Coach optimistic about 2025 return
Head coach Aaron Glenn said Friday that he thinks Wilson (knee) will play again in 2025, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Wilson was placed on IR prior to Thursday's loss to the Patriots. He will sit out a minimum of three more games, so the earliest Wilson could return would be Week 15 against the Jaguars. It's encouraging for Wilson's fantasy managers that the Jets haven't committed to shutting their top receiver down for the season, even though the Jets are out of the playoff hunt at 2-8.

Lands on IR
Wilson (knee) has been placed on IR by the Jets.
Analysis: Wilson thus is slated to miss at least the Jets' next four games, meaning that he won't be eligible to play again before Sunday, Dec. 14 against the Jaguars. In Wilson's absence, Adonai Mitchell, Arian Smith, Tyler Johnson, Isaiah Williams, John Metchie and Allen Lazard are slated to handle the team's WR duties.

Multi-week absence expected
Wilson (knee) is expected to miss multiple weeks and could be a candidate for injured reserve, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: Wilson injured his knee in Week 6 against the Broncos and aggravated the injury in the Jets' Week 10 win over the Browns. If placed on injured reserve, Wilson won't be eligible to return prior to Week 15 against the Jaguars. Even if he avoids an IR stint, Wilson could miss multiple games beyond Thursday's game against the Patriots, for which he has already been ruled out. Josh Reynolds (hip) is eligible to return from injured reserve in Week 13 against the Falcons and started opposite Wilson…read more

Ruled out for TNF
Wilson (knee) has been ruled out for Thursday's game at New England.
Analysis: Wilson didn't practice at all this week, with reports suggesting he'll likely miss 3-to-4 games after re-injuring his knee during Sunday's win over Cleveland. Arian Smith, Tyler Johnson and Isaiah Williams got the most playing time among the other Jets' WRs on Sunday, but Adonai Mitchell and John Metchie could take on larger roles in the coming weeks.

Expected to miss 3-to-4 weeks
Wilson is expected to be sidelined 3-to-4 weeks due to a knee sprain sustained during Sunday's 27-20 win over the Browns, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Wilson underwent an MRI on Monday, and it's at least encouraging that his knee injury won't require surgery or a long-term stint on the sideline. That said, Wilson had missed the Jets' prior two games before briefly returning to action Week 10, and he now looks set to sit out until Week 14 against the Dolphins at the earliest. Assuming Wilson is indeed officially ruled out for Thursday's game against the Patriots, whomever of Justin Fields or Tyrod Taylor is named the starting quarterback will…read more

Being evaluated, getting MRI
Jets coach Aaron Glenn said Monday that Wilson (knee) is still having his injury evaluated and will undergo an MRI, Al Iannazzone of Newsday reports.
Analysis: Wilson returned to action Week 10 despite being initially listed as questionable with a knee injury that had sidelined him since Week 6. It's unclear whether his current knee issue is an aggravation or a new occurrence, but testing on the Jets' No. 1 wideout's knee should provide some clarity. Wilson did not secure any of his three targets before exiting versus Cleveland, and at this stage his status has to be considered up in the air for Thursday's divisional contest against the Patriots. Per…read more

Won't return Sunday
Wilson (knee) won't return to Sunday's game against the Browns, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Prior to his exit from the contest, Wilson didn't log a catch on three targets. The wideout approached Week 10 action listed as questionable due to a knee injury, but at this stage it's unclear if if his current issue is a setback related to that, or a new injury.

