Wilson (concussion) is listed as active Sunday against the Bills.
Wilson emerged from a Week 8 loss to the Raiders with a concussion and required nearly two weeks to make his way through the protocol for head injuries, seemingly getting the all-clear from an independent neurologist either Friday evening or Saturday. In any case, all three of the Jets' top three injured wide receivers -- also, Omar Cooper (ankle) and Adonai Mitchell (knee) -- are available Sunday, but Wilson should retain his standing as the clear No. 1 among the group, which has translated to a 43-527-3 line on 63 targets in eight games.

Jets' Garrett Wilson: Limited again Thursday
Rotowire
Wilson (concussion) was a limited participant at Thursday's practice.
Wilson was limited in a second consecutive practice Thursday, though he took a step in the right direction, as Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports that Wilson shed the red non-contact jersey at Thursday's practice. If Wilson can practice without limitations Friday, that would go a long way in his quest to clear concussion protocol in time to face the Bills on Sunday.

Rotowire
Wilson (concussion) was present at Thursday's practice, Antwan Staley of the New York Daily News reports.
Wilson is taking part in practice again Thursday after being a limited participant Wednesday. An upgrade to full participation would be a step toward Wilson exiting the NFL's concussion protocol, which would put him in position to return Sunday against the Bills following a one-game absence. His participation level Thursday will be clarified later in the day.

Jets' Garrett Wilson: Ruled out for Sunday
Rotowire
Wilson (concussion) is out for Sunday's game against the Chiefs, Brian Costello of the New York Post reports.
With Wilson set to miss the contest, the Jets will be without their top wide receiver as he remains in concussion protocol.

Jets' Garrett Wilson: Does not practice Thursday
Rotowire
Wilson (concussion) did not practice Thursday.
Wilson remains in concussion protocol and has not practiced either day thus far this week. He was placed in protocol midweek, which makes it an uphill climb for him to be cleared for Sunday's game at the Chiefs. If Wilson can't clear protocol, fantasy managers can expect more targets for Adonai Mitchell and Omar Cooper.

Jets' Garrett Wilson: Not spotted at practice Thursday
Rotowire
Wilson, who is in the NFL's concussion protocol, wasn't seen at Thursday's practice, , Antwan Staley of the New York Daily News reports.
Wilson also logged a 'DNP' on Wednesday, so the wideout's apparent absence from Wednesday's session sets the stage for Friday's practice to loom large in terms of his availability for Sunday's game against the Chiefs. In the event that Wilson isn't cleared to play, added targets would be available for some combo of WRs Omar Cooper, Adonai Mitchell and Isaiah Williams, as well as tight ends Mason Taylor (back) and Kenyon Sadiq.

Jets' Garrett Wilson: Denies trade request talk
Rotowire
Wilson said Wednesday that he won't ask to be traded from the Jets, Zack Rosenblatt of The Athletic reports.
Trade talks are heating up across the league and teams in the Jets' position are being looked at as potential sellers at the deadline. Wilson, who has been a Jet since 2022, will not seek a trade from the club, however. The fifth-year wideout is off to a strong start this season, drawing a 25.8 percent target share and averaging 1.98 yards per route run.

Jets' Garrett Wilson: Big day in loss to Lions
Rotowire
Wilson caught 10 of 13 targets for 107 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 31-24 loss to Detroit.
The star wideout paced Jets pass catchers in all three receiving categories, and his 23-yard TD from Geno Smith in the fourth quarter tied the game at 24-24, only for the Lions to respond inside the final two minutes. It's Wilson's first 100-yard performance since Week 14 of the 2024 season, as injuries disrupted his 2025 campaign. Wilson has also found the end zone in back-to-back games, and he'll take a 21-243-2 line on 27 targets into a Week 4 road trip to Chicago.

Jets' Garrett Wilson: Won't return this season
Rotowire
Coach Aaron Glenn said Friday that Wilson (knee) will remain on IR for the rest of the season, Eric Allen of the Jets' official site reports.
With the Jets 3-11 and out of playoff contention, there was no need to rush Wilson -- who last played in Week 10 -- back into action. The team's star wideout thus finishes his 2025 campaign with 36 catches (on 59 targets) for 395 yards and four TDs in seven games. Per Glenn, the Jets "just wanted to be smart with (Wilson) because he's a key cog of what we're doing here." The 2022 first-rounder remains under contract with New York through the 2030 campaign, and looking ahead he'll have plenty of time to recover from his knee issue ahead of next season, and when he next takes the field his supporting cast will no doubt be different, with upgrades at QB and WR presumably offseason priorities for the Jets.

