Garrett Wilson's fantasy role in Week 10

Garrett Wilson goes into Week 10 of the 2026 season as a matchup-dependent WR option for the NYJ. He is rostered in 98% of leagues and actually started in 48% of them, and we rank him WR23 on our own weekly board at 6 projected points.

Roster rates are steady week over week, so his role looks settled rather than in flux.

Health matters here: he carries a QUESTIONABLE designation, so have a replacement ready until his status is resolved.

Week 10 matchup breakdown

The matchup: vs BUF. Our Pepper Meter heat rating for this spot is 1 out of 5, which is how we grade the combination of role, projection and opponent difficulty.

Against a typical starting WR baseline of 10 points, his 6-point projection is 4 points short. That gap is the whole start/sit argument in one number.

How to play it

Sit Garrett Wilson in Week 10 if you have a real alternative — 6 projected points lands 4 under the WR starter line.

If you are deciding between him and another WR, compare projections first, then lean on the Pepper Meter heat rating as the tiebreaker.

Sally's take

Peppers & Picks ranks Garrett Wilson (NYJ WR), our WR23 this week for Week 10 of the 2026 NFL season vs BUF, projecting 6.0 projected points with a mild Pepper Meter rating. Sally's honest about it: 4 points under the starter line isn't the ceiling she chases. BUF is the opponent, and that's the part of this I'm least worried about. Fair warning: he carries a questionable tag as of the timestamp below, so re-check before kickoff. Sally keeps him at Mild until the usage says otherwise.

Tina's take

Peppers & Picks ranks Garrett Wilson (NYJ WR), our WR23 this week for Week 10 of the 2026 NFL season vs BUF, projecting 6.0 projected points with a mild Pepper Meter rating. Tina would rather take the cheaper, steadier option than 4 points of shortfall. Facing BUF in front of his own crowd, the script reads neutral to friendly, not scary. Fair warning: he carries a questionable tag as of the timestamp below, so re-check before kickoff. Tina keeps him at Mild until the usage says otherwise.
