Who Should I Start? Michael Wilson or Matthew Golden

Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Michael Wilson enters Week 11 against the San Francisco 49ers atop the team's depth chart. With Marvin Harrison Jr. (appendix) sidelined, Wilson will operate as the Cardinals' No. 1 receiver. He has been a steady contributor this season, but he hasn't been impactful enough to carry fantasy relevance. Through nine games, he has 22 catches, 231 yards, and one touchdown, producing single-digit fantasy points in every contest. On a more positive note, he played 92 percent of the snaps last week and has 11 targets over his last two games. It's unclear how Wilson will handle playing against the 49ers' top cornerback, but at the very least, we expect him to have a higher floor than usual thanks to his increased volume. In an anticipated negative game script scenario, Wilson is a strong candidate to handle at least six to eight targets. This week's matchup bodes well, too, as San Francisco has allowed the ninth-most fantasy points to wide receivers in 2025.

Green Bay Packers rookie wide receiver Matthew Golden (shoulder) is officially listed as questionable for Week 11 versus the New York Giants. Golden was limited every day in practice this week and should have a good chance of suiting up on Sunday. The rookie wideout suffered the injury in Green Bay's Week 9 loss to the Panthers, and while he didn't practice on Friday and Saturday last week ahead of Monday night against the Eagles, head coach Matt LaFleur said that he was close to playing. The 2025 first-round pick hasn't broken out yet in a crowded Green Bay wide receiver room, recording 23 receptions for 262 yards on 29 targets, and is still looking for his first career touchdown through eight games. Golden could be in line for more opportunities over the second half of the season as the Packers have struggled on offense in recent games.
