals could still be too soon for Wilson to suit up, it may not be long until the wideout is back in full.

Handling individual drills

Wilson (ankle) will be limited to individual drills Thursday, Ethan B. Greenberg of the Jets' official site reports.

Analysis: Wilson remains sidelined from team drills, as has been the case since he injured his ankle roughly two weeks ago. Coach Robert Saleh has expressed optimism that the second-year wideout won't remain out for long, but at this point it seems highly unlikely he'll be available for Saturday's preseason game against the Panthers. After that point, Wilson will have just two more chances to get on the field for preseason game reps prior to the Jets' regular season-opener against the Bills.

No team drills Wednesday

Wilson (ankle) was once again held out of team drills during Wednesday's practice, Eric Allen and Ethan Greenberg of the Jets' official site report.

Analysis: Wilson continues to ease his way back from an ankle injury that he sustained earlier in training camp, but it shouldn't be long before the wideout resumes practicing fully. That said, Wilson appears unlikely to see action in Saturday's preseason game against the Panthers.

Likely returning soon

Wilson (ankle) is expected to fully participate in the upcoming joint practices against the Panthers on Wednesday or Thursday, Andy Vasquez of The Bergen Record reports.

Analysis: Wilson was supposed to return to practice Saturday, but it seems as if the Jets are taking a cautious approach with the stud wide receiver. The second-year target suffered a low-ankle sprain July 27 and has yet to participate in organized activities, but he's been spotted on numerous occasions doing work on the sidelines. It's unclear if the team expects Wilson to participate in the Jets' second preseason contest Aug. 12.

Expected back Saturday

Wilson (ankle) had a good workout Tuesday and is expected back at practice Saturday, Eric Allen of the Jets' official site reports.

Analysis: Wilson, who suffered a low ankle sprain last week at practice, is thus slated to miss the Jets' preseason opener Thursday against the Browns. Assuming no setbacks once he returns to the field, the wideout could potentially see work in the team's second exhibition contest, Aug. 12 against the Panthers.

Continues to miss practice

Wilson (ankle) remained sidelined at practice Tuesday, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.

Analysis: Wilson hurt his ankle during last Thursday's practice, but Antwan Staley of nydailynews.com relays that the wideout is dealing with a low ankle sprain. With that in mind, Wilson profiles as day-to-day and it seems unlikely that he'll take the field in Thursday's Hall of Fame Game against the Browns.

Not practicing Sunday

Wilson (ankle) won't practice Sunday, Zack Rosenblatt of The Athletic reports.

Analysis: Wilson turned his ankle during Thursday's practice and remains sidelined. Head coach Robert Saleh initially said the wideout should be okay and is considered day-to-day with a low-ankle sprain. Despite it presumably being a minor issue, it's not surprising to see the Jets take a cautious approach with the 2022 first-rounder, who caught 83 passes for 1,103 yards and four touchdowns across 17 appearances as a rookie.

Ankle issue downplayed by coach

Wilson hurt his ankle during Thursday's practice, Zack Rosenblatt of The Athletic reports.

Analysis: On the plus side, coach Robert Saleh noted afterward that all indications are that the Jets' top wideout will be okay. For now, consider Wilson day-to-day. The 2022 first rounder is coming off a strong rookie campaign in which he logged 83 catches for 1,103 yards and four touchdowns on 147 targets in 17 games.

Tops 1,100 yards as rookie

Wilson caught nine of 17 targets for 89 yards in Sunday's 11-6 loss to the Dolphins. He finishes his rookie season with 83 catches for 1,103 receiving yards and four touchdowns on 147 targets.

Analysis: Wilson had a phenomenal rookie season, establishing himself as the team's clear No. 1 wide receiver while setting the Jets rookie record in receiving yards. His production was even more impressive given New York's quarterback carousel of Zach Wilson, Mike White (ribs) and Joe Flacco, who peppered the 2022 first-round pick out of Ohio State with targets in the season finale. If the Jets can upgrade under center in 2023, Wilson would be well positioned to avoid a sophomore slump.

