New York JetsOur read
Written Oct 17, from his facts through last season
Five weeks into 2026 the tally is 5 points: zeros in weeks 1 and 2 of 2026, a 3 in week 3, a 2.1 in week 4, another zero in week 5. Two catches, 31 yards, no scores. Our preseason pace for him was 2.6 points a game, and he is under even that. The reason sits on the depth chart before it sits anywhere else. He is listed fourth among Jets tight ends behind Mason Taylor, Kenyon Sadiq and Jeremy Ruckert, and last season Wilson and Taylor together took 52% of the targets in this offense.
The 2025 record is the tell. Two games, 1.4 points total, 0.7 a game, one touch. He scored above the position's weekly median in zero of his two appearances. The one usage number that popped, a 33.3% red-zone share of his own touches, was one touch, ranked TE10 among 126 qualifying tight ends on a base that small. Average depth of target 2.0 yards, TE111 among 125. There is no role here that converts to fantasy points if it even expands.
The other thing is availability history. He played 2 of 17 games in 2025 and zero in both 2023 and 2024, so even the low end of the range, the 0-point tail, is live, and injuries are what pull it there. Our preseason number was 23 points over 9 expected games, and the season has not changed that read. Aaron Glenn and Tanner Engstrand are back, so nothing about the situation is new. He is giving you less than a roster spot is worth. Drop him and carry a tight end with a weekly path to targets.
