Garrett Wilson Week 7 Outlook - Jets at Steelers

By Derek Brown (FantasyPros), Thu, Oct 17th 2024, 1:05pm EDT

Wilson's stock takes a hit with the arrival of Davante Adams. The question is, how much? Wilson is the WR11 in fantasy points per game, commanding a 29.3% target share, a 35.8% air-yard share, a 35.7% first-read share, and producing 1.77 YPRR. Well, we know those market share metrics will be impacted. We'll have to see how much, though. Wilson leads the NFL in red zone targets. He faces a Pittsburgh pass defense that has the second-highest rate of single-high (68.2%). Against single-high, Wilson's market share and efficiency numbers look nearly identical to his overall stats. Wilson is a WR2 this week, as we see how the work will be split up between him and Adams. Pittsburgh has allowed the seventh-most PPR points per target and the 15th-most receiving yards per game to perimeter wide receivers.
