Who Should I Start? Jameson Williams or Michael Wilson

Saturday, October 18, 10:47 PM

Detroit Lions wide receiver Jameson Williams had his best game of the season in Week 6 against the Kansas City Chiefs, hauling in six catches for 66 yards and a touchdown on seven targets. Williams could be well-positioned to build on his breakout Week 6 game in Week 7 when the Lions take on the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Tampa Bay currently ranks 23rd in the NFL in passing yards allowed (1,520) and has allowed the fourth-most receptions of 40-plus yards (four). In the most recent meeting between these two teams in Week 2 of the 2024 season, Williams was targeted a career-high 11 times and recorded five catches for 79 yards. He profiles as a high-upside WR3/flex option for fantasy managers in Week 7.

Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Michael Wilson has yet to crack the top 40 at his position through the first six weeks of the season. His Week 6 performance of four catches for 44 yards equated to his best finish of the year at WR41 in half-PPR formats. To make matters worse, his average finish is WR72. In Week 7, he'll take on the Green Bay Packers, who are middle of the pack against the passing game. They have allowed at least one touchdown to opposing receivers in all but one game, but Wilson has only one touchdown in his last nine games played, dating back to last season. With the uncertainty at quarterback as Kyler Murray (foot) is questionable again, fantasy managers can leave Wilson on the waiver wire until something drastic changes.
