Garrett Wilson Ruled Out for Week 8

Friday, October 24, 11:46 AM

New York Jets wide receiver Garrett Wilson (knee) has been ruled out for their Week 8 contest against the Cincinnati Bengals. The star wideout suffered this knee injury during the final quarter of their Week 6 loss to the Denver Broncos. Wilson was unable to suit up last weekend and will now miss his second-straight game. During his first five games of the season, Wilson was on pace to enjoy the best season of his career as he caught 33 of his 48 targets for 382 yards and four touchdowns. As a result, managers should expect the vast majority of targets to go to rookie tight end Mason Taylor and wide receivers Josh Reynolds and Allen Lazard. However, Taylor projects as a low-end TE1, while Reynolds and Lazard as desperate FLEX plays, as the Jets have yet to announce their starting QB for this contest. Wilson will look to return in Week 10 to face the Browns, following their Week 9 bye.

Ricky Pearsall to Remain Sidelined This Weekend

Friday, October 24, 5:20 PM

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Ricky Pearsall (knee) has officially been ruled out for the Week 8 contest against the hosting Houston Texans on Sunday, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter. Pearsall, who has not practiced at all since suffering a PCL sprain in his knee in Week 4, will miss a fourth straight game this weekend. The fact that the 25-year-old has yet to practice suggests that he could be trending towards missing a fifth straight contest next week when the team takes on the New York Giants on the road. When healthy, the former first-rounder will be a big part of the Niners' offense, but the problem is he's proven to be quite injury-prone early in his NFL career. Jauan Jennings and Kendrick Bourne will continue to operate as the team's top two receivers, but running back Christian McCaffrey has been backup quarterback Mac Jones' top target with QB Brock Purdy (toe) sidelined.
