No targets in Week 11 Wilson was not targeted in Thursday's 26-18 win over the Commanders.

Impact Wilson scored his first career touchdown in Week 10 but only played 18 offensive snaps that game and was only targeted once. His role wasn't much smaller in Week 11, dropping to 13 snaps and zero targets. He's now gone untargeted in half of the Eagles' 10 games this season, including five of the last six.

Scores first career touchdown Wilson scored his first career touchdown in Sunday's 34-6 win over the Cowboys, finishing with one catch for five yards.

Impact Jalen Hurts scrambled and found Wilson open in the back of the end zone on third and goal to put the Eagles up 20-6 early in the third quarter. The catch was just the second of the rookie receiver's short career and marked the first time he'd been targeted since Week 4.

Sees more snaps but no targets Wilson saw the field for 35 offensive snaps in Week 9 against the Jaguars but wasn't targeted a single time.

Impact Wilson's role increased with A.J. Brown exiting with a knee injury just before halftime, but not to the point where Jalen Hurts ever actually looked his way. The rookie has just one catch for nine yards this season. With Brown looking like he'll have a chance to return without missing any time, Wilson's role may shrink again next week.

Past concussion Wilson cleared concussion protocol Friday, Zach Berman of The Athletic reports.

Impact Wilson sustained a concussion during the Eagles' Week 4 loss to the Buccaneers, but it now appears he's moved past the issue. The rookie wide receiver out of Florida State has caught just one of his six targets for nine yards through Philadelphia's first four games. He's expected to play behind A.J. Brown, DeVonta Smith and Jahan Dotson in Week 6, when the Eagles host the Browns.

Continues progress Wilson (concussion) was a full participant in practice Thursday.

Impact Wilson has now logged back-to-back full sessions as he maneuvers through the league's five-step protocols. Assuming he suffers no setbacks in his recovery, he appears on a path to suiting up Sunday against the Browns. However, he'll still need clearance from an independent neurologist before the league allows him to exit protocols.

Progressing through protocols Wilson (concussion) was a full participant in Wednesday's practice session.

Impact Wilson was removed during the Eagles' Week 4 loss to the Buccaneers in order to be evaluated for a concussion. The Eagles had a bye in Week 5, and he was able to practice without restrictions Wednesday, though he will have to progress through the league's five-step protocols in order to be cleared ahead of Sunday's game against the Browns. The rookie sixth-round pick has one catch (on six targets) for nine yards through four regular-season games.

May have head injury Wilson is being evaluated for a concussion Sunday against the Buccaneers.

Impact Wilson had seen two targets today with no catches before suffering the injury. With little time left in the game, it's possible the rookie receiver may remain on the sidelines regardless, but if he did suffer a concussion, he'll enter the league's five-step protocols before he'll be cleared to return to action.

Collects first NFL catch Wilson pulled in one of two targets for nine yards in Monday's win over the Saints.

Impact Wilson played a season-high 21 offensive snaps, with A.J. Brown (hamstring) on the shelf for the second straight game, and while the 2024 sixth-round pick didn't have a major impact on the outcome of the game, he will have been happy to record his first career reception. It's possible his role expands in Week 4 if both Brown and DeVonta Smith (concussion) miss out, but he may still be behind Jahan Dotson and Parris Campbell.

Playing Week 3 while Brown's out Wilson (hamstring) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Saints, Zach Berman of PHLY Sports reports.

Impact Wilson didn't practice Wednesday or Thursday but appears to have gotten over his hamstring injury Friday, unlike fellow Eagles wide receiver A.J. Brown (hamstring), who has been ruled out for a second consecutive game. The 6-foot-6 Wilson has yet to record an NFL catch, but the rookie sixth-round pick's large catch radius makes him a candidate to take on some of the red-zone jump ball targets that usually go Brown's way.

SEPTEMBER 20, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Doesn't practice Thursday Wilson (hamstring) did not practice Thursday.

Impact Wilson has logged back-to-back DNP's to start the week, which doesn't bode well for his chances of playing in Week 3 against the Saints. The rookie sixth-round pick will have one more chance to practice in some capacity Friday. The Eagles' wide receiver corps has been hindered with injuries to Wilson and A.J. Brown (hamstring), and if one or neither are able to play Sunday, then Jahan Dotson and Britain Covey would see more work with the first-team offense alongside DeVonta Smith and tight end Dallas Goedert.

SEPTEMBER 19, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Estimated as DNP Wilson (hamstring) was estimated as a non-participant on Wednesday's injury report.

Impact The 6-foot-7 rookie wide receiver played through his hamstring issue in Week 2's loss to the Falcons, but following Wednesday's estimated DNP, he could be in jeopardy of missing time. Wilson has had an underwhelming start to his NFL career, failing to haul in either of his targets while playing 28 offensive snaps across two games. If he's unable to suit up Sunday, expect Britain Covey and Jahan Dotson to see even more work with Philadelphia's first-team offense.