Can't take advantage of volume

Wilson caught three of 11 targets for 18 yards in Sunday's 23-6 loss to the Seahawks.

Analysis: He was by far Mike White's favorite option on the day, but the QB's struggles led to a brutal line in the box score for Wilson. The rookie wideout is ending his first NFL campaign with a whimper, posting a 7-48-0 line over the last two games despite 20 targets, and the Jets' unsettled quarterback situation will make him a risky fantasy play in Week 18 against the Dolphins.

Disappointing performance in loss

Wilson brought in four of nine targets for 30 yards in the Jets' 19-3 loss to the Jaguars on Thursday night. He also lost a fumble.

Analysis: The rookie receiver suffered a significant downturn in production in conjunction with a shaky night overall for the Jets' air attack. Zach Wilson was replaced by Chris Streveler late in the third quarter, which actually helped to boost Wilson's production somewhat. However, Wilson's lost fumble at New York's 38-yard line with just over four minutes remaining arguably snuffed out any chance at a successful comeback, as the turnover led to a field goal that gave the Jaguars a 16-point advantage.…read more

Almost 100 yards with Wilson at QB

Wilson caught four of nine targets for 98 yards in Sunday's 20-17 loss to the Lions.

Analysis: Wilson was targeted only three times in the first half by Zach Wilson, though one of those looks turned into a 33-yard reception. The rookie receiver was noticeably frustrated in the third quarter when he was running open beyond the sticks but the second-year quarterback missed him with an errant throw. Wilson kept his head in the game, though, and made another 33-yard catch in the fourth despite being interfered with by a defender on a drive which culminated with C.J. Uzomah's go-ahead…read more

Sets Jets rookie record in loss

Wilson caught six of seven targets for 78 yards in Sunday's 20-12 loss to the Bills.

Analysis: Wilson eclipsed Keyshawn Johnson's Jets rookie record of 844 receiving yards by raising his season total to 868. That total includes 335 yards in three games since Mike White took over under center for New York. White suffered a rib injury and was sent to the hospital as a precaution after finishing the game, but if the quarterback's available in Week 15 against the defensively challenged Lions, Wilson would be well-positioned to add to his recent success.

Thriving with White at QB

Wilson caught eight of 15 targets for 162 yards and threw an incomplete pass in Sunday's 27-22 loss to Minnesota.

Analysis: Wilson bounced off a tackle attempt and scampered downfield for a 60-yard gain early in the fourth quarter, but he stepped on the sideline at the 11-yard line, preventing him from coming away with a 71-yard touchdown on the play. The Jets had to settle for their fifth field goal of the game to cap that possession, cutting Minnesota's lead to 20-15. Wilson also had a chance to throw the ball on a trick play, but he wisely threw it away after Minnesota sniffed it out. The rookie first-round pick…read more

Two TDs in White's debut

Wilson caught five of eight targets for 95 yards and two touchdowns in Sunday's 31-10 win over the Bears. He added one rushing attempt for minus-1 yard.

Analysis: Wilson showed immediate chemistry with new starting quarterback Mike White, catching three of four targets for 32 yards on the opening drive, including an eight-yard touchdown. The pair hooked up again in the second quarter for a 54-yard touchdown, on which Wilson showed off his shiftiness after the catch. At least for one game, White looked like a considerable upgrade over Zach Wilson under center, which has the rookie wide receiver's arrow pointing up ahead of a Week 13 matchup with a leaky…read more

Held to 12 yards in Week 11 loss

Wilson caught two of three targets for 12 yards and rushed once for no gain in Sunday's 10-3 loss to the Patriots.

Analysis: Both offenses struggled on a windy day in Foxborough, but New York's passing game was particularly ineffective, as quarterback Zach Wilson completed only nine of 22 passes for 77 yards. This was the second-lowest yardage total of Wilson the receiver's career, and it came just three weeks after the rookie first-round pick racked up a career-high 115 yards against this same opponent. New York's entire offense has nowhere to go but up in Week 12 at home against a far more generous Chicago defense.

