Michael Wilson News
Tuesday, June 2, 5:31 PM
Arizona Cardinals head coach Mike LaFleur said that wide receiver Michael Wilson will play "closer to the core" in the Puka Nacua role as the Z receiver in 2026, according to The Arizona Republic's Theo Mackie. Former first-rounder Marvin Harrison Jr. will play the Davante Adams role as the X receiver, while Kendrick Bourne is expected to see more work in the slot than he has in the past. Wilson, 26, had a career year in 2025 in his third year in the NFL, but he only broke through after veteran quarterback Jacoby Brissett replaced the injured Kyler Murray (foot). The former third-rounder in 2023 out of Stanford caught 78 passes for 1,006 yards and seven touchdowns on 126 targets across 17 regular-season games. After his first career 1,000-yard season, the Cardinals have made it clear they are interested in giving Wilson an extension. It's good news that Brissett is back as Arizona's starter under center in 2026, but in what should be a much more balanced offense in the desert under LaFleur, the Cardinals' entire passing game is expected to take a step back. Wilson, who is ranked as RotoBaller's No. 37 fantasy WR in single-year leagues, could lead the team in targets and catches in the underneath role.

Ben Skowronek News
Friday, October 10, 11:49 PM
Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Ben Skowronek (illness) was limited in practice earlier this week but carries no injury designation into a Week 6 showdown with the Cleveland Browns. Although the fifth-year pro has just one reception this season, he could be in line for additional opportunities on Sunday with Calvin Austin III (knee) sidelined. Scotty Miller and Roman Wilson may also step into expanded roles, but Skowronek logged the most snaps of the three in Week 4 before the team's bye. He's also the only one with any meaningful fantasy output this year, taking his lone catch into the end zone for a 22-yard score back in Week 1. With the Browns stifling the run through the first five weeks, quarterback Aaron Rodgers could be forced to throw the ball early and often. Skowronek can't be considered a viable option in most redraft formats, but he does have some sneaky appeal as a deep-league dart throw.
