Russell Wilson: A Fantasy Football Savior for the Stretch Run

ROSTERED: 53%

Yes, I know Wilson hasn’t reached 20 fantasy points in a game since Week 4. Yes, I know he’s averaged an abysmal 176 passing yards per game over that same span. But hear me out. First, Wilson has rediscovered his rushing chops recently, hitting 30-plus yards on the ground in five of his last seven games and even scoring with his legs in Sunday’s win over the Browns. He’s also thrown 20 touchdowns on the year, tied for fifth-most in the NFL. In the right matchups, I believe he can cobble together all the pieces to return start-worthy value down the stretch. And boy, are the right matchups coming … Over the remainder of the fantasy season, here are Wilson’s opponents and their schedule-adjusted ranks against QBs: Texans (25th), Chargers (32nd), Lions (28th), Patriots (5th, skip this one) and the Chargers again in championship week. Chef’s kiss. If you’ve lost your QB over the course of the season (and many of us have), Wilson could be your savior.
