Russell Wilson puts together record-breaking 3-game stretch for a rookie QB, fantasy value rising
Seattle Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson is the first rookie in NFL history with a passer rating of 125 or better in three straight games. We break down the fantasy implications.
Mike Ehrmann
Wilson threw for 224 yards and two touchdowns on Sunday in Seattle's loss to the Miami Dolphins. In the last three weeks for the Seahawks, Wilson has combined to throw for seven touchdowns and no interceptions. Seattle faces the Chicago Bears in Week 13.
Fantasy Impact: Wilson isn’t putting up huge yardage totals but is becoming a more reliable fantasy option. He has thrown two or more touchdowns in each of his last four games.
Wilson has a tough matchup in Week 13 against Chicago but he should not be written off considering how well he is playing. Wilson is a fringe fantasy starter in most weeks with added value in dynasty or keeper formats.
