2024 Fantasy Outlook
From an IDP perspective, Wilson had a banner year, with a career-high 135 tackles, four interceptions, three forced fumbles and a sack. However, he also faced unwanted scrutiny due to his tackling form in a Thursday night loss to the Ravens, when Mark Andrews got hurt on a Wilson tackle that was classified as a "hip-drop" tackle, a maneuver that will be penalized in 2024. Wilson also was more vulnerable in coverage - opposing quarterbacks completed 36 of 46 passes when targeting Wilson's coverage, good for 365 yards and four touchdowns. Read Past Outlooks

Wilson (knee) was placed on injured reserve Friday.
ANALYSIS
Wilson's shift to IR comes as no surprise, as he underwent a cleanup procedure on his knee Thursday and is expected to miss the remainder of the regular season. The 28-year-old could return for the postseason if the 4-8 Bengals miraculously make the playoffs, though that appears to be a longshot. Wilson accumulated 104 total tackles, one pass defended and two forced fumbles in 11 appearances this season.

Past Fantasy Outlooks

2022
2020
Wilson has become the heart of the Bengals' defense, collecting a career-high 123 tackles and 2.5 sacks in 2022 while remaining an asset in coverage. Wilson's background as a high-school wideout shows in his speed and athleticism, but his instincts as a tackler are also impressive, making him a true three-down linebacker. Heading into the final year of his rookie contract, there's no sign of acrimony between the team and player the way there was with Jessie Bates, so Wilson doesn't figure to see any change in how he's used. The only question is his health, as he's missed eight games in his three-year career.
Wilson suffered a torn shoulder labrum in Week 13 of 2021 and the recovery from surgery might make him a close call for the start of training camp. He was a four-year starter at Wyoming, and through 1,018 NFL defensive snaps he has 133 tackles, two sacks and six interceptions. Wilson’s standout athleticism and coverage skills should go to good use as the Bengals’ high- scoring offense forces opponents to throw.
The Bengals had a second-round grade on Wilson heading into the 2020 Draft and were thrilled when he was available to them with the first pick of the third round, 65th overall. The four-year starter at Wyoming logged three triple-digit tackle seasons there and excelled in coverage, a particular sticking point for the Bengals' linebacking corps the last two seasons. He'll likely slot right in at strongside linebacker in the Bengals' 4-3 set-up, most likely alongside former Raven Josh Bynes and second-year player Germaine Pratt.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Gets support from head coach
LBCincinnati Bengals
November 18, 2023
Head coach Zac Taylor defended Wilson on Friday after the linebacker was involved in tackles and plays that led to multiple injuries to Ravens players Thursday night, Ben Baby of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Taylor commented that Wilson is "a guy I'm proud to coach and proud to be a part of this team." The Bengals linebacker took down Ravens tight end Mark Andrews using a hip-drop, a tackling technique that, while legal, has gained scrutiny among NFL player safety personnel and owners. Ravens head coach John Harbaugh posited after Thursday's game whether the hip-drop Wilson used on Andrews that caused a season-ending fibula and ankle injury to the tight end was necessary. Harbaugh also noted that the Ravens are going to have Wilson's tackle on quarterback Lamar Jackson -- which also led to an injury, but no offensive snaps missed -- reviewed by the league office.
