Finds end zone again in Week 15
Wilson caught five of 11 targets for 54 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 40-20 loss to the Texans.
Analysis: Once again, Wilson was one of Jacoby Brissett's favorite downfield options in a blowout loss. Marvin Harrison has missed four of the last five games due to appendicitis and a heel injury, and in all four of those contests Wilson has seen double-digit targets, posting a massive 41-499-3 line on 60 targets during Harrison's absences. Harrison is expected to return before the end of the year, but if he's out again in Week 16 versus the Falcons, Wilson will be a must-start fantasy asset.

Positioned as WR1 for Week 15
Wilson will operate as Arizona's top wide receiver versus the Texans on Sunday, with Marvin Harrison (heel) ruled out, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.
Analysis: Wilson has dominated across the three games Harrison has missed since Week 11, finishing with double-digit catches and over 100 yards receiving in all three of those contests. Versus the Rams in Week 14, Wilson tallied a 11-142-2 line on 16 targets, with almost all of quarterback Jacoby Brissett's production being split between himself and tight end Trey McBride. While Wilson now faces a rough road matchup against Houston, Wilson seems assured of massive target volume for as long as Harrison is…read more

Thriving in No. 1 receiver role
Wilson corralled 11 of 16 targets for 142 yards and two touchdowns in Sunday's 45-17 loss to the Rams.
Analysis: Wilson resumed the top wideout role for Arizona with Marvin Harrison (heel) back on the sidelines, and the results were the same as we saw in Weeks 11 and 12. The 25-year-old Wilson elevated his game for the third time in Harrison's absence, finishing with double-digit receptions in all three contests. Wilson completed the fantasy explosion with a pair of trips to the end zone, doubling the season total he entered Sunday's loss with. Harrison's Week 15 status is still uncertain, but Wilson…read more

Heads injury-riddled WR corps again
Wilson's teammates Marvin Harrison (heel) and Greg Dortch (chest) have been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Rams.
Analysis: Wilson and Dortch both enjoyed spikes in production during Harrison's two-game absence, followed by steep declines in both targets and fantasy points when Harrison returned for last Sunday's 20-17 loss at Tampa Bay. With Harrison now out again, and Dortch joining him this time, the Cardinals are painfully thin at wide receiver behind Wilson. Even Xavier Weaver (questionable - hamstring) may not end up playing, in which case Andre Baccellia and various practice-squad promotions would be the…read more

Targets plummet in Harrison return
Wilson secured three of seven targets for 36 yards in the Cardinals' 20-17 loss to the Buccaneers on Sunday.
Analysis: Wilson had seen nearly a season's worth of work in the last two games with Marvin Harrison sitting out due to an appendectomy, with the former producing a 25-303-0 line on 33 targets. However, the third-year pro unsurprisingly saw a noteworthy reduction in opportunities with Harrison's return, although his target tally did tie for his highest of the season outside of the aforementioned pair of contests. Wilson likely will remain in a clear complementary role moving forward for as long as…read more

Getting Harrison back in WR mix
Wilson will have additional competition for WR reps during Sunday's game in Tampa Bay with Marvin Harrison (appendix) active and back in the lineup.
Analysis: Wilson has been a monster for fantasy purposes during Harrison's two-game absence after the latter underwent an appendectomy, putting together a 25-303-0 line on 33 targets during that stretch. Prior to his run as the Cardinals' No. 1 WR, Wilson had a 22-231-1 line on 38 targets in the first nine contests of the campaign, so the presence of Harrison likely means he'll settle somewhere between those workloads Sunday. Having said that, the Buccaneers defense has been giving up chunk plays to wide…read more

