The New York Jets have placed wide receiver Garrett Wilson on injured reserve ahead of their matchup against the New England Patriots.
Wide receiver Garrett Wilson will miss at least the next four games after the New York Jets placed him on injured reserve today. Wilson injured his knee last week in the Jets win over the Cleveland Browns.
Wilson has been productive when on the field this year, he’s put up 36 receptions for 395 yards and four touchdowns. The Jets will be counting on rookie tight end Mason Taylor, wide receivers Arian Smith, Tyler Johnson and newly acquired Adonai Mitchell to pick up the slack.
Justin Fields is still their quarterback so with the exception of Taylor these pass catchers shouldn’t be inserted into fantasy lineups.

New York Jets wide receiver Garrett Wilson has been ruled out for their game against the New England Patriots on Thursday night.
The New York Jets have downgraded wide receiver Garrett Wilson to out for their Thursday Night Football matchup with the New England Patriots. This isn’t much of a surprise as prior reports have suggested that Wilson could miss multiple weeks.
Wilson has 35 receptions for 395 yards and four touchdowns on the season. In his absence rookie tight end Mason Taylor and newly acquired wide receiver Adonai Mitchell could see increased roles.
Taylor has flashed at times this season, including a nine catch game against the Cowboys, and Mitchell is a former second round pick who could benefit from a change of scenario and increased opportunities.

Garrett Wilson will miss Thursday night’s matchup against the New England Patriots.
The Jets just can’t seem to catch any breaks. After 2 straight wins, they lose their stud wide receiver Garrett Wilson. Wilson had just returned from injury.
The knee sprain will not require surgery, however Wilson is expected to miss the next month. Depending on the Jets record, Wilson’s season may be over. The Patriots defense is in a smash spot Thursday night. Aside from Breece Hall, all other Jets are risky fantasy investments.

Garrett Wilson trending towards playing versus the Browns this week!
The Jets are sorely missing star wide receiver Garrett Wilson. He has missed with a knee injury since Week 7 and is coming off a bye week feeling healthy.
Wilson will be a much needed weapon versus the stout Cleveland Browns defense. Whether it is Justin Fields or Tyrod Taylor starting at quarterback, this is much welcomed news for Jets fans and fantasy gamers alike. Fire up Garrett Wilson as a back end WR1.

Wide receiver Garrett Wilson inks $130M deal to stay with the Jets.
The Jets made Garrett Wilson one of the highest-paid wide receivers in the NFL, agreeing to a four-year, $130 million extension with a whopping $90 million guaranteed, per ESPN’s Adam Schefter. The deal makes Wilson the first WR to average over $30 million per year after just three NFL seasons, placing him fifth in average annual salary – nestled between DK Metcalf and A.J. Brown.
Now entering his age-25 season, Wilson opened his career with three straight 1,000-yard seasons, averaging 156 targets per year while never missing a game. His volume has been elite from the jump – but the efficiency hasn’t followed. He’s posted negative fantasy points over expectation (FPOE) in all three seasons, though 2024 marked his most efficient campaign to date, finishing as the WR18 in PPR points per game.
Subpar quarterback play has largely limited Wilson’s ceiling. He never clicked with Aaron Rodgers, with reports suggesting Rodgers grew frustrated with Wilson’s improvisational style. Now with Davante Adams off to Los Angeles, Wilson projects as the clear No. 1 target in a run-heavy Jets offense, catching passes from Justin Fields – his former Ohio State teammate. While the reunion may bring some chemistry, Fields is unlikely to unlock Wilson’s ceiling as a fantasy star.
Currently going as the WR16 on Underdog (Round 3 ADP), Wilson remains a high-floor, low-ceiling fantasy pick – buoyed by elite usage and durability, but weighed down by ongoing efficiency issues. That said, a 30% target share is well within reach in 2025.

Jets GM Darren Mougey says that the team will pick up wide receiver Garrett Wilson’s 5th-year option.
Garrett Wilson will be staying in New York for the foreseeable future. Jets General Manager Darren Mougey told reporters that the Jets will be exercising the 5th-year team option to keep Garrett Wilson in New York.
Amid frustrations with how the Jets fate has played out the last 2 seasons, Wilson has been rumored to want a trade away from the team. There has been no recent buzz about Garrett Wilson wanting a trade and part of that can be attributed to the fact that new head coach Aaron Glenn has decided to move on from the Aaron Rodgers era.
Garrett Wilson has been reunited with his college quarterback Justin Fields and will look to build off of his WR-10 and 101 reception performance in 2025. Wilson is being drafted in the early 3rd round on Underdog as WR-15.
