Saints' Cedrick Wilson: Still nursing ankle injury
Rotowire
Wilson (ankle) was listed as a limited participant on Monday's practice estimation.
Wilson played through his ankle issue in the Saints' Week 6 loss to the Buccaneers, catching two of his three targets for 28 yards across 35 offensive snaps. The 28-year-old wideout is expected to continue playing through injury in New Orleans' Week 7 matchup against the Broncos unless he downgrades to a DNP either Tuesday or Wednesday.

Saints' Cedrick Wilson: Available versus Atlanta
Rotowire
Wilson (ankle) is active for Sunday's game against the Falcons.
Wilson was initially listed as questionable for Week 4 due to an ankle injury, but he's managed to suit up for Sunday's key divisional matchup. The journeyman wideout logged his first catch of the season versus the Eagles in Week 3, a three-yard gain. Wilson will work to make more of an impact behind top wideouts Chris Olave and Rashid Shaheed against Atlanta.

Saints' Cedrick Wilson: Questionable to face Falcons
Rotowire
Wilson (ankle) didn't practice Friday and is listed as questionable for Sunday's game at Atlanta, Mike Triplett of NewOrleans.Football reports.
Wilson played through an abdominal injury last week but now is in danger of missing a game due to an ankle issue. He was a full participant Wednesday before downgrading to limited Thursday and absent Friday. Rookies Mason Tipton and Bub Means are the top candidates to fill in as the No. 3 receiver if Wilson ends up inactive this Sunday.

Saints' Cedrick Wilson: Nursing ankle injury
Rotowire
Wilson (ankle) was limited during Thursday's practice session.
Wilson was able to play in Week 3 against the Eagles after nursing an abdomen injury throughout the week. He was a full participant in Wednesday's practice, but it appears Wilson is now dealing with an ankle issue. Friday's final injury report will provide clarity on his status for Sunday's NFC South showdown against the Falcons.

Saints' Cedrick Wilson: Cleared to play Week 3
Rotowire
Wilson (abdomen) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Eagles, Kat Terrell of ESPN.com reports.
Wilson was limited in all three of the Saints' practices this week, but he avoided an injury designation and will have the green light to take the field Sunday. The 28-year-old wide receiver has yet to see a target this season.

Saints' Cedrick Wilson: Tagged as limited participant
Rotowire
Wilson (abdomen) was a limited participant during Wednesday's practice session.
Wilson will have two more opportunities this week to increase his practice participation as he works his way through an abdomen injury. The 2018 sixth-round pick hasn't seen a target through the first two games of the regular season.

Saints' Cedrick Wilson: Sees fewer snaps Week 2
Rotowire
Wilson accrued zero targets during Sunday's 44-19 win versus the Cowboys.
Wilson once again made his biggest impact on special teams. Though he played the fourth-most offensive snaps of any Saints' wideout Sunday, the 28-year-old logged eight of his 20 snaps on special teams. Wilson also momentarily exited to the locker room with an injury, but he returned for the Saints' opening kickoff of the second half, according to Ross Jackson of WWL Louisiana. With zero targets through two games, it's unlikely that Wilson will offer any worthwhile fantasy value this season -- barring any injuries to top wideouts Rashid Shaheed and/or Chris Olave.

Saints' Cedrick Wilson: Fumbles in Week 1
Rotowire
Wilson posted zero targets during Sunday's 47-10 victory over the Panthers. He also fumbled his lone punt return.
Wilson looked more like a core special-teams player than a meaningful offensive contributor Week 1. The 28-year-old played the third-most offensive snaps of any Saints wideout Sunday, but he didn't get any targets while backups Mason Tipton (one) and Bub Means (one) saw more usage late in the game. Wilson also worked as the backup punt returner behind Rashid Shaheed, though the former fumbled his lone opportunity Week 1 on a 34-yard punt late in the fourth quarter. Wilson's next chance to bounce back will come during next Sunday's road matchup in Dallas.

Saints' Cedrick Wilson: Sits for preseason finale
Rotowire
Wilson did not play in Sunday's 30-27 preseason loss to the Titans.
Wilson was among an extensive group of Saints players who did not play in the preseason finale, as the team held out the vast majority of its starters and key backups. This also comes one week after the 28-year-old started in New Orleans' second preseason contest. His usage and playing time in two exhibitions seems to indicate that Wilson has secured a spot as the team's third or fourth wideout ahead of the regular season. With Rashid Shaheed (hamstring) still working his way back from injury, Wilson could even step in to play as the No. 2 wideout alongside Chris Olave in Week 1.

Saints' Cedrick Wilson: Starts against 49ers
Rotowire
Wilson started Sunday's preseason game against the 49ers and caught one of two targets for five yards.
Wilson and Chris Olave got most of the first-team snaps at wide receiver, with the former filling in for Rashid Shaheed (hamstring). It's a decent indication that Wilson is on track for the third or fourth spot on the depth chart, but he probably won't see a lot of targets even if he's on the field a good amount.

