From the article

Wilson is a former third-round pick, and all anybody expected out of him was to complement guys like Harrison. Going into Week 6 last year, he had very few targets and even less receptions. But once Kyler Murray became injured and Jacoby Brissett took over, his numbers increased. He ended up with highs in every category of his career, including getting over the 1,000-yard plateau. Now, he has a new huge contract, so the franchise is accepting that he can be 'The Face' of the franchise
