Productive in tough season
Wilson recorded 71 tackles (39 solo) and a forced fumble while adding five passes defended, including two interceptions, over 15 regular-season games for the Cowboys in 2025.
ANALYSIS
Dallas had one of the worst defenses in the league, but Wilson was still able to produce decent numbers, with his pass defended and INT totals tying his career highs. The veteran safety did miss two games in the middle of the season with an elbow injury and dealt with other nagging issues throughout the year, and at 30 years old there may not be a huge market for his services in free agency. The Cowboys brought in a new defensive coordinator in Christian Parker, but Wilson might be viewed as an affordable stopgap in the secondary if the front office doesn't want to spend significant resources at the position.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2024
2023
2021
Wilson wasn't able to repeat his breakout 2022 campaign, but he still recorded 88 tackles and two interceptions in 15 games last season. He also failed to produce a sack after racking up 5.0 the year before. The 29-year-old thrived in Dan Quinn's scheme as a hybrid safety-linebacker, but new defensive coordinator Mike Zimmer may not use him the same way, putting Wilson's IDP utility in question in 2024 even if he seems locked into a starting role for Dallas.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Unlikely to stay put
According to Clarence Hill Jr. of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram, there isn't much optimism that Wilson and the Cowboys will agree to a contract extension.
ANALYSIS
Wilson started all 17 games for the Cowboys in 2022, but his asking price may be beyond what the team is willing to offer, especially with Dallas also attempting to re-sign a few key free agents at other positions. If Wilson walks away in free agency, Dallas would still have a combination of Jayron Kearse, Israel Mukuamu and Malik Hooker -- who's recovering from thumb surgery -- available at safety.
