News: 4 days agoWilson (concussion) is out for Sunday's game against the Chiefs, Brian Costello of the New York Post reports.

Spin: With Wilson set to miss the contest, the Jets will be without their top wide receiver as he remains in concussion protocol. His absence leaves targets available to Adonai Mitchell and Omar Cooper, who get significant boosts to their respective Week 9 fantasy stocks, while Isaiah Williams figures to handle WR3 duties.

ESPN Fantasy Projection: Wilson is eyeing a bounce-back following an injury-shortened 2025 that limited him to seven games. It was the first time Wilson had missed time, having appeared in all 51 games during his first three seasons. The 2022 first-round pick ranked no lower than sixth among receivers in targets in each of those years, but he failed to produce a fantasy campaign better than 20th (PPG) due to New York's quarterback woes. Wilson was off to a hot start last season (four TDs, 14.2 fantasy PPG) thanks to a massive 33% target share (second highest). New York's signal-caller problems still aren't completely solved, but veteran Geno Smith should provide an upgrade over last year's Justin Fields/Tyrod Taylor duo. Wilson, 26, is one of the best raw talents at the position and should be valued as a good WR2.