Returning from two-game absence
Wilson (knee) is active for Sunday's game against the Browns.
Analysis: Though Wilson ended up taking a questionable tag into the weekend, he never seemed to be at much risk of missing a third straight game coming out of the Jets' Week 9 bye after he turned in limited practices Wednesday and Thursday before upgrading to full activity Friday. Wilson isn't expected to face any restrictions Sunday and should step back in as the No. 1 target for quarterback Justin Fields, who is set to continue directing the offense in Week 10, despite head coach Aaron Glenn electing…read more

Tracking toward playing Sunday
Wilson (knee) remains listed as questionable but is expected to play Sunday against the Browns, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Analysis: Rich Cimini of ESPN.com had already reported Friday that Wilson was on track to suit up Week 10, so Schefter's report adds further credence to the belief that the wideout will return to the lineup after missing the previous two contests prior to the Jets' Week 9 bye. Wilson draws a difficult matchup against a tough Browns defense, but he has dominated the passing-game targets when available, which cements his status as a quality fantasy starter.

Questionable but expected to play
Wilson (knee) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Browns, but he's expected to play, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Wilson upgraded to full practice participation Friday after a pair of limited sessions Wednesday and Thursday. He didn't quite work his way off the injury report completely, but the star wide receiver is poised to return for his first action since Week 6. The Jets haven't declared a starting quarterback between Justin Fields and Tyrod Taylor, though Fields is the presumptive starter. Wilson has caught 36 of 56 targets for 395 yards and four touchdowns across six appearances this season.

Limited in return to practice
Wilson (knee) was limited at practice Wednesday, Mary Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.
Analysis: Wilson hasn't played since suffering a hyperextended knee during Week 6 action, but the wideout's return to practice -- albeit in a limited capacity -- following the Jets' bye has him trending in the right direction ahead of Sunday's game against the Browns. Wilson now has two more chances to upgrade his participation level before the Jets post their Week 10 injury designations Friday.

Wilson (knee) is practicing Wednesday, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Wilson didn't practice or play in Week 8, but he seems to be doing much better after a Week 9 bye. The Jets will face a tough Cleveland defense at the Meadowlands this Sunday, with Justin Fields likely starting at quarterback, though head coach Aaron Glenn has thus far declined to name his starter. QB Tyrod Taylor (knee) is also expected to practice this week.

Ready to practice again
Jets head coach Aaron Glenn said that Wilson (knee) will resume practicing this week, Brian Costello of the New York Post reports.
Analysis: The hyperextended knee that Wilson sustained late in an Oct. 12 loss to the Broncos kept him from practicing ahead of each of the Jets' last two games, but the star wideout appears to be gearing up for a return to the field following his team's Week 9 bye. Before deciding on Wilson's status for Sunday's game versus the Browns, the Jets' coaching and training staffs will likely assess how the receiver's knee responds to his first practice activity in three weeks.

Won't play Sunday
Coach Aaron Glenn noted Friday that Wilson (knee) will be out for Sunday's game against the Bengals.
Analysis: With the Jets on bye Week 9, the star wideout's next chance to see game action will occur Sunday, Nov. 9 versus the Browns. In Wilson's continued absence, Josh Reynolds, Arian Smith and Allen Lazard are on track to lead the Jets' receiving corps versus Cincinnati, though the team's Week 8 starting QB has yet to be revealed by Glenn.

Not seen at practice Thursday
Wilson (knee) wasn't spotted on the field at Thursday's practice, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Wilson suffered a hyperextended knee late in the Jets' Week 6 loss to the Broncos in London and hasn't practiced since then. The star wideout thus has one more chance to get some work in before the Jets assign injury designations ahead of Sunday's game against the Bengals. If Wilson remains out this weekend, Josh Reynolds, Arian Smith and Allen Lazard would continue to lead the team's receiving corps.

Still not practicing
Wilson (knee) didn't practice Wednesday, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Wilson logged three straight DNPs last week before being ruled out for Week 7 action, and he'll now have two more chances to practice ahead of Sunday's game against the Bengals. The Jets view their star wideout as day-to-day, but if Wilson is unable to return to action this weekend, Josh Reynolds, Arian Smith and Allen Lazard would continue to see added WR reps in Week 8.

