Fantasy Football Happy Hour with Matthew Berry on Emanuel Wilson

PodcastMNF Recap + Week 5 Waiver WireOctober 6, 2026

From the episode

I'd actually prefer Emmanuel Wilson, by the way, who's available still in 51% of leagues... last week, the Seahawks had 32 running back rushes. Emmanuel Wilson handled 24 of them. He got 100% of the red zone and goal line work as well. He's actually led the Seahawks backfield in snaps each of the past three games.

STACKED’s take

Positive signalUsage

Wilson's 75% carry share and 100% red zone work make him preferable to Mixon.

Available in 51% of leagues; led Seahawks backfield in snaps each of past three games; last week handled 24 of 32 running back rushes (75%) and got 100% of red zone and goal line work; Matthew Berry prefers him over Joe Mixon as a short-term option despite 49ers matchup this week.
