Finds new home in New England
Published: 2023-12-27
The Patriots claimed Wilson off waivers Wednesday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Wilson was waived by Arizona on Tuesday, and it didn't take him long to latch on with a new organization. The third-year cornerback was a starter for the Cardinals over the first 11 weeks of the campaign and has tallied 52 tackles (41 solo) and four defensed passes on the season. The Patriots are managing a bevy of health issues in their secondary, including to cornerbacks Myles Bryant (chest), Shaun Wade (illness) and Jonathan Jones (knee), so Wilson may be needed to step into a decent amount of snaps this Sunday in Buffalo.

Let go by Arizona
Published: 2023-12-26
The Cardinals waived Wilson on Tuesday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Wilson had started the Cardinals' first 11 games this season, but after going four consecutive contests without recording a start or a stat, the 24-year-old has been let go. The Florida product had spent his entire NFL career in Arizona, appearing in 43 games and logging 158 total tackles, 18 pass deflections and three interceptions.
Logs season-high tackle total
Published: 2023-10-10
Wilson recorded 11 tackles (eight solo) in Sunday's 34-20 loss to the Bengals.
Wilson had not recorded more than six tackles in the Cards' previous four games. He is still looking for his first interception of the season, but he is remaining an active defender. The cornerback has also been reliable, as he was on the field for all 79 snaps. It was his third time not leaving the field on defense this year.
Participating this spring
Published: 2023-06-12
Wilson (neck) has been participating in Arizona's offseason program.
The 24-year-old cornerback has moved past the neck injury that bothered him last December/January and should keep his starting job for a Cardinals defense that looks rather weak at his position. Wilson has started 26 of his 28 games since Arizona made him a fourth-round pick in the 2020 NFL Draft, recording 106 tackles, 14 pass defenses and three interceptions (one returned for a touchdown). He and Rashad Fenton are the only corners on the roster that can claim double-digit starts in the NFL.
Won't play Week 18
Published: 2023-01-06
Wilson (neck) has been ruled out for Sunday's game versus the 49ers, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.
Wilson has been dealing with a neck injury since the Week 14 loss, and he'll now be sidelined for the third time over the final four games of the regular season. The 23-year-old logged 58 tackles, 10 passes defended and three interceptions, including a pick-six across 14 games, all of which represent career highs. With Antonio Hamilton (hip) also remaining out Week 18, the Cardinals could be down to just two available cornerbacks between Christian Matthew and Jace Whittaker, as reserve Josh Jackson (hamstring) is also considered questionable to play versus San Francisco.
Won't play Week 17
Published: 2023-01-01
Wilson (neck) is inactive for Sunday's game against Atlanta.
Wilson suffered a neck stinger last week against Tampa Bay and was deemed by Arizona head coach Kliff Kingsbury to be day-to-day. The cornerback logged a limited practice session Thursday, but that was sandwiched around Wednesday and Friday DNPs. Jace Whittaker appears in line to start in Wilson's place Sunday.
Questionable to play Sunday
Published: 2022-12-30
Wilson (neck) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game versus the Falcons, Tyler Drake of ArizonaSports.com reports.
Wilson was forced out with a stinger in his neck during the Week 16 loss to Tampa Bay, and he was deemed day-to-day by Arizona coach Kliff Kingsbury heading into Week 17 prep. The second-year cornerback then logged one limited session Thursday sandwiched between DNPs on Wednesday and Friday, so his official availability will come down to the pregame inactives list released 90 minutes ahead of Sunday's 1 pm E.T. kickoff. With fellow starter Antonio Hamilton (hip) ruled out, the Cardinals' secondary could be left with three available cornerbacks if Wilson ultimately sits out.
Practices in limited fashion
Published: 2022-12-29
Wilson (neck) was limited in Thursday's practice, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.
Wilson, who sustained a stinger in his neck this past weekend against the Buccaneers, was able to upgrade to limited activity Thursday following his DNP designation on Wednesday's practice estimate. After Arizona's Week 16 loss, the second-year pro said that he felt fine, per Josh Weinfuss of ESPN.com, so it currently sounds as if he'll continue operating as one of the Cardinals' starting cornerbacks versus the Falcons on New Year's Day.
