Elijah Mitchell vs. Giants — Modest Backfield Role Offers Limited Weekly Upside
After being elevated to replenish a backfield missing Tank Bigsby, Mitchell has totaled 14 carries and 7 receptions over his last two games. While he has provided reliable veteran depth alongside Saquon Barkley and Jaydon Blue, his weekly elevation status leaves his immediate gameday workload uncertain.
Our projections hold Mitchell at zero fantasy points heading into a low-scoring divisional matchup with a 38.5 over/under. Despite his roster rate climbing to 20% on the heels of recent checkdown work, a low 4% start rate confirms he is best kept on fantasy benches this week.

Michael Wilson at Seattle — High-Volume Opportunity Beckons as Rib Concerns Fade
Wilson enters Week 9 without an injury designation after practicing in full, putting concerns about his broken ribs to rest. Operating as Arizona's clear top outside receiver alongside tight end Trey McBride, Wilson showed his immense involvement last week by commanding 15 targets against Dallas. With starting running back Jeremiyah Love recently sidelined on injured reserve, the Cardinals are positioned to lean even more on their passing attack.
Arizona travels to Seattle as notable underdogs, which should produce a pass-heavy negative game script. Our weekly projection lands at approximately 12 fantasy points on 7 to 8 targets and 48 receiving yards. Given his commanding 23 targets over the last two weeks, fantasy managers should feel confident slotting him into lineups as a sturdy WR2 or high-priority flex option.
