Will debut for Dallas on MNF
Wilson is active for Monday's game against the Raiders.
Analysis: Wilson is past a calf injury that caused him to miss one regular-season game with the Bengals before being traded to the Cowboys in early November. With an extra week of practices under his belt courtesy of the Cowboys' Week 10 bye, Wilson should play a prominent role on defense alongside Shemar James and Kenneth Murray. Wilson posted 46 tackles (19 solo), four pass defenses and one fumble recovery across eight regular-season games with the Bengals prior to his trade.

Not on injury report
Wilson (calf) was not listed on Thursday's injury report, Nick Harris of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram reports.
Analysis: Prior to being traded from Cincinnati to Dallas at the deadline, Wilson was inactive for the Bengals' Week 9 matchup with the Bears due to a calf injury. Now a member of the Cowboys and coming off a bye week, Wilson appears healthy and ready to slot in as the starting weak-side linebacker for Monday's matchup with the Raiders.

Headed to Dallas
The Cowboys acquired Wilson (calf) from the Bengals on Tuesday in exchange for a 2026 seventh-round draft pick, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: Wilson, who requested to be dealt last month after his snaps had decreased, is thus in line to move from one struggling defense to another. Once he moves past the calf issue that sidelined him in Week 9, the 29-year-old will provided a needed boost to the Cowboys linebacker corps. Wilson will be under contract through 2027 after signing a four-year, $36 million extension with the Bengals in July 2023. In eight games with the Bengals this season, Wilson has recorded 46 tackles, and he notched at…read more

Inactive for Week 9
Wilson (calf) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Bears.
Analysis: Wilson's absence comes as little surprise after he was unable to practice this week due to the calf injury before being listed as doubtful heading into Sunday. Before succumbing to the injury, the veteran linebacker had seen his playing time get scaled back in each of the past three weeks while the Bengals opened up more snaps for rookies Demetrius Knight and Barrett Carter. As a result of the drop in playing time, Wilson put in a request for a trade, and Dianna Russini of The Athletic relays…read more

Doubtful for Sunday
Wilson (calf) is listed as doubtful ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Bears, Paul Dehner Jr. of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: The veteran linebacker from Wyoming didn't practice all week due to a calf injury and is now expected to miss his first game of the season Sunday. With both Wilson and Oren Burks (groin, questionable) dealing with injuries ahead of the Week 9 matchup, Joe Giles-Harris is expected to have a larger role in Cincinnati's inside-linebacker corps.

Remains sidelined Thursday
Wilson (calf) remained a non-participant at Thursday's practice, Ben Baby of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Wilson hasn't missed a game this season, but he's in danger of being absent for Sunday's game against the Bears. His absence from practice could be linked to the linebacker's recent trade request, as the Nov. 4 trade deadline is fast approaching.

Working through calf injury
Wilson did not participate in Wednesday's practice due to a calf injury, Paul Dehner Jr. of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Wilson may have picked up the injury during the Bengals' Week 8 loss against the Jets, when he logged five tackles (two solo). However, his omission from Wednesday's practice could also be due to the trade request he made this past Thursday after seeing his playing time on defense dip significantly in Weeks 6 and 7. Wilson's practice participation over the next two days will be worth monitoring ahead of Sunday's game against the Bears.

Requests trade from Cincinnati
Wilson requested a trade from the Bengals on Thursday, Ben Baby of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Wilson has started all seven games to this point in the season, but he's been a starter in name only for Cincinnati, as he's logged just 19.7 and 45.6 percent of the defensive snaps in each of the past two contests. The Bengals have moved in the direction of rookies Barrett Carter and Demetrius Knight at linebacker. With Wilson's playing time fading, he's looking for a new opportunity elsewhere. Wilson is signed through the 2027 season.

Remains odd man out
Wilson recorded four tackles (one solo) and one pass defensed in Thursday's 33-31 win over the Steelers.
Analysis: Wilson has been usurped by rookie Barrett Carter, with Carter and Demetrius Knight forming the starting inside-linebacker duo. Wilson did see the field for 26 of 57 defensive snaps (45.6 percent), but he's no longer a reliable IDP contributor.

