2026 Projections
Signed a four-year, $25.01 million contract with the Raiders in May of 2023.
Fifth-year option declined
The Saints declined Wilson's fifth-year option Monday, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
ANALYSIS
As the seventh overall pick in 2023 Draft and a defensive end, Wilson's fifth-year option would have come in at $14.475 million. The pass rusher's career has been disappointing thus far in relation to the draft capital invested in him, so it makes sense that the Saints' trade acquisition is more of a one-year flyer on a once-promising and athletic player and not a commitment to pursue his future. If Wilson can revive his career in 2026 with a better season, the team may look to keep his services in New Orleans long term.

2023 Fantasy Outlook
Wilson, who earned First-Team All-American honors last season at Texas Tech despite breaking his foot late in the season, opened training camp on the active/non-football injury list after the Raiders selected him with the seventh overall pick in the 2023 NFL Draft. Given he continues to progress in the rehab from his foot injury, Wilson figures to eventually rotate in at defensive end behind starters Maxx Crosby and Chandler Jones.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Learning from Crosby
Wilson, the Raiders' seventh overall pick in 2023, has been leaning on star veteran defensive lineman Maxx Crosby for guidance this offseason, Paul Gutierrez of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Going into his rookie campaign, Wilson was recovering from a broken right foot suffered during his final college season at Texas Tech. He still managed to appear in all 17 games and recorded 29 tackles, including 3.5 sacks, in a part-time role. However, Wilson is expecting an exponential leap in Year 2, with the fact he's now fully recovered and has been obtaining plenty of guidance on diet, recovery and work habits from Crosby expected to fuel that rise.
