Michael Wilson Could Receive Extension Soon

Wednesday, September 2, 6:45 PM

According to Josh Weinfuss of ESPN, Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Michael Wilson could receive a new contract within the next few days. There has reportedly been movement towards a new deal that could be happening before Week 1. Wilson is coming off a breakout campaign, so the Cardinals would like to lock him up long-term now. The former third-rounder finished with 78 receptions with 1,006 receiving yards and seven touchdowns in 17 games with the Cardinals last season. Wilson is heading into the final year of his rookie deal and appears to be coming into finally breaking out and building chemistry with this team. We'll see if the two teams can come to an agreement before the beginning of the season.

Rome Odunze News

Rome Odunze Could Be Poised for a Breakout Campaign in 2026

Monday, August 31, 12:27 PM

Across 12 games in 2025, Chicago Bears wide receiver Rome Odunze recorded 44 catches for 661 yards and six touchdowns on 90 targets. The 24-year-old got off to a hot start to the year, but his production tailed off in the second half of the season, and he missed time with a foot injury down the stretch. Including the Bears' two playoff contests, Odunze recorded more than three receptions in just one out of seven games he suited up in after Week 8. However, Odunze has been healthy throughout this summer, reportedly having no issues with the foot injury that hampered him in 2025. In contrast, Bears wideout Luther Burden III (groin) has been dealing with a groin injury throughout much of training camp. Additionally, Chicago could be looking to funnel more targets to Odunze in 2026 after the team traded away veteran wide receiver DJ Moore to the Buffalo Bills at the start of the offseason. Entering the year, Odunze may be flying under the radar at his current redraft ADP of WR27.
