Overview

  • Wilson announced his decision on Instagram on March 18, closing a career that spanned 83 games and six seasons.
  • He was a 2020 third-round pick (No. 65) who became a Bengals mainstay, finishing with roughly 565 tackles and 11 interceptions.
  • A pivotal figure in Cincinnati’s 2021 playoff run, he notched a key interception in Tennessee en route to the franchise’s Super Bowl LVI appearance.
  • After being voted a Bengals captain in 2025, his role diminished, leading to a trade to Dallas for a 2026 seventh-round pick and limited snaps across seven games.
  • Dallas waived him on Feb. 20 to clear about $6.5 million in cap space, and Wilson said retirement will allow more time with family and new fitness goals.
