Garrett Wilson Catches Big Touchdown Pass Sunday

Sunday, September 7, 8:35 PM

New York Jets wide receiver Garrett Wilson caught seven of his nine targets for 95 yards and one touchdown during Sunday's Week 1 loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers. His touchdown came on a big 33-yard strike from Justin Fields in their first game together. Wilson's big game should excite fantasy managers going forward. There was no question that Wilson is an impact receiver with big upside, but it was a little unclear what his role would look like in a Fields-led offense. Now, we have our answer, and it's exciting. Wilson remains a high-end WR2 with legitimate WR1 upside heading into next week's game against the Buffalo Bills.

Xavier Worthy Suffers Dislocated Shoulder

Sunday, September 7, 9:44 AM

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Xavier Worthy (shoulder) has suffered a dislocated shoulder from Friday's game in Brazil. Worthy exited in the first quarter of Friday's contest after colliding with teammate Travis Kelce. He underwent additional testing which has now revealed a fairly significant injury. Worthy will still have more testing done, but is hopeful he can return with a brace. It seems tough to imagine Worthy being able to suit up for the Week 2 matchup against the Philadelphia Eagles. If Worthy misses time, Marquise Brown figures to gain the most value. Brown hauled in 10 of 16 targets for 99 yards in the Week 1 loss. Also, JuJu Smith-Schuster, Tyquan Thornton, and Travis Kelce should see increased roles. Brown needs to be rostered in all fantasy formats given Worthy is likely to miss time or be limited.
