Wilson didn't gather in his only target during Sunday's 29-9 victory against the Bears
EDGE 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. Even rookie first-round WR Marvin Harrison (2-34-0 on five targets) and stellar third-year TE Trey McBride (3-35-0 on four targets) were unable to produce much in the passing game, so Wilson's lacking performance is somewhat justified. Still, Wilson will look to get back in the box score this coming Sunday versus the Jets.

Wilson caught one of three targets for 15 yards in Monday's 17-15 win over the Chargers.
EDGE 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.

Wilson (ankle) does not carry an injury designation ahead of Monday's contest against the Chargers, Bo Brack of GoPHNX.com reports.
EDGE 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. The Chargers are dealing with injuries across their secondary, so it's possible Wilson and Harrison will get back on track under the primetime lights.

Wilson (ankle) was a limited practice participant Friday, Josh Weinfuss of ESPN.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Wilson also was limited Thursday, after handling a 95 percent snap share in last Sunday's 34-13 loss to the Packers. Fellow Cardinals wideout Marvin Harrison is progressing through concussion protocol, logging a full practice Friday without the use of a non-contact jersey.

Wilson was a limited practice participant Thursday due to an ankle injury, Josh Weinfuss of ESPN.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
The Cardinals' receiving corps had one known health concern prior to the team posting its first Week 7 injury report. Rookie Marvin Harrison wore a non-contact jersey Thursday in the wake of suffering a concussion this past Sunday at Green Bay and eventually went down as limited. Wilson joined Harrison with a cap on his practice reps, leaving both players question marks as Arizona prepares to face the Chargers on Monday Night Football.

Wilson brought in two of four targets for 21 yards and a touchdown in the Cardinals' 34-13 loss to the Packers on Sunday.
EDGE Analysis
Wilson couldn't truly capitalize on the second-quarter exit of Marvin Harrison due to a concussion, as the former actually saw his fewest targets since Week 2. 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. If Harrison remains sidelined for a Week 7 Monday night home matchup against the Chargers, Wilson would be in line to serve as the No. 1 wideout in that contest.

Wilson corralled five of six targets for 78 yards in Sunday's 24-23 win over the 49ers.
EDGE 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 sophomore receiver has garnered 22 targets over his last three contests, but his production has limited his fantasy value to deeper formats. Wilson and the Cardinals will hit the road for Week 5 to face the Packers next Sunday.

Wilson caught three of seven targets for 38 yards and lost a fumble in Sunday's 42-14 loss to the Commanders.
EDGE Analysis
Wilson failed to step up in the absence of tight end Trey McBride (concussion). 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. Wilson will look to bounce back in Week 5 against the 49ers, but Marvin Harrison should continue to pace Arizona's pass catchers.

Wilson secured eight of nine targets for 64 yards in the Cardinals' 20-13 loss to the Lions on Sunday.
EDGE Analysis
Wilson surprisingly set the pace for the Cardinals in receptions while tying Marvin Harrison for the team lead in receiving yards. The third-year wideout also was the runner-up in targets, and both that figure and his catch tally served as career highs. Wilson had been very modestly involved over the first two games, logging three receptions for 36 yards and a touchdown on four targets, so it remains to be seen if Sunday's surge in attention from Kyler Murray will endure in a Week 4 home matchup against the Commanders.

Wilson pulled in both of his targets for 31 yards in Sunday's 41-10 win over the Rams.
EDGE 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.
