When veteran backup Jacoby Brissett took over in Week 6, he found a friend in Wilson and TE Trey McBride. Brissett was more patient in the pocket than Murray, who would dart from the protection quickly, then look to throw or flat-out run for yardage.

Brissett's pocket patience unlocked Wilson's production; connection set to continue.

When veteran backup Jacoby Brissett took over in Week 6, he found a friend in Michael Wilson and TE Trey McBride. Brissett was more patient in the pocket than Kyler Murray, who would dart from protection quickly. Wilson suddenly was targeted more, which increased his catches. In five games, Wilson had double-digit targets, including a season-high 18 in Week 10 against the San Francisco 49ers. The Brissett-Wilson connection is on track to continue for at least one more season.