Continues to thrive as No. 1 WR
Wilson hauled in 10 of 15 targets for 118 yards in Sunday's 27-24 overtime loss to Jacksonville.
Analysis: Wilson is taking full advantage of teammate Marvin Harrison's (appendix) continued absence, with the former producing his second 100-plus yard performance in his second game operating as Arizona's top wideout. The ascension of veteran backup Jacoby Brissett's game since taking over for Kyler Murray (foot) can also be attributed to Wilson's rapid rise in the fantasy ranks. It is unclear how long Harrison will remained sidelined while recovering from appendix surgery, but it has become clear that…read more

Set for another week as WR1
Wilson is positioned as the No. 1 wideout for Sunday's game against the Jaguars with Marvin Harrison (appendix) ruled out again, Theo Mackie of The Arizona Republic reports.
Analysis: Wilson enjoyed a career day with Harrison sidelined during the Cardinals' loss to the 49ers in Week 11, securing 15 of 18 targets for 185 yards with zero touchdowns. While it's unlikely Wilson manages to reprise similarly exuberant target volume from quarterback Jacoby Brissett, who attempted a tremendous 57 passes against San Francisco, double-digit looks wouldn't be out of the question versus Jacksonville. Until such time as Harrison retakes the field, Wilson will continue to benefit from…read more

Career performance in Week 11
Wilson reeled in 15 of 18 passes for 185 yards and no touchdowns during Sunday's 41-22 defeat to the 49ers.
Analysis: The Cardinals were quickly in catch-up mode Week 11, with QB Jacoby Brissett eventually attempting 57 passes and completing 47 of them to set a single-game NFL record in the latter category. Wilson was the biggest beneficiary in the absence of No. 1 WR Marvin Harrison (concussion), but it was difficult to project such an outburst from the former, as his previous single-game highs were eight catches, nine targets and 95 receiving yards through two-and-a-half years as a pro. A repeat performance…read more

Poised for WR1 role in short term
Wilson will take on the No. 1 WR role in the Cardinals offense for at least Sunday's game against the 49ers following Marvin Harrison's appendectomy Monday, Darren Urban of the team's official site reports.
Analysis: Wilson is in sole possession of third in most receiving categories among Arizona's skill-position players behind TE Trey McBride and Harrison. With Harrison's 6.9 targets per game now up for grabs for the foreseeable future, Wilson stands to benefit along with Greg Dortch, Xavier Weaver (ankle) and Andre Baccellia. Wilson has averaged 10.5 yards per catch and 6.1 yards per target this season, so even with the expected bump in volume he may not produce enough on game days to be a consideration…read more

Reels in three passes in Week 9
Wilson hauled in three of four targets for 61 yards during Monday's 27-17 win at Dallas.
Analysis: Fueled by a 50-yard catch and run at the start of the third quarter, Wilson set a new season high in receiving yards Monday, leaving him second among Cardinals in the category for Week 9. All three of his top results in yards have come during Jacoby Brissett's three games as the starting quarterback in place of Kyler Murray. Coach Jonathan Gannon has reiterated multiple times that Murray will resume directing Arizona's offense once he's recovered from his mid-foot sprain, but that doesn't…read more

Logs full practice Thursday
Wilson (foot) was a full practice participant Thursday
Analysis: One day removed from being limited at Wednesday's walkthrough due to a foot injury, Wilson logged every on-field rep, paving the way for him to be available Sunday against the Packers. The same can't be said for fellow WRs Marvin Harrison (concussion, limited) and Zay Jones (knee, DNP), who maintained their activity levels into Thursday. Wilson thus is the healthiest among the Cardinals' top three at the position, but there's also the question of who will be under center Week 7, as Kyler Murray…read more

Tending to foot issue
Wilson was limited at Wednesday's walkthrough due to a foot injury, Zach Gershman of the Cardinals' official site reports.
Analysis: Wilson made a brief exit from this past Sunday's loss in Indianapolis due to a finger injury but was able to finish out the contest en route to four catches (on five targets) for 44 yards. The reason for his practice limitations Wednesday thus is a new health concern that will need to be watched as the week continues. Aside from Wilson, Arizona's receiving corps is banged-up at the moment, as Marvin Harrison (concussion) also was limited Wednesday, while Zay Jones (knee) didn't take part at all.

