Albert Wilson: Inks practice-squad deal
Rotowire
The Raiders signed Wilson to their practice squad Friday.
Wilson will serve as wideout depth on the practice squad after the team waived Tyron Johnson from the active roster Friday. Wilson caught 25 of 39 targets for 213 yards across 14 appearances with the Dolphins last year, but even if he gets elevated to the active roster, he'll have a difficult time garnering many targets behind the likes of Davante Adams, Hunter Renfrow (concussion) and Darren Waller.

Vikings' Albert Wilson: Catches two TDs in preseason opener
Rotowire
Wilson had two receptions for 22 yards and two touchdowns on two targets in Sunday's loss at Las Vegas.
Wilson had both of his touchdown passes in the second half against the second- and third-team defense, so don't get too excited. He's battling for a reserve receiver role and is likely behind Ihmir Smith-Marsette, Bisi Johnson and possibly sixth-round rookie Jalen Nailor at this point for the No. 4 and No. 5 receiver roles.

Vikings' Albert Wilson: Inks deal with Minnesota
Rotowire
Wilson agreed to a one-year contract with the Vikings on Tuesday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Wilson spent the past three seasons in Miami and totaled 25 receptions for 213 yards and zero touchdowns in 14 games during 2021. The 29-year-old should compete with Bisi Johnson and rookie sixth-rounder Jalen Nailor for a depth role in Minnesota's receiving corps.

Dolphins' Albert Wilson: Silent in season finale
Rotowire
Wilson was not targeted during Sunday's 33-24 win over New England.
Wilson is scheduled to become an unrestricted free agent this offseason, so his quiet Week 18 outing may ultimately represent his final game in Miami. The 29-year-old veteran posted the worst statistical healthy season of his career across 14 appearances in 2021, having secured just 25 of 39 targets for 213 yards.

Dolphins' Albert Wilson: Comes off COVID list
Rotowire
The Dolphins activated Wilson (illness) from the reserve/COVID-19 list Friday.
Miami hasn't added Wilson to its Week 17 injury report in the wake of his activation, so the team is seemingly satisfied enough with where he stands from a conditioning standpoint following a five-day stay on the list. Since he wasn't able to practice this week, Wilson may have a lighter role than usual Sunday against the Titans after playing between 46 and 57 percent of the Dolphins' snaps on offense in each of his last five appearances before sitting out the Week 16 win over New Orleans. Even before going on the COVID-19 list, Wilson wasn't an especially fantasy-relevant option, having averaged 3.4 receptions for 31.4 yards while scoring no touchdowns during that five-game stretch.

Dolphins' Albert Wilson: Lands on COVID list
Rotowire
Wilson has been placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list ahead of Monday night's game versus the Saints.
Until Wilson is able to clear the NFL's COVID protocols, Jaylen Waddle and DeVante Parker are in line to lead the Dolphins' wideout corps against New Orleans, with Isaiah Ford, Mack Hollins, Preston Williams and Tommylee Lewis also in the mix.

Dolphins' Albert Wilson: Remains absent from practice
Rotowire
Wilson (personal) didn't take part in Thursday's walk-through practice, Amie Just of The New Orleans Times-Picayune reports.
After he wasn't in attendance for Wednesday's workout, Wilson remained away from the team for its first official Week 16 session. Miami head coach Brian Flores hasn't yet indicated that Wilson is in danger of missing Monday's game against the Saints, so as long as the veteran wideout returns to the team facility by the end of the weekend, he should be cleared to play. However, with Jaylen Waddle set to return from a one-game absence and DeVante Parker and Mike Gesicki also healthy, Wilson likely won't rank any higher than fourth in the Dolphins' pass-catching hierarchy this week.

Dolphins' Albert Wilson: Gets personal day
Rotowire
Wilson isn't practicing Wednesday while he tends to a personal matter, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.
Wilson's status will need to be monitored ahead of Monday's road matchup against the Saints. If he can't go Week 16, more opportunities would open up at receiver for Isaiah Ford, Mack Hollins and Preston Williams.

Dolphins' Albert Wilson: Held to one catch
Rotowire
Wilson secured one of two targets for nine yards during Sunday's divisional win over the Jets. He also carried the ball once for a gain of one yard.
Wilson disappointed even with Tua Tagovailoa's top target Jaylen Waddle on the COVID-19 list, as DeVante Parker and Isaiah Ford both operated ahead of him in the receiving game. The veteran wideout is set to become an unrestricted free agent come 2022, and based on his underwhelming performance this season even when given opportunities, it would appear unlikely that he re-signs in Miami.

Dolphins' Albert Wilson: Does little with six targets
Rotowire
Wilson secured five of six targets for 17 yards during Sunday's win over the Panthers.
Wilson essentially operated as a security blanket for Tua Tagovailoa in the passing game, while Jaylen Waddle dominated the high-value targets. Even with DeVante Parker (shoulder) and Will Fuller (finger) both still out of the lineup, Wilson only handled 46 percent of offensive snaps Week 12. Heading into a matchup against the Giants, Wilson can safely be left off the fantasy radar except in particularly deep formats.

Dolphins' Albert Wilson: Makes three grabs Week 11
Rotowire
Wilson secured three of four targets for 18 yards during Sunday's win over the Jets.
Wilson also handled one carry for a loss of three yards, and he returned two kicks. Jaylen Waddle and Mack Hollins overshadowed Wilson during Sunday's divisional win, just one week after the veteran had acted as Miami's receiving yardage leader. It's unclear whether either of DeVante Parker (shoulder) or Will Fuller (finger) will manage to return in Week 12, however, so Wilson could end up positioned for another start.

Dolphins' Albert Wilson: Receiving yardage leader in win
Rotowire
Wilson brought in four of five targets for 87 yards in the Dolphins' 22-10 win over the Ravens on Thursday night.
Wilson paced the Dolphins in receiving yardage while co-leading the team in receptions. He also recorded a critical 64-yard grab late in the fourth quarter after the Ravens had closed to within five points that helped set up a Tua Tagovailoa game-sealing one-yard touchdown run. Wilson's moment in the spotlight Thursday was rare, considering he came into the contest with all of eight catches on the campaign and his yardage tally was a season high. While the breakout effort was certainly encouraging, there's simply no guarantee he'll come anywhere near close to replicating it in a Week 11 road battle against the Jets a week from Sunday.

Dolphins' Albert Wilson: Targeted twice in win
Rotowire
Wilson secured one of two targets for 11 yards in the Dolphins' 17-9 win over the Texans on Sunday.
Wilson was barely involved on offense, even with all of DeVante Parker (shoulder), Will Fuller (finger) and Preston Williams (coach's decision) sidelined. The veteran can safely be left off the fantasy radar as Miami prepares for a Thursday night matchup against Baltimore.

Dolphins' Albert Wilson: Completely uninvolved
Rotowire
Wilson was not targeted during Sunday's 30-28 loss to the Falcons.
The veteran wideout only played three offensive snaps during Sunday's narrow loss, despite Miami's offense being without both DeVante Parker (shoulder) and Will Fuller (finger). Wilson hasn't provided any reason to consider him for a fantasy roster spot this season.