Viewed as day-to-day
Wilson (knee) is considered day-to-day ahead of Sunday's game against the Bengals, Eric Allen of the Jets' official site reports.
Analysis: Wilson, who approached Week 7 action with a doubtful designation, was predictably inactive for the Jets' loss to the Panthers, but as the wideout distances himself from the hyperextended knee he sustained in Week 6, it's possible he could rejoin the mix this weekend. A return to practice in the coming days, in any capacity, would support that notion after Wilson logged three straight DNPs last week.

Wilson (knee) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Panthers.
Analysis: Wilson, who leads the Jets with 56 targets through six games, suffered a hyperextended knee last weekend and was unable to practice Wednesday through Friday before being designated as doubtful for Sunday's contest. Now that he's been made inactive, Josh Reynolds will likely work as the Jets' top wide receiver versus Carolina, with Arian Smith, Allen Lazard, Tyler Johnson and Isaiah Williams also in the mix for added opportunities at the position.

Wilson (knee) will be listed as doubtful for Sunday's game against the Panthers, Jets coach Aaron Glenn revealed Friday, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Wilson's doubtful designation isn't surprising given previous reports that he was likely to miss a couple weeks due to the knee injury he sustained in the Week 6 loss to Denver. The star wide receiver didn't practice during the Jets' preparation for Sunday's game against the Panthers.

Could miss a couple of weeks
An MRI revealed that Wilson suffered a hyperextended knee Sunday, with the wideout reportedly expected to miss a couple of weeks, according to Adam Schefter of ESPN.
Analysis: Confirmation from the team has yet to come, but at a minimum it looks like the Jets are in line to be without their top pass catcher this weekend against the Panthers. If that's the case, Josh Reynolds, Arian Smith, Allen Lazard (personal) and Tyler Johnson would be candidates to see added WR reps in Wilson's absence.

Appears to avoid serious injury
Wilson (knee) underwent an MRI on Monday and appears to have avoided a serious injury, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: However, Wilson is potentially looking at some time on the sideline, according to Cimini. The star wideout played through the injury during Sunday's 13-11 loss to the Broncos in London, but now that the adrenaline has worn off, Wilson could miss some game action.

Analysis: Wilson is slated to undergo an MRI after having sustained a knee injury during Sunday's 13-11 loss to the Broncos in London in which he logged just three catches for 13 yards on eight targets. He received an X-ray after the contest, though it appears further evaluation will be necessary to fully diagnose the severity of his injury.

Injures knee Sunday
Wilson suffered a knee injury during Sunday's 13-11 loss to the Broncos, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Cimini notes that it was previously thought that Wilson was dealing with a hip issue, but the star pass catcher apparently sustained a knee injury Sunday, and is slated to undergo an MRI. Per Cimini, it doesn't appear to be an ACL injury for Wilson, but the wideout's status is nonetheless worth monitoring closely ahead of next weekend's game against the Panthers.

Jets head coach Aaron Glenn said after Sunday's 13-11 loss to the Broncos in London that Wilson sustained a hip injury during the contest, Brian Costello of the New York Post reports. Wilson finished the day with three catches for 13 yards on eight targets.
Analysis: Wilson didn't miss extensive time at any point in the contest, though Connor Hughes of SNY.tv noted that the receiver looked to be banged up following an incomplete pass on second down on the Jets' penultimate possession. Wilson stayed on the sideline for a third-and-10 play, but he was back on the field for the team's final drive of the day.

Stretches for late TD in loss
Wilson caught six of 10 targets for 71 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 37-22 loss to the Cowboys.
Analysis: Rookie tight end Mason Taylor actually led the Jets in targets with 12 and catches with nine, but Wilson once again paced the team in receiving yards and was on the other end of Justin Fields' second TD toss of the afternoon on New York's final possession. While he has yet to hit 100 yards in a game this season, Wilson will take an impressive 33-382-4 line on 48 targets into a Week 6 tilt with Patrick Surtain and the Broncos' stingy secondary.