Wilson brought in four of five targets for 44 yards in the Cardinals' 31-27 loss to the Colts on Sunday.
Analysis: Wilson stepped into a bigger role despite dealing with a finger injury, as Marvin Harrison exited the contest due to a concussion in the second quarter. Wilson's target total was his second highest of the season, while both his catch and yardage tallies represented new high-water marks on the campaign. The third-year wideout may also have benefitted from Jacoby Brissett being under center in place of Kyler Murray (foot), and that same arrangement may hold for a Week 7 home matchup against the…read more

Two catches in Week 5
Wilson caught two of four targets for 16 yards in Sunday's 22-21 loss to the Titans.
Analysis: Wilson's quiet start to the 2025 campaign continued Sunday, as the third-year wideout operated as the Cardinals' No. 2 receiver behind Marvin Harrison. Despite playing a solid 69 percent of Arizona's offensive snaps, Wilson was unable to get much going against the Titans. Through five weeks, the Stanford product has recorded just eight catches on 18 targets for 52 yards and a touchdown. Wilson remains difficult to trust for fantasy purposes heading into a Week 6 matchup against the Colts.

Season-high six targets
Wilson hauled in three of six targets for 15 yards during Thursday's 23-20 defeat to the Seahawks.
Analysis: Wilson earned a season-high 97 percent snap share Week 4, but he again didn't get much going within the confines of the Cardinals offense. His target count did mark a season best, but he now boasts a measly 6-36-1 line on 14 targets through four games. Until QB Kyler Murray begins to look his way more often, Wilson appears to be on the outside looking in when it comes to fantasy relevance.

Minimal involvement in loss
Wilson caught one of his two targets for five yards in Sunday's 16-15 loss to the 49ers.
Analysis: Wilson recorded just one reception for the third straight game, and he now has just three catches for 21 yards and a touchdown on eight targets to start the season. The third-year wideout is not getting enough of an opportunity within the Arizona offense to be considered for fantasy purposes with any type of confidence. Wilson will look to get more involved in Week 4 when the Cardinals host the Seahawks.

Hits pay dirt in win
Wilson caught one of two targets for 11 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 27-22 win over the Panthers.
Analysis: Wilson caught just one pass for a second-straight week, though his reception in Week 2 counted for his first score of the season. The third-year wideout played 38 of the Cardinals' 55 offensive snaps in the contest, behind only Marvin Harrison (51). Wilson is operating as Arizona's No. 2 wide receiver, but his lack of consistent usage makes him difficult to trust for fantasy purposes. The 25-year old will look to take a step forward in Week 3 when the Cardinals visit the 49ers.

Manages one catch in Week 1
Wilson gathered in one of four targets for five yards during Sunday's 20-13 win at New Orleans.
Analysis: Wilson was on the field for 44 of 66 offensive snaps (67 percent), but his 26 routes run yielded little, while top wide receiver Marvin Harrison's 32 routes resulted in a 5-71-1 line on six targets on an 89 percent snap share. At the same time, No. 3 WR Zay Jones (1-4-0) nearly matched Wilson's output on one target and a 47 percent share of plays. The Cardinals consolidate most of the targets among TE Trey McBride (nine on Sunday), Harrison and RB James Conner (four), so Wilson has his work cut…read more

Analysis: The Cardinals held out their key skill-position players, including wideouts Marvin Harrison, Wilson, Greg Dortch and Zay Jones. During the team's preseason opener against Kansas City, both Wilson (12 yards) and Harrison (15 yards) were on the receiving end of completions from Kyler Murray.

