Fantasy Focus Football on Emanuel Wilson

PodcastWeek 5 Fantasy Rankings: Who should you start & sit this week? | Fantasy FocusOctober 7, 2026

From the episode

Seattle really quickly. The old bait and switch made us think that maybe they were going to sign Joe Mixon. Surprise. No, they're not. It is still going to be Emmanuel Wilson. He's ranked as a top 20 running back for us this week. The second most added player off of waivers.