SEPTEMBER 18, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Held catchless in Week 2 Wilson failed to secure his lone target in Monday's 22-21 loss to the Falcons.

Impact Wilson was targeted just once in each of the first two games, but has failed to reel either target in. The rookie wideout played 19 of the Eagles' 71 offensive snaps Monday, seeing increased playing time with fellow receiver A.J. Brown (hamstring) sidelined for the contest. Wilson faces an uphill battle for playing time and targets in the Eagles' offense, keeping him off the fantasy radar ahead of a Week 3 matchup against the Saints.

SEPTEMBER 18, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Active Monday Wilson (hamstring) active for Monday's matchup with the Falcons.

Impact Wilson drew a questionable designation heading into Week 2, but he will ultimately play through it. The rookie saw 10 offensive snaps, as well as seven on special teams, in his NFL debut versus the Packers. He projects to see a simliar workload against the Falcons.

SEPTEMBER 16, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Questionable for Week 2 Wilson (hamstring) is listed as questionable for Monday's game against the Falcons after not practicing Saturday, EJ Smith of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.

Impact Wilson popped up on the Eagles' injury report Saturday due to a hamstring issue, which puts his availability for Week 2 in jeopardy. The rookie sixth-round pick played 17 snaps (10 on offense, seven on special teams) and failed to haul in his lone target in the Eagles' Week 1 win over the Packers. Philadelphia could opt to elevate a wide receiver like Parris Campbell from the practice squad in case Wilson is unable to play Monday.

SEPTEMBER 14, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Zero catches in NFL debut Wilson had zero catches on one target in Friday's season opener against the Packers.

Impact Wilson, selected in the sixth round of the 2024 NFL draft, appeared to have a shot at the Eagles' No. 3 receiver role before the team acquired Jahan Dotson in late August. Wilson saw the field for just 10 offensive snaps in Week 1, well behind Dotson's 32 and just barely ahead of fifth wideout Britain Covey's nine. Even if Wilson were to overtake Dotson on the depth chart, don't expect the Eagles to direct many targets to wide receivers not named A.J. Brown or DeVonta Smith.

SEPTEMBER 10, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Ready to go Friday Wilson (concussion) is not on the Eagles' injury report Wednesday.

Impact Wilson returned to practice Sunday after missing multiple weeks while in the league's concussion protocols and should be considered all-clear for Friday. The rookie wideout will be making his NFL debut against the Packers in Belize, although his snap count could be minimal behind A.J. Brown, DeVonta Smith and Jahan Dotson.

SEPTEMBER 4, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Back on practice field Sunday Wilson (concussion) is suited up for practice Sunday, Jeff McLane of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.

Impact Wilson went into NFL concussion protocol in mid-August and had been held out of practices and preseason games since. His return to practice Sunday bodes well for his chance of being able to play in Philadelphia's Week 1 game against the Packers in Brazil on Friday, though Wilson's status should gain more clarity with the release of Monday's injury report.

SEPTEMBER 1, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Still in concussion protocols Wilson was absent from Eagles' practice Thursday as he remains in the league's concussion protocols, Dave Zangaro of NBC Sports Philadelphia reports.

Impact Wilson has been in protocols since Aug. 13 after sustaining a concussion during the Eagles' joint practice with the Patriots. That kept him out of the two remaining preseason games and will keep him out of practice until he is able to pass the necessary benchmarks set by the league. It's unclear whether Wilson will be cleared ahead of the Eagles' regular-season opener against the Packers on Sept. 6. The rookie sixth-round pick is currently slated as Philadelphia's fourth wide receiver on the depth chart behind A.J. Brown, DeVonta Smith and new acquisition Jahan Dotson.

AUGUST 29, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

In concussion protocol Wilson is in the concussion protocol and wasn't available for Thursday's preseason game at New England, Olivia Reiner of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.

Impact Wilson entered the protocol following Tuesday's joint practice with the Patriots. Now that he's dealing with a head injury, his status will be up in the air ahead of the Eagles' exhibition finale Saturday, Aug. 24 against the Vikings. In one preseason contest to date, Wilson, a rookie sixth-round pick, recorded a seven-yard catch on three targets last Friday at Baltimore.

AUGUST 15, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Makes one catch Friday Wilson hauled in one of three targets for seven yards during Friday's 16-13 preseason win in Baltimore.

Impact With the starting offense and injured wide receiver Parris Campbell (groin) sitting out the Eagles' exhibition opener, Wilson saw snaps early on Friday, including being on the receiving end of QB Kenny Pickett's second pass of the contest. Wilson didn't do much with his trio of targets scattered about the first half, but the rookie sixth-round pick has two more chances to make his mark in the preseason with the aim to lock down one of the reserve spots at wideout behind A.J. Brown and DeVonta Smith.