Ditches non-contact jersey
Wilson (concussion) practiced Thursday without a yellow non-contact jersey, Tyler Drake of ArizonaSports.com reports.
Analysis: For a second consecutive day, Wilson ran routes on air while hauling in passes, only this time he ditched the yellow jersey. He entered the concussion protocol after getting kneed in the helmet at last Friday's session, but he's clearly progressed enough to get back on the field and be eligible for contact. Considering QB Kyler Murray is in line to play in Saturday's preseason opener against the Chiefs, Wilson figures to do so as well, assuming all symptoms of his head injury are behind him.

Wearing non-contact jersey
Wilson (concussion) is participating in practice Wednesday while wearing a yellow non-contact jersey, Bo Brack of GoPHNX.com reports.
Analysis: Wilson is progressing through the NFL's concussion protocol, which he entered Friday after a collision with teammate Budda Baker. He'll need to gain full clearance before being eligible to appear in preseason action, making Wilson's status uncertain for Saturday's game against the Chiefs. Meanwhile, top wide receiver Marvin Harrison returned to practice Tuesday.

Analysis: Wilson had to leave practice early Friday after colliding with Budda Baker's right knee while trying to catch a pass. Head coach Jonathan Gannon said Saturday that Baker is fine, but Wilson won't be able to practice until he clears concussion protocol. That leaves Arizona without its top two wideouts at the moment, as Marvin Harrison Jr. will miss his third straight day of practice Saturday while battling a knee issue and an illness, per Cameron Cox of 12 Sports AZ.

Good to go for OTAs
Wilson (hamstring) is participating in Arizona's voluntary OTAs without any apparent restrictions, per the Cardinals' official site.
Analysis: Wilson missed Arizona's season finale in 2024 due to a hamstring injury, but he suited up for the team's other 16 regular-season games and secured 47 of 71 targets for 548 yards and four touchdowns. He also rushed once for seven yards. Despite drawing 13 more targets in Year 2, Wilson finished with a relatively similar receiving line to the 38 grabs for 565 yards and three scores he compiled as a rookie, due in large part to his yards per catch dropping from 14.9 to 11.7.

Sitting out season finale
Wilson (hamstring) is listed as inactive Sunday versus the 49ers, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.
Analysis: Wilson was a late-week addition to the Cardinals' practice report Friday as limited due to a hamstring injury. Such a development could have been worrisome for the second-year wide receiver, and indeed he won't be available to the offense Sunday. As a result, more targets have been freed up for the likes of Greg Dortch, Zay Jones, Zach Pascal and Xavier Weaver behind top WR Marvin Harrison.

Questionable for Sunday
Wilson is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the 49ers after being added to the injury report Friday with a hamstring injury, Bo Brack of GoPHNX.com reports.
Analysis: An end-of-week addition to the report isn't promising, and even more so because he's a wide receiver with a hamstring injury in Week 18 for a non-playoff team. It's possible the injury is minor enough that Wilson will play anyway, but the Cardinals may want to hold him back if it's a close call ahead of the 4:25 p.m. ET kickoff. A Week 18 absence for Wilson would leave more perimeter WR reps for Zay Jones, Zach Pascal and/or Xavier Weaver.

Four-catch effort in loss
Wilson brought in four of six targets for 22 yards in the Cardinals' 13-9 loss to the Rams on Saturday night.
Analysis: Wilson finished third in receptions and targets on the night behind Trey McBride and Marvin Harrison, but he was way behind his teammates' respective 123- and 96-yard tallies. It was another lackluster showing for Wilson, who hasn't eclipsed 57 receiving yards since Week 5 and has four or fewer receptions in seven of the last eight games. The second-year wideout will close out the season at home against the 49ers in Week 18.

Wilson had two receptions on five targets for 44 yards in Sunday's 36-30 overtime loss to Carolina.
Analysis: Wilson finished second in receiving yards despite catching just two passes for the Cardinals in a game during which no receiver went over 50 yards. The sophomore out of Stanford bounced back from last week's dud in which he registered just nine yards on the same amount of touches he saw Sunday. Wilson remains limited to deep-league value heading into Saturday's contest against the Rams.