Will remain top dog as Davis sits

Wilson is in line for another game as New York's clear No. 1 wide receiver with Corey Davis (knee) having been ruled out for a third straight game, Ethan Greenberg and John Pullano of the Jets' official site report.

Analysis: Wilson has thrived since Davis went down, racking up 115 receiving yards Week 8 and 99 total yards Week 9 prior to the Jets' Week 10 bye. The 115-yard game came against the Patriots, whom the rookie first-round pick will face again Sunday, this time on the road.

Eight catches in Week 9 win

Wilson caught eight of nine targets for 92 yards and added a seven-yard run in Sunday's 20-17 win over the Bills.

Analysis: No other Jet had more than 16 receiving yards, as Wilson monopolized opportunities in the passing game with his ability to get open and shiftiness after the catch. He made a rookie mistake when the ball came out of his hands as Wilson turned to run after pump faking on a trick play, but Wilson was able to dive on top of it and avoid disaster on a drive that culminated in James Robinson's go-ahead touchdown. Wilson has 207 receiving yards over the past two weeks, but he may cede some targets to…read more

Retaining WR1 role in Week 9

Wilson will continue serving as New York's No. 1 wide receiver Sunday against the Bills, as Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports that Corey Davis (knee) has been ruled out.

Analysis: Wilson thrived in the lead role with Davis sidelined for the team's Week 8 loss to the Patriots, notching a career-high 115 receiving yards. As heavy home underdogs against the AFC East rival Bills, the Jets could be forced into a pass-heavy game plan, which would further benefit Wilson's volume against a tough Buffalo secondary that could be getting cornerback Tre'Davious White (knee) back for this one.

Career-high 115 yards in Week 8

Wilson caught six of seven targets for a game-high 115 yards in Sunday's 22-17 loss to the Patriots.

Analysis: With Corey Davis (knee) sidelined, Wilson was the Jets' go-to wide receiver, but tight end Jack Conklin scored both of the team's touchdowns. Wilson's 54-yard catch in the first quarter set up a field goal for the game's first points, and the rookie first-round pick set a new career high in receiving yards. Wilson's chemistry with quarterback Zach Wilson continues to improve heading into a Week 9 clash with the Bills.

Team's clear WR1 in Week 8

Antwan Staley of the New York Daily News expects the Jets to rely more on Wilson against the Patriots on Sunday with Corey Davis (knee) sidelined.

Analysis: Wilson leads the Jets in catches (28) and targets (52), but Davis is the team leader in receiving yards with 351 entering Week 8. The two share the team lead in receiving touchdowns with two apiece. With Davis sidelined, Elijah Moore, Braxton Berrios and Denzel Mims could all see more targets behind Wilson as well.

Four catches in Week 7

Wilson caught four of five targets for 24 yards in Sunday's 16-9 win over Denver.

Analysis: Elijah Moore (personal) didn't play and Corey Davis left early due to a sprained MCL, allowing cornerback Patrick Surtain and the Denver defense to focus on Wilson, especially after running back Breece Hall (knee) exited. Wilson has been quiet during the Jets' four-game winning streak, but New York could be forced into a more pass-heavy approach in Hall's absence, which may lead to more targets for Wilson in Week 8 against the Patriots.

Only one catch

Wilson caught one of five targets for eight yards in Sunday's 27-10 win over the Packers.

Analysis: Wilson struggled to make an impact against a talented group of Packers cornerbacks. While his output comfortably marked a career low, the rookie saw quarterback Zach Wilson pass for merely 110 yards overall Sunday. The first-round wideout and the Jets will look to make a bigger impact through the air in Week 7 versus the Broncos.

Three catches in Week 5 win

Wilson caught three of four targets for 27 yards in Sunday's 40-17 win over the Dolphins.