Makes spectacular TD grab in loss
Wilson hauled in six of eight targets for 82 yards and a touchdown in Monday's 27-21 loss to Miami.
Analysis: Wilson welcomed back QB Justin Fields (concussion) with open arms after the duo connected in the end zone for the second time this season (third overall for Wilson). The star wideout scored in spectacular fashion when he caught a high-point pass through a defender's arm while barely dragging both of his feet in bounds. He did have a second potential score erased by an offensive pass interference penalty. Wilson is now up to 311 yards and three touchdowns through four starts as the Jets continue…read more

Gets into end zone in Week 3
Wilson caught 10 of 13 targets for 84 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 29-27 loss to the Buccaneers.
Analysis: Despite having Tyrod Taylor under center instead of Justin Fields (concussion), Wilson was still the clear top downfield option for the Jets, as none of his teammates saw more than six targets or caught more than four passes, and his 11-yard TD catch from Taylor early in the fourth quarter kicked off an attempted comeback from a 23-6 deficit by New York. Wilson will take a 21-229-2 line on 30 targets into a Week 4 meeting with the Dolphins.

Analysis: Wilson put the Jets in front with a 33-yard touchdown catch in the first quarter, and he came two yards from the end zone again on a 21-yard catch in the third, leading to a Justin Fields rushing score on the next play. He was the clear top option in the passing game, as Breece Hall was a distant second in both targets (four) and receiving yards (38), but Wilson will regret his inability to hold onto the ball on the Jets' final offensive play, as Jalen Ramsey dislodged the ball from his hands…read more

Remains without catch in preseason
Wilson didn't gather in any of his three targets during Saturday's 31-12 preseason defeat to the Giants.
Analysis: Wilson has yet to record a catch on four passes from new QB Justin Fields through two exhibitions, but the former's standing as the unquestioned No. 1 option in the Jets' passing game isn't in question. Once Week 1 rolls around, Wilson should be good for the typical 9.2 targets per game that he's averaged through three pro campaigns, all of which have resulted in 1,000-yard seasons.

Brief cameo in preseason opener
Wilson didn't catch his only target in Saturday's 30-10 preseason win over the Packers.
Analysis: Wilson wasn't on the field for long, and while the only pass directed his way from quarterback Justin Fields fell incomplete, the starting offense still managed to produce a touchdown on Fields' and Wilson's only drive of the game. After signing a four-year, $130 million extension in July, Wilson's locked in atop the Jets' wide receiver depth chart.

The Jets signed Wilson to a four-year, $130 million contract extension Monday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Analysis: The deal contains $90 million guaranteed and locks Wilson up with the Jets through the 2030 season. New York had two more seasons of contractual control with Wilson, but the sides are getting the long-term deal out of the way early. Wilson turns 25 years old next week and has produced three consecutive 1,000-yard seasons since the Jets used the No. 10 overall pick on the wideout out of Ohio State in the 2022 Draft.

Present for minicamp
Wilson is attending the first day of mandatory minicamp Tuesday, Al Iannazzone of Newsday reports.
Analysis: The wideout is seeking a contract extension after the Jets exercised his fifth-year option in April, but there have been no signs that he'll skip any team activities as a negotiating tactic. Now heading into his age-25 season, Wilson will spend the offseason working to build chemistry with Justin Fields, the third time in four seasons he's had a new starting quarterback to begin the campaign.

To get fifth-year option
Jets GM Darren Mougey said Monday that he plans to exercise the fifth-year option on Wilson's rookie contract, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: Wilson's rookie contract will now run through 2026, with a fifth-year option for the final season projected at $16.8 million. He's likely still hoping for an extension this offseason after starting his career with three straight 1,000-yard campaigns as a high-volume target in bad offenses.