Wilson has recorded multiple receptions in five consecutive contests, a span in which he's accrued a 14-199-1 line on 20 targets. He'll continue on in his modest role in the Cardinals' offense this coming Sunday at Carolina.

Wilson caught two of three targets for 57 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 30-18 loss to the Seahawks.
Analysis: Wilson capped Arizona's opening drive with a 41-yard touchdown catch but added only one reception the rest of the way. He has been a touchdown-dependent fantasy option all season, having reached 60 receiving yards only twice.

Murray still put up 37 passes, though, and Wilson was among three other Cardinals to earn at least four targets (Marvin Harrison had six, James Conner recorded five).

Analysis: In a game in which the Cardinals were having their way with the Bears on the ground, Wilson and his fellow pass catchers were on the receiving end of only 20 passes from QB Kyler Murray versus 34 carries overall as a team. As a result, Wilson didn't record a catch for the first time in nine contests this season, and his single target marked a campaign low.

Wilson caught one of three targets for 15 yards in Monday's 17-15 win over the Chargers.
Analysis: Wilson played 44 of the Cardinals 57 offensive snaps Monday, trailing Marvin Harrison (48) but well ahead of depth wideouts Greg Dortch (17), Zay Jones (11) and Zach Pascal (2). Despite his healthy snap share as the No. 2 wideout, the 24-year-old was unable to make much of an impact in Arizona's aerial attack. With the offense struggling to perform consistently from week to week, Wilson's fantasy utility continues to be inconsistent, as well.

Ready to play Monday
Wilson (ankle) does not carry an injury designation ahead of Monday's contest against the Chargers, Bo Brack of GoPHNX.com reports.
Analysis: Both Wilson and Marvin Harrison shed their respective injury labels ahead of Monday. Wilson has seen at least four targets in each of the past four games, but Arizona's inconsistencies passing the ball have kept things in check somewhat for the second-year wideout, who has just 18 catches for 201 yards and a touchdown over that stretch.

Wilson's reception and yardage totals were also his second-lowest figures of the season in those categories, but he helped make up for the pedestrian production with his first touchdown since Week 1 on an 18-yard grab coming out of the two-minute warning in the second quarter.

Analysis: Wilson bounced back from a poor performance in Week 4 in which he lost a fumble to lead Arizona in receiving yards in an upset victory Sunday.

The second-year wideout led the team in targets but struggled to get on the same page with Kyler Murray after the pair connected for eight completions in Arizona's previous game.

The third-year wideout also was the runner-up in targets, and both that figure and his catch tally served as career highs.

Gains 31 yards on two catches
Wilson pulled in both of his targets for 31 yards in Sunday's 41-10 win over the Rams.
Analysis: The Cardinals led this contest comfortably from wire to wire, leaving little action for the team's No. 2 receiver. After cashing in a short touchdown on his lone reception against the Bills in Week 1, the 2023 third-round selection gave way to rookie phenom Marvin Harrison (4/130/2) on Sunday. Wilson's sporadic usage on offense limits his fantasy value to those in deep leagues heading into a Week 3 matchup against San Francisco.

Sparse usage in Week 1
Wilson hauled in one of two targets for five yards during Sunday's 34-28 loss at Buffalo.
Analysis: The Cardinals trotted out rookie Marvin Harrison, Wilson and Greg Dortch as their starting wide receivers to begin the year, but the first two had just one catch apiece while Dortch compiled a 6-47-0 line on eight targets. It's unlikely that Harrison and Wilson will be held down too often this season, but the pair also has to contend with TE Trey McBride (nine targets Sunday) and RB James Conner (four targets) for the attention of QB Kyler Murray. Wilson will seek to get his 2024 season on…read more

