All Davis Mattek insights about Garrett Wilson
PositiveProjectionOct 29, 2026
Davis Mattek identifies Garrett Wilson as his gold star DFS play at $6,300 in Week 8. Wilson has reportedly been telling the Jets he demands 10 targets this week, threatening to demand a trade if not fed. Coming off two poor performances as a known diva receiver, Mattek expects Wilson to get fed this week and take care of his statline, making him a strong play despite the low game total. Mattek also lists Wilson among mid-to-high priced wide receivers he is excited about playing this week, indicating strong value and upside at his price point.NegativeMatchupOct 22, 2026
Great matchup against Miami Dolphins, but volume concerns exist due to Jets' run-heavy offensive philosophy; the source questions what the actual target volume will be given the team's commitment to the run game.PositiveUsageOct 21, 2026
Projected to run virtually every single route for the Jets. Last game had 6 targets when AD Mitchell was active with 11 targets, indicating Wilson is the primary option but not the only receiver in a concentrated route participation scheme.NegativeRoleOct 20, 2026
Role dispersion question with Adonai Mitchell's potential return and Omar Cooper Jr. The source hopes for heavy personnel sets featuring all three receivers together, as that represents the Jets' best base personnel with multiple receivers and tight ends.PositiveUsageOct 15, 2026
Due to the absence of Adonai Mitchell, Davis Mattek projects Garrett Wilson to command a massive 37% target share this week.NegativeValueOct 5, 2026
Davis Mattek advises fading Garrett Wilson at his $6,800 DFS price point, labeling him 'massive insane chalk' and noting he spent the morning trying to avoid rostering him due to a negative gut feeling.PositiveValueOct 4, 2026
Davis Mattek checked Garrett Wilson's target share at 32%, which he deemed accurate for the week. Wilson is included in the chalk cash DFS lineup—the consensus build most establish-the-run users will play—positioning him as a core play in Week 4 cash contests. Mattek preferred Wilson over Rashaad Rice at the same salary point, stating 'I don't love Rice at 6,400. I probably should just play Garrett Wilson instead,' suggesting Wilson offered better value. Wilson appears in Mattek's top optimal DFS team, indicating he is a commonly selected option in daily fantasy contests.NegativeInjurySep 30, 2026
Had a concussion check at the end of Week 3 but is likely fine based on reporting; target share was 35%, highest on the Jets. A Dante Moore fan report indicates Wilson cleared the concussion evaluation before the Lions game. If he plays, expect similar target distribution this week; if unavailable due to concussion, Isaiah Williams becomes the primary option alongside Sedeeq.PositiveProjectionSep 28, 2026
Wilson was a must-play wide receiver for Week 3; Mattek states 'if you didn't play Garrett Wilson, you need to find a new hobby,' indicating he was a clear-cut elite option with strong performance that should have been in all lineups. Wilson was part of the chalk optimal lineup at wide receiver alongside Rashod Bateman and Parker Washington, reflecting extreme ownership concentration. He had 76% ownership in the week's contests, making him a necessary but not differentiating play for cashing lineups.PositiveUsageSep 27, 2026
Mattek identifies Garrett Wilson as a really good play today and states 'I just think Garrett Wilson is too good to give up on, honestly,' indicating strong conviction in Wilson's fantasy value and recommending against trading him away. Mattek notes that Garrett Wilson's target share is going to be preposterous, indicating exceptional volume opportunity. Wilson receives high target volume consistently, with Mattek emphasizing 'many many targets' as a key feature of his usage pattern. Mattek includes Wilson in optimal tournament lineups and prefers him over Lad in a head-to-head comparison. However, Mattek also expresses reluctance to start Wilson in Week 3, suggesting he would prefer other receiving options over him in the matchup, and includes him in DFS lineup constructions as a salary cap consideration.NegativeUsageSep 26, 2026

Wilson is grouped among third and fourth round receivers with ceiling concerns alongside DJ Moore, Ladd McConkey, Davante Adams, Luther Burden, Zay Flowers, and Teit.NegativeRoleMay 8, 2026