Set to be WR1 for team's new QB
Wilson is set to operate as the top wide receiver in 2025 for new Jets quarterback Justin Fields, with whom the team agreed to a two-year, $40 million contract, per Dianna Russini and Zack Rosenblatt of The Athletic.
Analysis: In addition to signing Fields, the Jets have parted ways with Aaron Rodgers and Davante Adams, the latter of whom cut into Wilson's target share significantly after being acquired in a midseason trade with Vegas last season. The mobile Fields isn't considered a particularly proficient passer, but the biggest knock on him has been his failure to get off his first read, and Wilson figures to be that top read frequently in a Jets offense that could still bolster its receiving corps via free agency…read more

Quietly posts career year
Wilson caught four of five targets for 51 yards and rushed once for no gain in Sunday's 32-20 win over the Dolphins. He finishes the 2024 season with 101 catches for 1,104 receiving yards and seven touchdowns on 154 targets.
Analysis: Wilson didn't account for any of Aaron Rodgers' four touchdown passes, but the third of their four connections accounted for Wilson's 100th catch of the season. In addition to setting a new career high in receptions, Wilson exceeded his previous career high by one receiving yard. Wilson's seven receiving scores matched his combined total from 2022 and 2023, so Wilson made incremental improvements despite the Jets' inconsistency on offense.

Wilson caught seven of eight targets for 66 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 40-14 loss to the Bills.
Analysis: Wilson accounted for 42 of Aaron Rodgers' 66 first-half passing yards as the Jets continued to struggle on offense. The wideout lost a fumble in the third quarter but rebounded in the fourth, helping the Jets avoid a shutout loss by catching a nine-yard touchdown pass from Tyrod Taylor with 6:59 remaining.

Well behind Adams again
Wilson caught six of seven targets for 54 yards in Sunday's 19-9 loss to the Rams.
Analysis: Wilson was limited to just one catch for 15 yards in the first half while Davante Adams led the team with five catches for 52 yards and a touchdown. The script flipped to a degree after halftime, as Wilson out-gained Adams, 39-16. Wilson has been the No. 2 option in the passing game rather than the co-No. 1 in recent weeks, so he'll be a less trustworthy fantasy option than Adams in Week 17 against the Bills.

Analysis: Wilson posted his lowest receiving yardage total of the season and has just 59 yards over his last two games combined after averaging 94.4 over the previous five games. Aaron Rodgers hasn't been nearly as much of an upgrade under center as the Jets anticipated, but Wilson has still benefited from the change. Heading into the Jets' Week 12 bye, Wilson has already set a career high with five receiving touchdowns, and he's on pace for 1,116 receiving yards this season, which would narrowly set a…read more

Leading receiver in blowout loss
Wilson brought in five of six targets for 41 yards in Sunday's 31-6 loss to Arizona.
Analysis: Davante Adams (6-31-0) led the Jets with 13 targets Sunday, but Wilson finished with the most receiving yards for New York on a far more efficient stat line. Both star wideouts suffered from poor play under center by Aaron Rodgers, resulting in mediocre fantasy outputs for the entire receiving corps. Wilson is an elite talent who can only produce as well as his quarterback gets him the ball. Managers of the wideout are hoping the Jets' offense wakes back up against the Colts next Sunday.

Pair of TD grabs in win
Wilson secured nine of 10 targets for 90 yards and two touchdowns in the Jets' 21-13 win over the Texans on Thursday.
Analysis: Wilson paced the Jets in receptions and was just a yard and target short of tying Davante Adams for the team lead in those categories as well. The third-year receiver also made what is arguably the catch of the season thus far, snaring an Aaron Rodgers floater one-handed in the back of the end zone and somehow dragging his shin in the end zone for a 26-yard touchdown early in the fourth quarter that was affirmed via replay. Wilson benefited from Adams' exit for a spell during the second half…read more

Leading receiver in Week 8 loss
Wilson caught five of eight targets for 113 yards in Sunday's 25-22 loss to the Patriots.
Analysis: Wilson's 27-yard catch down to the one-yard line in the second quarter set up Xavier Gipson's go-ahead touchdown catch on the next play. Wilson added a 26-yard catch later in the second quarter and a 35-yard grab in the third quarter to easily lead the Jets in receiving yards. Davante Adams was a distant second with 54 receiving yards. Wilson has caught 10 of 17 targets for 174 yards in two games since Adams' arrival, so Wilson maintains a prominent role heading into Thursday's home game…read more