Running with starters
Wilson is working with the starting offense early in training camp, ahead of newcomer Zay Jones, Theo Mackie of The Arizona Republic reports.
Analysis: The Cardinals signed Jones in May, shortly after taking fellow wideout Marvin Harrison with the third overall draft pick. With Harrison locked in for a starting spot, the other two starting roles presumably will come down to Wilson, Jones and 5-foot-7 slot man Greg Dortch. Wilson was targeted on 14.1 percent of his routes as a rookie -- one of the lowest rates in the league among starting wide receivers -- but he made the most of his limited chances with a 65.5 percent catch rate and 14.9 yards…read more

Outlook muddied after recent arrivals
Wilson has more competition for targets from quarterback Kyler Murray after the team selected Marvin Harrison fourth overall in this year's draft and then signed seven-year pro Zay Jones last week, Josh Weinfuss of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Wilson spent much of the offseason No. 2, at best, in the pecking order in the Cardinals passing game behind tight end Trey McBride, but the recent additions leave Wilson's potential volume in the upcoming campaign up in the air. As a rookie third-round pick last year, Wilson put together a 38-565-3 line on 58 targets in 13 contests, but he produced just 13 catches (on 25 targets) for 164 yards and one touchdown in five outings with Murray under center. The arrival of the dynamic Harrison…read more

Temporarily atop depth chart
Wilson is part of a thin WR room in Arizona after the team traded Rondale Moore and lost Marquise Brown in free agency, Bo Brack of GoPHNX.com reports.
Analysis: That said, the Cardinals own the fourth overall pick in a draft with three elite wide receiver prospects and might end up having their choice of the three. They also have time to pursue veterans, though journeyman Chris Moore has been the only free-agent addition so far. Wilson came in as a third-round pick last season and started 12 of his 13 games while posting excellent per-target efficiency numbers -- 65.5 percent catch rate, 14.9 YPR, 9.7 YPT -- but his low rate of targets per route (14.1…read more

Finishes rookie season on high note
Wilson gathered in all six targets for 95 yards during Sunday's 21-20 loss to the Seahawks.
Analysis: Wilson's yardage total marked a career best for the 2023 third-round pick, but perhaps more promising for the future was the fact he finally seemed to be on the same page with quarterback Kyler Murray. In four previous appearances together this season, the duo connected on just seven of 19 passes for 69 yards and one touchdown. Wilson thus heads into the offseason with a bit of momentum for the 2024 campaign, and he'll end the current season with a cumulative 38-565-3 line on 58 targets, which…read more

Gets back in end zone Sunday
Wilson gathered in four of six targets for 35 yards and one touchdown during Sunday's 35-31 victory at Philadelphia.
Analysis: Since sitting out Weeks 11-13 due to a neck injury, Wilson wasn't on the same page with Kyler Murray over the previous two games, failing to record a catch on seven targets. While he wasn't exactly efficient with his looks Sunday (5.8 YPT), Wilson got back in the end zone for the first time since Week 4 on a five-yard touchdown with 5:26 remaining in the contest. He'll aim to keep things up Week 18 against the Seahawks.

To maintain regular role
Wilson will continue to play a regular role in the Cardinals offense in the final two games of the regular season, especially after Marquise Brown (heel) was placed on injured reserve Friday, Zach Gershman of the team's official site reports.
Analysis: Regarding Arizona's rookie class in general Thursday, coach Jonathan Gannon said, "Reps are gold right now for those guys, and they'll take the next step." Speaking of reps, Wilson hasn't lacked for them since the team's Week 14 bye, earning at least an 88 percent snap share the last two contests. Having said that, his lack of a rapport with Kyler Murray is evident, as Wilson has been contained to three catches (on 13 targets) for 34 yards in the three games in which they've both played.

No catches on three targets
Wilson (neck) was targeted three times but did not record a reception in Sunday's 45-29 loss to the 49ers.
Analysis: Wilson returned from a neck injury that cost him Arizona's last three games leading into the bye week. The 23-year-old failled to record a reception on three targets as he was eased back into action against San Francisco. While his stat line would normally sour any potential fantasy appeal, Wilson could see his role on offense increase if starter Marquise Brown (heel) is unable to suit up against Chicago next Sunday after re-aggravating the same heel injury for the second week in a row.

