Defensive coordinator Brian Flores' scheme seems like an ideal fit to maximize Wilson's talents, though Blake Cashman and Ivan Pace will be the favorites to open 2025 as the starters at inside linebacker. Even in a rotational role, though, Wilson could be capable of underrated production totals. Read Past Outlooks
