This compels me, for a second straight week, to write about Garrett Wilson and Adonai Mitchell. In Week 1 against the Titans they ran 80 and 78 percent of the Jets' routes, respectively. Mitchell accounted for 38 percent of the team's air yards; Garrett led the team with a 48 percent air yards share. Both guys had strong profiles that could translate well against a secondary that often gets ripped by outside receivers. Wilson, for his part, was targeted on 33 percent of his pass routes from the boundary last week against Tennessee, the third-highest rate among all wideouts in Week 1.

Wilson's 33% boundary target rate and 48% air yard share face weak Packers boundary defense

Wilson is in a good Week 2 spot against Green Bay's vulnerable boundary defense. He ran 80 percent of the Jets' routes from the boundary in Week 1 and was targeted on 33 percent of his pass routes from the boundary, the third-highest rate among all wideouts in Week 1. He accounted for 48 percent of the team's air yards. The Packers were shredded by boundary receivers in Week 1 (Carson Wentz completed 11 of 14 targets to outside receivers), making this a favorable matchup.
