The Arizona Cardinals’ receiving corps took another hit this week: Michael Wilson is out for the rest of the 2026 season with a fractured neck. It’s the biggest fantasy move since this morning’s report, alongside continued uncertainty around Puka Nacua‘s knee and turf toe in Los Angeles.
Michael Wilson (WR, ARI) — out for the season
Wilson fractured a bone in his neck on a 17-yard catch on the fourth offensive play of Sunday’s 17-3 loss at Seattle. He got up and played through it before testing afterward revealed the fracture. Coach Mike LaFleur told reporters Monday that Wilson is done for the year, confirmed by the team, CBS Sports and Fox Sports/AP.
Wilson had been Arizona’s top receiver in target share this season. With him and Kendrick Bourne (IR) both out, Simi Fehoko and Devin Duvernay are next in line for snaps, with rookies Reggie Virgil and Harrison Wallace III also in the mix. Expect Arizona’s passing game to lean even more on Trey McBride.
Fantasy action: Drop Wilson in all redraft formats; only a deep IR slot is worth holding him in dynasty. See our guide to IR, PUP and the NFI list for how season-ending designations work.

Jordan Whittington (WR, LAR) is Questionable for Week 10 with a back injury, a recurring issue that also cost him time in Week 8. He’s buried behind Nacua in the Rams’ receiver room regardless; Konata Mumpfield remains the more relevant waiver pickup if Rams wideouts sit this week.
Packers RB Josh Jacobs (finger, needs surgery) and Nacua remain the other top storylines from this morning’s report — both situations are unchanged since then.
