Can Garrett Wilson Return to WR1 Production in 2026?

Friday, February 27, 4:52 PM

New York Jets wide receiver Garrett Wilson is coming off a season-ending knee injury he sustained in December. Wilson was shut down in the middle of the 2025 season to avoid major injury and focus on a full recovery. In a limited season, Wilson had 36 catches for 395 receiving yards with four touchdowns on 59 targets. The 25-year-old was averaging over nine targets per game and was on pace to clear 160 targets. Heading into 2026, the Jets' future is very murky with no clear starting quarterback in place and Breece Hall potentially departing during free agency. Wilson will remain a fringe WR1 in dynasty based on his talent as a receiver alone, but his ceiling will continue to be capped due to the poor offensive ecosystem around him.

Ricky Pearsall News

Ricky Pearsall the Unquestioned WR1 in San Francisco?

Thursday, March 5, 7:18 AM

Ricky Pearsall's early NFL career has been hampered by injuries, resulting in 17 missed games through his first two seasons. However, with major changes expected to reshape the 49ers' receiving corps heading into 2026, the cards are aligned for a healthy Pearsall to take the next step and deliver upon the flashes he showed to bookend his sophomore campaign. Jauan Jennings is set to test free agency when the new league year opens, and All-Pro tight end George Kittle faces a lengthy recovery from the torn ACL he suffered in a Wild Card win over the Eagles. San Francisco is still likely to add receiving depth through free agency or the draft, but the former first-rounder Pearsall has every opportunity to carve out a major role on a depth chart with only the soon-to-be-30-year-old Christian McCaffrey currently threatening for targets.
