Garrett Wilson News
Saturday, October 24, 7:02 AM
New York Jets wide receiver Garrett Wilson remains a strong WR2 in PPR leagues for Sunday's home matchup against the Miami Dolphins. He has caught 35 of 48 targets for 418 yards and three touchdowns through six games, and his four catches for 44 yards against the New England Patriots in Week 6 were a blip after 100-yard performances against the Detroit Lions and Cleveland Browns over the past four weeks. Both of Wilson's 100-yard games included a touchdown, accounting for two of the Jets' seven passing scores. Target competition is the risk, with Adonai Mitchell's return and Omar Cooper Jr.'s 103-yard outing giving Geno Smith more options.

Luther Burden III News
Thursday, October 22, 7:38 PM
Chicago Bears second-year wide receiver Luther Burden III looked like the second-year breakout player that many fantasy managers envisioned coming into this season in the team's 30-24 victory on Thursday night over the visiting New England Patriots. Burden had a strong connection with quarterback Caleb Williams and caught all four of his targets for a season-high 130 yards and his second touchdown of the 2026 season. His four targets were tied with running back D'Andre Swift for third on the team behind tight end Colston Loveland's 12 and Rome Odunze's five, but he struck for chunk gains and averaged a strong 32.5 yards per reception on the night. Burden also carried the ball once for a gain of seven yards on the ground. It is a second straight strong game for the 22-year-old wideout after he caught all eight of his targets for 95 yards in last week's win over the Atlanta Falcons. The former second-rounder from Missouri is one of Williams' favorite targets and should be considered a must-start after a slow start going into the Monday night matchup in Week 8 on the road against the Seattle Seahawks.
