Cedrick Wilson Jr. Wants To Remain With Dolphins
1 year agoMiami Dolphins wide receiver Cedrick Wilson Jr. was expected to be released or traded this offseason. Despite that, Wilson remains on the roster and says he'd like to remain with the organization. The Dolphins signed Wilson to a three-year, $22 million deal in 2022. He was expected to be a key part of the offense, but the Dolphins traded for superstar wideout Tyreek Hill during that same offseason. After that, Wilson lost his role on the team and was hardly involved last season. He finished with 12 receptions, 136 yards, and zero scores in 15 games in 2022. It's likely that the Dolphins would've cut Wilson, but he's owed $5 million guaranteed on his $7 million base salary in 2023. That being said, the Dolphins would probably prefer to trade Wilson, but clearly don't have too many interested parties. The expectation is that Wilson is going to compete with Braxton Berrios and Chosen Anderson for the No. 3 receiver role this upcoming season. It's hard to imagine Wilson having any fantasy value while in Miami.
