Who Should I Start? Michael Wilson or Johnny Wilson

Sunday, December 28, 8:23 PM

Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Michael Wilson caught five of his 10 targets for 89 yards and one touchdown during Sunday's Week 17 loss against the Cincinnati Bengals. He capitalized on a larger volume share with teammate Marvin Harrison Jr. (heel) playing just one-third of the offensive snaps before exiting the game entirely. Operating as the top wide receiver in Arizona's offense, Wilson extended his touchdown streak to four games. He has posted at least 13 full-PPR fantasy points in each of those four weeks, and he ranks as the overall WR3 during that span. Harrison's return is far from guaranteed in Week 18, but even if the former first-round pick does face the Los Angeles Rams, Wilson should still serve as Arizona's No. 1 wide receiver and one of Jacoby Brissett's favorite targets. He ranks as a top-12 fantasy receiver heading into Week 18.

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Johnny Wilson (knee, ankle) will undergo surgery on his knee and ankle and miss the entire 2025 season, according to Jeff McLane of The Philadelphia Inquirer. Wilson suffered the injuries in practice on Tuesday. The 24-year-old was selected in the sixth round by the Eagles in 2024 and appeared in 16 games as a rookie, recording five catches. Wilson was expected to play a larger role on offense in his second season, but that will now have to wait until 2026. Philadelphia acquired wide receiver John Metchie III from the Houston Texans earlier this week, and Metchie III looks like the favorite to take Wilson's role as the team's WR4.