Analysis: Wilson was quiet for the second time in as many Zach Wilson starts at quarterback, though that was the case for all of New York's wide receivers in this one, as the Jets trampled Miami with five rushing touchdowns. The rookie first-round pick could benefit from a more pass-heavy game script in Week 6 against the Packers, but Wilson's usage will likely continue to ebb and flow in a New York offense with a lot of mouths to feed.

Quiet with Zach Wilson under center

Wilson caught two of six targets for 41 yards in Sunday's 24-20 win over the Steelers.

Analysis: Quarterback Zach Wilson made his return from a knee injury and featured familiar targets Corey Davis (74 yards, one touchdown) and Elijah Moore (53 yards) over the rookie first-round pick. Wilson the receiver still made an impact by helping to set up the first of New York's two fourth-quarter touchdowns with a 35-yard catch, but he'll look to improve his chemistry with the other Wilson -- no relation -- in Week 5 against the Dolphins.

Six catches in Week 3

Wilson caught six of 10 targets for 60 yards in Sunday's 27-12 loss to the Bengals.

Analysis: Wilson set up a field goal with a 23-yard catch on the Jets' first drive but left the game early in the second quarter after taking a shot to the ribs. The rookie first-round pick was rolling around in pain after the play but managed to return to the game in the second half and finished second on the team in receiving yards behind tight end Tyler Conklin (84). Wilson has been the favorite target for veteran Joe Flacco, but it remains to be seen how his fantasy outlook will be affected by the…read more

Back in action Sunday

Wilson (ribs) has returned to Sunday's game against the Bengals, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.

Analysis: Wilson caught all four of his targets for 46 yards before leaving the contest in the first half, but he came out of halftime ready to go. He'll look to continue his strong game in the second half.

Injures ribs Sunday

Wilson was forced out of Sunday's game against the Bengals with a rib injury.

Analysis: Prior to leaving the game, Wilson caught all for of his targets for 46 yards. In his absence, Elijah Moore and Corey Davis are in line to head the Jets' Week 3 WR corps.

Caps breakout game with winning TD

Wilson caught eight of 14 targets for 102 yards and two touchdowns in Sunday's 31-30 win over the Browns. He also rushed once for minus-2 yards.

Analysis: Wilson tied the game at seven with his first NFL touchdown in the second quarter, scoring from two yards out. He stayed down clutching his back after an awkward landing in the second half, but he promptly returned to the game and continued adding to his breakout performance. Wilson led the Jets in catches, targets and receiving yards, but he saved his biggest play for last, scoring the game-winning 15-yard touchdown over the middle in the final minute. The rookie first-round pick has quickly…read more

Tops 50 yards in NFL debut

Wilson caught four of eight targets for 52 yards in Sunday's 24-9 loss to the Ravens.

Analysis: Wilson finished second behind Corey Davis (77) in receiving yards, totaling three more than Elijah Moore. Each of New York's top three wide receivers were heavily involved in the game plan, which should continue to be the case moving forward. Joe Flacco's expected to start under center again in Week 2 against the Browns after filling in for Zach Wilson (knee) against Baltimore.

Finishes up modest preseason

Wilson caught one of two targets for 12 yards in Sunday's 31-27 preseason win over the Giants.

Analysis: Wilson didn't have the eye-popping preseason enjoyed by some other rookie wide receivers, but the 10th overall pick in the 2022 NFL Draft should contribute right away when the games start to count. The Jets' Shanahan-style offensive system requires extreme precision and knowledge of the offense from its receivers, so Wilson likely was focusing more on executing the little details than racking up numbers throughout the preseason.

Gets work in early

Wilson recorded three receptions for 15 yards in Monday's preseason win over the Falcons.

Analysis: Wilson recorded all of his catches within the first two offensive possessions. All of his receptions came near the line of scrimmage, though he did make a nice contested catch that also was off-target for a modest gain. Wilson figures to have a locked-in role among the Jets' top three receivers in his rookie season, likely playing outside opposite Corey Davis with Elijah Moore working out of the slot.