Analysis: Following the Cardinals' Week 14 bye, Wilson was a limited practice participant Wednesday through Friday and looks poised to make his return to the lineup for the first time since Week 10. Confirmation on Wilson's status will arrive no later than 90 minutes prior to Sunday's 4:05 p.m. ET kickoff, when Arizona will release its inactive list.

Officially questionable for Week 15
Wilson (neck) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the 49ers, Bo Brack of GoPHNX.com reports.
Analysis: Wilson last played Week 10 and seems to have benefitted from a Week 14 bye. He was a limited practice participant throughout the week, with coach Jonathan Gannon saying Friday that the rookie looked good in practice and should be ready to "pick up where he left off" before the injury, per PHNX Cardinals.

Analysis: Wilson's last appearance occurred in Week 10, and while his absences Weeks 11-13 were blamed on a shoulder injury, the Cardinals now are listing him with a neck issue after their Week 14 bye. He's managed back-to-back capped sessions so far this week and will have one more opportunity to get back to all activity before the team potentially gives him a designation ahead of Sunday's game against the 49ers.

While his absences before the bye were attributed to a shoulder injury, he's now being listed with a neck issue.

Analysis: Coach Jonathan Gannon ruled Wilson out before practice Friday, likely giving Greg Dortch at least one more week in a top-three role at wide receiver. The rookie will enter a Week 14 bye having missed three consecutive games and four of the past five, though the fact he hasn't been placed on injured reserve suggests there's some chance he'll be ready for Week 15 against the 49ers.

Analysis: Wilson is set to go down as a non-participant on the Cardinals' fifth practice report in a row, and unless he can get back on the field in some capacity Friday, he'll most likely miss a third consecutive game this weekend in Pittsburgh. In addition to Wilson, quarterback Kyler Murray could be down a couple other key passing-game weapons, as wideout Marquise Brown (heel) and tight end Trey McBride (groin) were also spectators at practice Thursday for the second day in a row.

Analysis: Coach Jonathan Gannon confirmed Friday that Wilson will be inactive for a third time in four games.

Greg Dortch took on most of Wilson's snaps in a loss to the Texans last Sunday, catching six of eight targets for 76 yards while playing more snaps on offense (46 - 75 percent) than he had in every prior game combined this year (45).

Wilson (shoulder) gathered in three of six targets for 34 yards during Sunday's 25-23 win over the Falcons.
Analysis: In his return from a one-game absence due to a shoulder injury, Wilson worked with quarterback Kyler Murray (knee) for the first time in his brief career, and the rookie third-round pick extended his streak with at least three catches to four games.

Finishes second in team receiving
Wilson had four receptions on six targets for 58 yards in Sunday's 31-24 loss to Baltimore.
Analysis: The Stanford product wound up finishing behind tight end Trey McBride (10-95-1) for the team lead in receiving yards. Wilson is quietly putting together a solid season with a 25-401-2 receiving line through eight weeks. Expect him to continue serving as the Cardinals No. 2 wideout while catching passes from Joshua Dobbs when Arizona goes on the road to face Cleveland in Week 9, but Kyler Murray (knee) could be back under center as soon as Week 10.

Having said that, an uneven passing game led by quarterback Joshua Dobbs resulted in another lacking performance for the rookie third-round pick.

Little output Sunday
Wilson gathered in one of two targets for 18 yards during Sunday's 34-20 loss to the Bengals.
Analysis: Despite logging his second-highest snap share (75 percent) of the season, Wilson had the fewest catches and yards in any of his five games as a pro to date. The rookie third-round pick continued to operate as the team's No. 2 WR behind Marquise Brown (91 percent) and ahead of Rondale Moore (67 percent). However, he may have a tough time taking advantage of that usage this Sunday against a Rams defense that has conceded the seventh-fewest yards per catch (7.0) to wide receivers this season.
