Garrett Wilson, Connection With Aaron Rodgers Thriving

4 months ago

New York Jets wide receiver Garrett Wilson's chemistry with quarterback Aaron Rodgers has already been evident during the early days of training camp. Rodgers acknowledged that Wilson still has some minor details to work through but praised the third-year wideout for his athleticism. "He's just so dynamic because he can go from zero to full speed so quickly, and he can look like he's just kind of like gliding out there because he's moving so fast. It's a gift." Wilson has already amassed 178 receptions on 315 targets through his first two seasons as a Jet. It seemed likely the Ohio State product would break out in 2023, but that was before Rodgers' (Achilles) season came to a screeching halt after just four plays. There remains some risk here as we have yet to see Rodgers and Wilson make a significant on-field connection, but his upside as the primary target in New York's offense is astronomical. The former Buckeye is the WR8 in NFFC ADP (12th overall) and presents as one of the higher-risk, higher-upside players at the top of fantasy drafts.
