Is Michael Wilson playing today? Why Cardinals WR is off to slow start in Week 16

The Arizona Cardinals have gotten a massive contribution from wide receiver Michael Wilson over the last handful of weeks.

In the last five games, Wilson has posted 100 or more yards or a touchdown in four of them, showing he is deserving of more looks in the passing game.

However, Wilson is off to a lackluster start in the Week 16 game against the Atlanta Falcons. Here's a closer look at what's going on.

Is Michael Wilson playing today?

Yes, Wilson is active and healthy, he just wasn't targeted on the opening drive.

We know how this usually goes. Wilson doesn't ever do much when Marvin Harrison Jr. plays, so that is an obvious concern.

Hopefully that is not the case on Sunday, though.
