Can Michael Wilson Repeat as a Reliable Fantasy Option in 2026?

Saturday, August 22, 12:05 PM

Arizona Cardinals wideout Michael Wilson is coming off a career year where he set career-best marks in targets, receptions, receiving yards, and receiving touchdowns. The 26-year-old finished as the WR10 overall in PPR scoring and averaged 13.0 fantasy points per game. Wilson quickly established a connection with Jacoby Brissett and reaped the benefits of Marvin Harrison Jr. missing an extended amount of time due to injuries. However, in the three games Harrison played over 70 percent of the snaps after Week 6, Wilson averaged 7.9 points per game and failed to surpass double-digit fantasy points. In addition, Wilson averaged 4.9 points per game during the first seven weeks of the season when Harrison was on the field. It will be intriguing to see if Harrison and Wilson can coexist in Mike LaFleur's new offense. If not, Wilson could fade to being off fantasy radars in season-long leagues again.

Colston Loveland Targeted Thrice on Opening Drive

Saturday, August 22, 11:49 PM

Chicago Bears tight end Colston Loveland reeled in one of three targets for a gain of ten yards in Saturday's 27-9 preseason loss to the Cincinnati Bengals. The former Michigan Wolverine connected with quarterback Caleb Williams in the flat on Chicago's fifth play from scrimmage and turned upfield for a nice gain. That was the last time the duo would sync up, however, as Williams narrowly missed Loveland for a touchdown up the seam and had a pass batted down a play later. Misfires aside, it was a promising debut for the 22-year-old. More so, it's hopefully foreshadowing for the season ahead. Loveland is slated to be peppered with looks in 2026 - something he'll require to support his lofty price tag of the TE3 in ADP. Chicago will get the Tennessee Titans on the road for their preseason finale next Saturday, although it seems unlikely we'll see the second-year pro on the field for that contest.
