BALLER MOVE: Don't Add
ROSTERED IN: 25% of Leagues
ANALYSIS: Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Michael Wilson was targeted just one time and didn't make a catch in his Week 9 game against the Chicago Bears. They were able to handle the team's receivers but had no answer for Arizona's run game.

Cardinals quarterback Kyler Murray completed just 13 passes on the day and spread the ball around to his receiving options, leaving little work for each of the team's receivers. They are a run-first team, and when they can succeed by pounding the rock and playing defense, that's what they will do.
Three of the team's running backs had fantasy-relevant days, but none of the receivers did. Lead wideout Marvin Harrison Jr. was only targeted five times, catching two passes for 34 yards and fumbling the ball. There will simply be games like this for Arizona moving forward if the defense holds up.
The Bears had another horrendous offensive day, meaning the Cards could grind the clock down with rush after rush. Chicago also provided little resistance in run defense. So, while not every week will be this bad for Wilson, it's clearly possible for him to have fantasy duds like this moving forward. He isn't worth adding for now.
