He has been playing through two broken ribs, per RotoBaller and The Fantasy Footballers, and is Questionable on the final Week 9 report ahead of Sunday’s game at Seattle, per DraftSharks. He also sat out an Aug. 3 training-camp practice for an undisclosed reason, per NBC Sports; he played all 17 games in 2025.

Through Arizona’s first two games, Wilson led the Cardinals’ wide receivers with 14 targets, catching seven for 74 yards, per Pro Football Reference. He played 94% of the snaps in the Week 2 loss to Seattle, per Yahoo Sports, after a 1,006-yard 2025 season.
