Who Should I Start? Garrett Wilson or Tetairoa McMillan

Sunday, August 10, 2:15 AM

New York Jets wide receiver Garrett Wilson failed to haul in his lone target in Saturday's 30-10 win against the hosting Green Bay Packers. Wilson and the Jets' first-string offense got just one series together in this one, and the fourth-year pro couldn't connect with his quarterback the only time Justin Fields went his way. In Wilson's defense, the pass was a bit out of reach as he tried to snag it, falling out of bounds. There isn't much to go on here, but it's nice to see that Fields targeted his former Ohio State teammate despite attempting just four passes. A 25% target share is likely what the wideout will need to elevate him to the next level in 2025. That is, unless his new QB has taken a step forward as a passer. Either way, he should get that volume in spades as New York's unquestioned WR1. Hopefully, the two will get a bit more playing time together next Saturday when they line up against the New York Giants.

Carolina Panthers first-round draft pick Tetairoa McMillan caught two of five targets for 43 yards in his first NFL action in Friday's 30-10 loss to the Cleveland Browns. McMillan hauled in a 30-yard deep ball from starting quarterback Bryce Young, but unfortunately dropped an open touchdown. He was targeted on three of Young's six pass attempts, suggesting that his target share could be ranked among some of the best receivers in the NFL. Young was looking McMillan's way early and often, and their chemistry should improve throughout the season. The next chance we will get to see McMillan in action is next Saturday afternoon against the Houston Texans.
