Michael Wilson discusses role change with Arizona Cardinals offense

Arizona Cardinals receiver Michael Wilson spoke about his new role as the 'Z' receiver during training camp. After a breakout season in 2025, where he recorded over 1,000 receiving yards, Wilson noted the differences in offensive schemes under new head coach Mike LaFleur compared to former offensive coordinator Drew Petzing. While Wilson previously contributed significantly as the 'X' receiver due to injuries to teammates, he emphasized that his current responsibilities involve a different approach, more aligned with the role played by receivers like Puka Nacua and Cooper Kupp in the past. As the regular season approaches, the effectiveness of this offensive transition is awaited.
