Who Should I Start? Jayden Reed or Michael Wilson

Saturday, September 20, 2:17 PM

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Jayden Reed (collarbone, foot) has officially been placed on Injured Reserve, per ESPN's Adam Schefter. This move comes as no surprise after Reed suffered a fractured collarbone in Week 2. He had also been attempting to play through a Jones fracture in his foot, so Reed underwent operations on both injuries earlier this week. The IR placement guarantees Reed will miss at least four games, but he's almost certain to be out significantly longer than that. Without him, Packers wide receivers Romeo Doubs, Dontayvion Wicks, and Matthew Golden could all see a bump in both snaps and target volume. Reed could be stashed in fantasy leagues that offer an IR spot, but there's no guarantee he will be able to return in time to make an impact later this season.

Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Michael Wilson is off to a quiet start to the 2025 season, recording just six catches for 36 yards and a touchdown on 14 targets through his first four games. He saw a season-high six targets in Week 4, but Arizona wide receiver Zay Jones (concussion) is slated to return in Week 5 after missing Week 4 and could eat into Wilson's target share. Wilson and the Cardinals are favored by more than a touchdown in their Week 5 matchup against the Tennessee Titans, which could lead to a run-heavy game script. Wilson should remain off of fantasy radars this Sunday.