Jets' Garrett Wilson: No change to IR status
Rotowire
Wilson (knee) won't have his window to resume practicing opened Wednesday, and head coach Aaron Glenn reiterated that a decision on Wilson's status moving forward will be made by team doctors, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.
Wilson has been on injured reserve since aggravating a knee injury in Week 10 against the Browns. He is eligible to have his practice window opened at any point moving forward, but it's unclear when or if that will occur. Glenn's answer to the media Wednesday regarding Wilson's status didn't differ from the information Glenn offered Monday. At this point, the Jets are preparing to move forward with John Metchie and Adonai Mitchell as their top two wide receivers for Sunday's game against the Jaguars.

Jets' Garrett Wilson: Availability for stretch run TBD
Rotowire
Wilson (knee) is eligible to come off IR this week, but coach Aaron Glenn noted Monday that a determination regarding the wideout's status hinges on a medical decision between Wilson and the Jets doctors, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.
Wilson last saw game action in Week 10, but it remains unclear if or when he'll return to the lineup as Jets' last four games approach. With the team 3-10 and out of playoff contention, there's no reason to hurry Wilson back, and if he remains sidelined this coming Sunday against the Jaguars, John Metchie, Adonai Mitchell and Isaiah Williams would continue to lead New York's WR corps.

Jets' Garrett Wilson: Ruled out for TNF
Rotowire
Wilson (knee) has been ruled out for Thursday's game at New England.
Wilson didn't practice at all this week, with reports suggesting he'll likely miss 3-to-4 games after re-injuring his knee during Sunday's win over Cleveland. Arian Smith, Tyler Johnson and Isaiah Williams got the most playing time among the other Jets' WRs on Sunday, but Adonai Mitchell and John Metchie could take on larger roles in the coming weeks.

Jets' Garrett Wilson: Being evaluated, getting MRI
Rotowire
Jets coach Aaron Glenn said Monday that Wilson (knee) is still having his injury evaluated and will undergo an MRI, Al Iannazzone of Newsday reports.
Wilson returned to action Week 10 despite being initially listed as questionable with a knee injury that had sidelined him since Week 6. It's unclear whether his current knee issue is an aggravation or a new occurrence, but testing on the Jets' No. 1 wideout's knee should provide some clarity. Wilson did not secure any of his three targets before exiting versus Cleveland, and at this stage his status has to be considered up in the air for Thursday's divisional contest against the Patriots. Per Rich Cimini of ESPN.com, Glenn said Wilson will "hopefully" be able to play Thursday but "I don't want to stamp that just yet."

Prior to his exit from the contest, Wilson didn't log a catch on three targets. The wideout approached Week 10 action listed as questionable due to a knee injury, but at this stage it's unclear if if his current issue is a setback related to that, or a new injury.

Jets' Garrett Wilson: Tracking toward playing Sunday
Rotowire
Wilson (knee) remains listed as questionable but is expected to play Sunday against the Browns, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Rich Cimini of ESPN.com had already reported Friday that Wilson was on track to suit up Week 10, so Schefter's report adds further credence to the belief that the wideout will return to the lineup after missing the previous two contests prior to the Jets' Week 9 bye. Wilson draws a difficult matchup against a tough Browns defense, but he has dominated the passing-game targets when available, which cements his status as a quality fantasy starter.

Jets' Garrett Wilson: Limited in return to practice
Rotowire
Wilson (knee) was limited at practice Wednesday, Mary Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.
Wilson hasn't played since suffering a hyperextended knee during Week 6 action, but the wideout's return to practice -- albeit in a limited capacity -- following the Jets' bye has him trending in the right direction ahead of Sunday's game against the Browns. Wilson now has two more chances to upgrade his participation level before the Jets post their Week 10 injury designations Friday. Prior to his injury, the 2022 first-rounder recorded 36 catches for 395 yards and four TDs (on 56 targets) in six games, marks that still pace the Jets' pass-catching corps.
