Who Should I Start? A.J. Brown or Garrett Wilson

Philadelphia Eagles head coach Nick Sirianni said there is mutual interest between wide receiver A.J. Brown and the team in continuing his career with the Eagles, but he also "can't guarantee how anything is going to play out into next season," according to Tim McManus of ESPN. Brown openly expressed frustration with the 2025 offensive operation and his role in it, leading to considerable trade speculation this offseason. Despite his frustrations, Brown called Philadelphia "home" and said he was "fortunate" to be one of the leaders of the offense. Although the Eagles want the 28-year-old three-time Pro Bowler back, general manager Howie Roseman indicated the team would entertain trade offers for him. Brown had two 1,400-yard seasons while helping Philly to two Super Bowl appearances in four years, and caught 78 passes for 1,003 yards and seven TDs in 2025 to finish as the WR12 in half-PPR scoring. There's no guarantee a trade out of town will be a boost to Brown's fantasy value in 2026.

New York Jets wide receiver Garrett Wilson (knee) had his 2025 season cut short by a knee injury that he suffered in Week 6. After attempting to make a comeback in Week 10, Wilson was eventually shut down for the remainder of the year. Across the seven games he played, the 25-year-old recorded 36 receptions for 395 yards and four touchdowns on 59 targets. While Wilson remains an obvious talent at the wide receiver position and profiles as the clear lead option in the Jets' passing game going forward, the offensive infrastructure around him in New York continues to be a major question mark. Justin Fields, Tyrod Taylor, and Brady Cook all saw time at quarterback for the Jets in 2025, but none of them appears to be the team's long-term answer at the position. As such, Wilson will likely be working with yet another new quarterback in 2026. New York will also have a new play-caller after moving on from offensive coordinator Tanner Engstrand. Wilson still profiles as a solid wide receiver option for fantasy managers in 2026, but the unstable situation around him limits his production certainty.
