Current status
OUT
Remains in concussion protocol; missed Sunday's game at KC
Latest
Wilson sat out Sunday’s Week 9 loss at Kansas City while in the concussion protocol, after not practicing Wednesday or Thursday, per ESPN’s Rich Cimini. He remained in the protocol as of Monday and has not cleared practice participation this week; his current designation is shown in the live status box above. The knee sprain that limited him to seven games in 2025 is behind him; he entered training camp with no limitations.
He had 11 catches for 136 yards and a touchdown through the first two games, including a 5-yard score from Geno Smith against Green Bay. Omar Cooper Jr. returned from IR in Week 6, Tim Patrick was activated Oct. 10, and Arian Smith is out for the season.
Fantasy Action: Wilson is still in the concussion protocol with no practice participation yet this week, so check the live injury report before locking your Week 10 lineup. Adonai Mitchell is the Jets’ top healthy target in his absence; keep Wilson rostered as a WR1 once he clears protocol, since the target funnel runs through him every week he plays.
