Wilson suffered a season-ending knee injury this August, after working in a depth role throughout his 2024 rookie season en route to a Super Bowl ring with the Eagles. A sixth-round pick, he'll likely have to battle for a roster spot once he completes his rehab from knee surgery. Read Past Outlooks

Overall
Signed a four-year, $4.22 million contract with the Eagles in May of 2024.
Placed on IR
The Eagles placed Wilson (knee) on injured reserve Friday, Jeff McLane of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.
ANALYSIS
The second-year wideout suffered a season-ending injury to his left knee during practice Tuesday. Wilson previously appeared on track for a depth role, likely standing fourth or fifth on the depth chart at wide receiver. His injury gives recent trade acquisition John Metchie a better chance to make the Week 1 roster.

2024 Fantasy Outlook
After being selected in the sixth round of the 2024 draft by the Eagles, Wilson may have a difficult time earning a significant role in the offense. Both A.J. Brown and DeVonta Smith are full-time superstar players, so competing for an outside role isn't an option. With Wilson being 6-foot-6, 231 pounds, the slot doesn't appear to be a realistic option. In terms of skills, the rookie tested extremely well in speed (for his size), agility and explosiveness. However, the main issues with his college game were drops (15), inconsistent route running and getting quickly to top speed. In addition, the Eagles have Jahan Dotson and Parris Campbell on the roster. As a result, it also will be difficult for Wilson to move into the top-four on the receiver depth chart.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Candidate for WR3 role
Wilson, who the Eagles selected out of Florida State in the sixth round of the 2024 NFL Draft, is among the players in line to compete for the team's No. 3 wide receiver role, Tim McManus of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
McManus notes that the 6-foot-6, 235 pound Wilson impressed throughout the pre-draft process with balance and body control rare for a player of his size. With a similarly big-bodied wideout in DeVante Parker now off the roster after his Monday retirement, the FSU product could have a clearer path to a roster spot behind top wideouts A.J. Brown and DeVonta Smith.
