Est. Return 9/22/2024
Wed Practice: DNP
2024 Fantasy Outlook
After being selected in the sixth round of the 2024 draft by the Eagles, Wilson may have a difficult time earning a significant role in the offense. Both A.J. Brown and DeVonta Smith are full-time superstar players, so competing for an outside role isn't an option. With Wilson being 6-foot-6, 231 pounds, the slot doesn't appear to be a realistic option. In terms of skills, the rookie tested extremely well in speed (for his size), agility and explosiveness. However, the main issues with his college game were drops (15), inconsistent route running and getting quickly to top speed. In addition, the Eagles have Jahan Dotson and Parris Campbell on the roster. As a result, it also will be difficult for Wilson to move into the top-four on the receiver depth chart.

Hamstring
September 18, 2024
Wilson (hamstring) was estimated as a non-participant on Wednesday's injury report.
ANALYSIS
The 6-foot-7 rookie wide receiver played through his hamstring issue in Week 2's loss to the Falcons, but following Wednesday's estimated DNP, he could be in jeopardy of missing time. Wilson has had an underwhelming start to his NFL career, failing to haul in either of his targets while playing 28 offensive snaps across two games. If he's unable to suit up Sunday, expect Britain Covey and Jahan Dotson to see even more work with Philadelphia's first-team offense.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Candidate for WR3 role
WRPhiladelphia Eagles
May 23, 2024
Wilson, who the Eagles selected out of Florida State in the sixth round of the 2024 NFL Draft, is among the players in line to compete for the team's No. 3 wide receiver role, Tim McManus of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
McManus notes that the 6-foot-6, 235 pound Wilson impressed throughout the pre-draft process with balance and body control rare for a player of his size. With a similarly big-bodied wideout in DeVante Parker now off the roster after his Monday retirement, the FSU product could have a clearer path to a roster spot behind top wideouts A.J. Brown and DeVonta Smith.
