Garrett Wilson: Everything you need to know

Wilson has praised new offensive coordinator Frank Reich's system during OTAs, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports. "This is probably one of the offenses that I'm going to look back on in a few years and love the most," Wilson said Thursday, adding that he appreciates the empowering nature of Reich's approach, which leaves more decisions in receivers' hands during plays. Wilson overcame subpar coaching and quarterback play to exceed 1,000 receiving yards in each of his first three NFL seasons, but the 2022 first-round pick had just 395 receiving yards in 2025 while missing 10 games due to a knee injury, from which Wilson has since recovered.

Wilson (knee) is participating in OTAs this week, Ryan Dunleavy of the New York Post reports. After not missing a game during his first three seasons in the league, Wilson was limited to just seven contests last regular season. He hyperextended his knee in Week 6 against the Broncos and was placed on injured reserve before returning for Week 10 against the Browns. Wilson played just 19 offensive snaps against Cleveland and sprained the same knee. He was shut down for the remainder of a lost season for New York. Now healthy, Wilson is looking to build chemistry with new starting QB Geno Smith.

Wilson (knee) could see increased competition for targets but also less attention from defenses after the Jets drafted tight end Kenyon Sadiq and wide receiver Omar Cooper, respectively, with the 16th and 30th picks Thursday, Mitch Sherman and Zack Rosenblatt of The Athletic report. Wilson should remain the top target in a new-look Jets offense quarterbacked by offseason acquisition Geno Smith. Despite being limited to seven appearances in 2025 by a knee injury, Wilson still led the team with 395 receiving yards. The 10th overall pick in the 2022 NFL Draft has averaged over nine targets per game through 58 regular-season NFL appearances. The addition of two more talented pass catchers may actually prove to be a net positive for Wilson, as he should retain a hefty target share once healthy while potentially getting more scoring opportunities if the Jets' offense improves as a unit. Wilson has 18 touchdown receptions through four NFL seasons.