Saints' Cedrick Wilson: Quiet outing in preseason start
Rotowire
Wilson caught his lone target for one yard during Saturday's 16-14 preseason win over the Cardinals. He also returned two punts for 24 yards.
Wilson did not make much of an impression while working in with New Orleans' first-team offense, which was on the field for the first two drives Saturday. The 28-year-old appeared to step in for the absent Rashid Shaheed (hamstring), as he also handled the team's punt-return duties throughout the first quarter. Wilson's role as a pass catcher may be limited, but his value as a backup punt returner may help him latch onto the Saints' final 53-man roster.

Dolphins' Cedrick Wilson: Finds end zone on two catches
Rotowire
Wilson caught two passes for 27 yards and one touchdown on four targets in Sunday's 56-19 loss to the Ravens.
It's disappointing that Wilson couldn't draw more targets on a day when Jaylen Waddle (ankle) sat out, especially since the Ravens were without two of their leading corners (Brandon Stephens and Kyle Hamilton). The touchdown salvaged the game somewhat for Wilson, but whenever Waddle is healthy again Wilson will likely be reduced mostly to a blocker again. With that said, it's not clear whether Waddle might return against Buffalo in Week 18.

Dolphins' Cedrick Wilson Jr.: Week 17 Waiver Priority List
Rotowire
The Dolphins could be without Jaylen Waddle (ankle) in Week 17 at Baltimore, and Wilson could have the chance to help Fantasy managers in deeper leagues. He hasn't done much this season playing behind Tyreek Hill and Waddle, but he could see an expanded role if Waddle is out. It's a tough matchup against the Ravens, but Wilson could become an interesting streaming option in Week 17 against Baltimore.

Dolphins' Cedrick Wilson: Makes impact in narrow win
Rotowire
Wilson secured three of five targets for 42 yards during Sunday's 22-20 win over Dallas.
Wilson tallied his highest yardage total since Week 7, in part due to Jaylen Waddle (shin) exiting in the third quarter. Should Waddle miss any further time, Wilson would stand to handle a more significant role behind Tyreek Hill, who recently dealt with an ankle injury of his own. Wilson could become an interesting streaming option in Week 17 against Baltimore.

Dolphins' Cedrick Wilson: Does little with three targets
Rotowire
Wilson secured two of three targets for two yards during Sunday's 30-0 win over the Jets.
Wilson's lack of production was disappointing considering the presumed opportunity opened up by Tyreek Hill (ankle) missing the game, but unsurprising considering Jaylen Waddle's 8-142-1 line. In all but the deepest of formats, Wilson carries no fantasy value with a Week 16 matchup against the Cowboys coming up.

Dolphins' Cedrick Wilson: Quiet in win over Jets
Rotowire
Wilson wasn't targeted during Friday's 34-13 win over the Jets.
Wilson's involvement in the passing game dipped, as he played just 39 percent of offensive snaps with Braxton Berrios back in the lineup. With a road matchup against the Commanders coming up Week 13, Wilson's fantasy utility remains limited to being used an emergency flex options in deep formats.

Dolphins' Cedrick Wilson: Hauls in three passes
Rotowire
Wilson brought in three of four targets for 23 yards during Sunday's 20-13 win over the Raiders.
Wilson and Robbie Chosen split No. 3 receiver reps behind top targets Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle versus Las Vegas. While Wilson had scored in two straight games leading up to Miami's bye, he logged his highest catch total since Week 5 versus the Raiders. It was also just his fourth time this season with at least 20 receiving yards. Wilson stands to handle a similar depth role on the road Friday versus the Jets.

Dolphins' Cedrick Wilson: Scores on only reception
Rotowire
Wilson secured one of five targets for a 31-yard touchdown during Sunday's 21-14 loss to Kansas City.
Wilson has now scored in back-to-back weeks, though his efficiency on five targets left something to be desired Week 9. He did have a key illegal shift penalty that wiped out what would have been a long gain by Tyreek Hill, though, so despite his nose for the end zone, it's still not a guarantee Wilson secures the No. 3 WR job for himself. After a Week 10 bye, Wilson's next chance to make a good impression will come Sunday, Nov. 19 versus the Raiders.

Dolphins' Cedrick Wilson: Scores vs. Pats
Rotowire
Wilson secured his only target for a one-yard touchdown during Sunday's 31-17 win over the Patriots.
Wilson recorded his first touchdown in a Dolphins uniform Sunday, though he played a season-low 29 percent of offensive snaps. He will look to get more involved versus the Chiefs in Germany in Week 9, but with Chase Claypool now also in the mix as a depth wideout, there aren't many snaps to go around behind Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle.

Dolphins' Cedrick Wilson: Suits up Sunday
Rotowire
Wilson is active for Sunday's game against the Broncos.
With Jaylen Waddle (concussion) out and Erik Ezukanma inactive, Wilson will suit up versus Denver, while Tyreek Hill will lead the Dolphins' Week 3 WR corps. Also in the mix for targets Sunday are Braxton Berrios, River Cracraft and Robbie Chosen.