Benched in loss to Packers
Wilson was benched in favor of rookie Barrett Carter in Sunday's loss to the Packers, Charlie's Chalkboard reports. Wilson still managed four tackles in the snaps he did play.
Analysis: Wilson struggled, especially in coverage, last week against the Lions, and the Bengals decided to turn to Carter full-time instead. Barring an injury to Carter or fellow rookie Demetrius Knight, this appears to be a full-time change.

Wilson has 20 tackles (10 solo) and three defensed passes through three contests this season.

Wilson (ankle) was a limited practice participant Wednesday.

Makes seven stops vs. Browns
Wilson tallied seven total tackles (four solo) and two passes defended in Sunday's 17-16 win over the Browns.
Analysis: Wilson had to leave Sunday's contest for a brief moment while being evaluated for a concussion, but he remained one of Cincinnati's most impactful defenders. The Wyoming product had his 2024 campaign cut short due to a knee injury, but across his 11 appearances, he still managed 104 total tackles, two forced fumbles and one pass defended. Wilson is likely to continue serving as one of the Bengals' defensive leaders ahead of a Week 2 matchup with the Jaguars.

Wilson, who is questionable for Sunday's matchup against Pittsburgh due to a knee injury, isn't expected to play, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: Wilson didn't practice at all this week, but he was still deemed questionable heading into Sunday's matchup. If he misses the contest as expected, it will be a big loss for Cincinnati, as Wilson leads the team with 104 tackles while playing 100 percent of the squad's defensive snaps in nine of 11 games.

Analysis: Wilson played every single defensive snap during the Bengals' Week 11 loss to the Chargers, finishing with eight tackles (four solo) and one forced fumble. However, coming out of the Week 12 bye, it appears the 2020 third-round pick is now working through a knee injury, which forced him to be sidelined during Wednesday's practice.

With this extension, Wilson is set to remain as a key piece of a Bengals defense that finished sixth in rushing yards per game (106.6) and fifth in points allowed per game (20.1) last season.

Continues prolific production
Wilson recorded nine tackles (seven solo), including one sack, and a forced fumble during Saturday's 22-18 win over the Patriots.
Analysis: Wilson posted at least half a sack for the third game in a row, bringing down Mac Jones for a nine-yard loss to end New England's first offensive series of the game. The third-year linebacker also forced his first fumble of the season, though this near-turnover on the first play of the second half ultimately stayed with the Patriots after rolling out of bounds.

Continues massive production
Wilson posted 15 tackles (nine solo), including one sack, in Sunday's 34-23 victory versus the Buccaneers.
Analysis: Wilson has been a very consistent tackler for Cincinnati this season, though his production has exploded over the past two weeks with 32 combined tackles. The third-year linebacker has also taken on a larger pass-rushing role, logging all 1.5 of his sacks this season during this span as well.

Analysis: Wilson was initially considered week-to-week after being forced out of the Bengals' Week 6 win over the Saints due to a shoulder injury, so Taylor's comments are certainly encouraging.

Analysis: Wilson underwent a shoulder procedure in late February to clean up a torn labrum suffered in Week 13 of the 2021 campaign and he appears to be progressing as planned. Assuming he continues on that track, Wilson should resume his duties as the starting weakside linebacker in 2022.

Has shoulder procedure
Wilson recently underwent successful surgery to address a torn labrum in his shoulder, ESPN's Ben Baby reports.
Analysis: Last week's procedure took care of an injury that the starting linebacker sustained Week 13 of the 2021 campaign. Though Wilson -- who is signed by Cincinnati through 2023 -- was able to return to action Week 17 and was a key cog in the team's extended playoff run, his labrum issue ultimately required a procedure. With that in mind, a full recovery is expected for the 25-year-old, who racked up fantasy-worthy totals of 100 tackles and four picks over the course of 13 games this past season.

Three tackles in debut
Wilson had three tackles on 22 defensive snaps in his debut, playing mostly on third down, Jay Morrison of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Wilson and fellow rookie Akeem Davis-Gaither were asked to do a lot of work in pass coverage, with mixed results. Hunter Henry had five catches on eight targets for 73 yards, but Austin Ekeler had just one catch for three yards. That could also be a function of new Chargers quarterback Tyrod Taylor choosing to pull it down and run instead of dumping it off to Ekeler, but in the past, the Bengals linebackers were carved up by opposing running backs and tight ends in the passing game.
