Wilson (hamstring) is participating in Arizona's voluntary OTAs without any apparent restrictions, per the Cardinals' official site.
EDGE 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. With the Cardinals having opted against adding significant competition to the pass-catching corps this offseason, Wilson is positioned to reprise a starting role and operate as Kyler Murray's third-look target behind No. 1 wideout Marvin Harrison and tight end Trey McBride.

Wilson (hamstring) is listed as inactive Sunday versus the 49ers, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.
EDGE 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.

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.
EDGE 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.

Wilson brought in four of six targets for 22 yards in the Cardinals' 13-9 loss to the Rams on Saturday night.
EDGE 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.
EDGE 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 caught both of his targets for nine yards during Sunday's 30-17 win against the Patriots.
EDGE Analysis
Wilson's 74 percent snap share Sunday was in the range of his norm this season, but TE Trey McBride (10 targets), WR Marvin Harrison (six) and RB James Conner (five) continue to dominate the attention of QB Kyler Murray. 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.
EDGE 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. Wilson has consistently flirted with that threshold in recent weeks, as he has at least 54 receiving yards in three consecutive games heading into a Week 15 home matchup versus the Patriots.

Wilson caught five of seven targets for 55 yards in Sunday's 23-22 loss to the Vikings.
EDGE Analysis
The five grabs were the most for Wilson since Week 8, but the second-year wideout once again took a back seat to Trey McBride and Marvin Harrison in the Cardinals' passing attack. Wilson has seen at least four targets in three straight games, his longest such streak of the season, and his role could continue to grow in Week 14 against the Seahawks.

Wilson hauled in two of four targets for 54 yards during Sunday's 16-6 loss at Seattle.
EDGE Analysis
Trey McBride dominated the attention of QB Kyler Murray on Sunday to the tune of 15 targets, which translated to a 12-133-0 line for the tight end. 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). Since Wilson was blanked on one target back in Week 9, he's had modest results the last two contests, combining for five catches (on eight targets) for 78 yards and no touchdowns. He'll remain a regular in Arizona's passing game this coming Sunday in Minnesota.

Wilson gathered in three of four targets for 24 yards during Sunday's 31-6 win versus the Jets.
EDGE Analysis
After getting blanked on one target during a Week 9 victory against the Bears, Wilson made a mark in the box score Sunday, but he still ranked fourth in targets among Cardinals behind WR Marvin Harrison, TE Trey McBride and RB James Conner, all of whom earned five. All three at least doubled up Wilson's receiving yardage total, and Harrison was on the receiving end of QB Kyler Murray's only TD pass. Wilson hasn't surpassed 31 yards in five consecutive contests, leaving his fantasy value waning as Arizona enters its Week 11 bye.