Ties Adams for team targets lead
Wilson caught five of nine targets for 61 yards and caught a two-point conversion in Sunday's 37-15 loss to the Steelers.
Analysis: Wilson's first game after the arrival of trade acquisition Davante Adams was a mixed bag. Wilson caught a two-point conversion to put the Jets up 15-6 in the second quarter, but he was the intended receiver on both of Aaron Rodgers' interceptions during Pittsburgh's ensuing 31-0 run, with the second of those bouncing off Wilson's chest and right to a defender. The two big-name wide receivers had nine targets apiece in Sunday's loss, suggesting they are capable of co-existing, and Wilson posted…read more

Faces new competition for targets
Wilson could see his target share take a hit after the Jets acquired Davante Adams (hamstring) from Las Vegas on Tuesday, Lucas Hutcherson of SNY.tv reports.
Analysis: Wilson has been the clear top wideout through his first two-plus seasons in New York, and he turned in 1,000-yard receiving campaigns in 2022 and 2023 despite substandard quarterback play. After a slow first four games of the 2024 season with four-time MVP Aaron Rodgers under center, Wilson has gotten in sync with the veteran signal-caller and has hauled in 21 of 33 targets for 208 yards and two touchdowns over the last two contests. Though he should continue to see a substantial role, the…read more

Back-to-back games over 100 yards
Wilson caught eight of 10 targets for 107 yards and a touchdown in Monday's 23-20 loss to the Bills.
Analysis: Wilson put the Jets up 10-7 with a five-yard touchdown catch in the first quarter, but that turned out to be New York's last lead of the game. He has exceeded 100 receiving yards in consecutive games after averaging 47.8 receiving yards in Weeks 1-4, so Wilson's trending up ahead of a Week 7 trip to Pittsburgh for Sunday Night Football. Wilson also has scored a touchdown in three of the last four games as he continues to improve his chemistry with Aaron Rodgers.

Racks up 13 catches in loss
Wilson recorded 13 receptions on 22 targets for 101 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 23-17 loss to the Vikings.
Analysis: Wilson benefitted from the Jets falling behind 17-0 before halftime and impressively drew 22 of the team's 51 targets. That was the primary reason for optimism in the performance, as he still struggled to pair up efficiently with Aaron Rodgers by averaging only 4.6 yards per target. Despite that concerning sign, Wilson's productivity in this game was positive, headlined by his second touchdown and first 100-yard effort of the campaign.

Slow start continues
Wilson caught five of eight targets for 41 yards and lost a fumble in Sunday's 10-9 loss to the Broncos.
Analysis: Wilson fumbled at the end of a seven-yard catch on New York's opening drive and wasn't targeted again in the first half. He was more involved after halftime, but Wilson notably failed to get on the same page with Aaron Rodgers on a key pass that would have put the Jets into field-goal range on the team's penultimate possession.

Records touchdown in Week 3 win
Wilson brought in five of nine targets for 33 yards and a touchdown in the Jets' 24-3 win over the Patriots on Thursday night.
Analysis: Wilson tied Tyler Conklin for the team lead in receptions while setting the pace in targets. The third-year receiver's scoring grab was his long-awaited first in conjunction with Aaron Rodgers and came from two yards out with just over six minutes remaining in the third quarter. The Jets' air attack saw eight different players record receptions Thursday, but Wilson remains its clear No. 1 option heading into a Week 4 home battle against the Broncos on Sunday, Sept. 29.

Wilson caught four of six targets for 57 yards and added a five-yard run in Sunday's 24-17 win over the Titans.
Analysis: Wilson led the Jets in receiving yards as Aaron Rodgers threw for just 176 yards, while running backs Breece Hall and Braelon Allen combined to score all three of the team's touchdowns. A substantial step forward with Rodgers under center has yet to materialize for Wilson after the 2022 first-round draft pick overcame subpar quarterback play to begin his career with a pair of 1,000-yard seasons, but Thursday's home game against a Patriots secondary that just got burned for 129 yards and a…read more

Allen Lazard led the Jets' passing game with 89 yards and two touchdown catches in the second half, while Wilson remained stuck in first gear.

No appearances in preseason
Wilson did not play in Saturday's 10-6 preseason win over the Giants.
Analysis: Along with other key starters for the Jets, Wilson did not suit up at all during the exhibition season. Through two seasons as a pro, Wilson has shown an elite ability to draw targets, but quarterback play has held back his production. That shouldn't be an issue in 2024 assuming Aaron Rodgers can stay healthy, as Wilson will once again operate as the Jets' clear top pass-catching option.

Wilson is one of the 31 Jets not expected to dress for Saturday's preseason game at Carolina, Randy Lange of NYJets.com reports.
Analysis: The Jets will hold out most of their veteran starters and top backups, allowing rookies and roster-bubble players to handle most of the snaps. The list of players not expected to be in uniform includes QBs Aaron Rodgers and Tyrod Taylor, RB Breece Hall, WRs Xavier Gipson, Allen Lazard and Malik Taylor and TEs Tyler Conklin and Jeremy Ruckert. The team also held Wilson out of its first preseason game and may not play him until Week 1.

Wilson is not expected to play in the team's preseason opener against the Commanders on Saturday.

The wideout underwent an evaluation for a concussion and was diagnosed with a neck issue. It doesn't sound like he's dealing with anything significant, and Wilson should have a normal offseason after catching 95 passes for 1,042 yards and three touchdowns this season.

Wilson cleared concussion protocol but exited Sunday's 17-3 win over the Patriots with a neck injury, Brian Costello of the New York Post reports. He caught two of five targets for 34 yards, bringing his season totals to 95 catches for 1,042 yards and three touchdowns on 168 targets.
Analysis: Wilson dressed in all 17 games for the second consecutive season, but the 2022 first-round draft pick took a modest step back after racking up 1,103 yards and four touchdowns as a rookie. Poor quarterback play once again held Wilson back, as Aaron Rodgers tore his Achilles just four plays into the season, paving the way for a combination of Zach Wilson, Tim Boyle and Trevor Siemian to share the workload under center for the Jets.

Modest numbers in Week 17 loss
Wilson brought in five of 10 targets for 50 yards in the Jets' 37-20 loss to the Browns on Thursday night. He also netted minus-1 yard on his only carry.
Analysis: Wilson led the Jets in receiving yards and targets, although that didn't add up to much in terms of fantasy production. The talented receiver was once again the victim of a heavy dose of dink-and-dunk passing by Trevor Siemian, who averaged only 5.8 yards per attempt.

He got going again coming out of halftime, catching three passes for 55 yards on the first drive of the second half to set up a 15-yard Randall Cobb touchdown.

Analysis: Wilson nearly matched his yardage total from his previous contest despite seeing half as many targets Sunday. The talented wideout finished second in receiving yards for the Jets, as Breece Hall (22-177-1) and the team's defense did the heavy lifting in the win. Wilson's upside continues to be limited by the loss of his starting quarterback in Week 1, but he remains relevant heading into next Sunday's tilt against the Eagles so long as current starter Zach Wilson continues feeding him the ball.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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).

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.

Tallies 25 yards in preseason debut
Wilson recorded two receptions on three targets for 25 yards in Friday's 24-21 preseason win over the Eagles.
Analysis: Wilson was targeted on Zach Wilson's (knee) first dropback of the game, though the pass fell incomplete. He remained on the field for a total of three possessions and tallied gains of 15 and 10 yards on his two receptions. Wilson is expected to have a prominent role in the Jets' offense during his rookie season, though Elijah Moore may have the upper hand as the team's top wideout early on.
