Let go by Carolina
The Panthers released Wilson on Friday, Darin Gantt of the team's official site reports.
Analysis: Wilson signed a two-year deal with the Panthers in March 2022, but he fell out of the linebacker rotation completely last season as Carolina transitioned into a new defensive scheme. He posted a career-high 106 tackles with the Jaguars in 2021 and should garner plenty of interest as a free agent this summer.

Big day versus Niners
Wilson finished with nine tackles (seven solo), a sack and a forced fumble in Sunday's 37-15 loss to the 49ers.
Analysis: Wilson registered two tackles for loss in addition to his sack. The veteran also stripped George Kittle during the first quarter, setting the stage for a very productive performance.

Makes sack in Carolina debut
Wilson notched four tackles (two solo) and one sack during Sunday's 26-24 loss to the Browns.
Analysis: Wilson's time with the Panthers is off to a productive start, and he's coming off a career-best season of 106 tackles (59 solo). The 29-year-old will look to keep up his momentum against a revamped Giants O-line in Week 2.

Signs with Panthers
Wilson agreed to a two-year contract with the Panthers on Thursday, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: Wilson set a career high with 106 tackles (59 solo), three sacks, one interception and one forced fumble in 17 games for Jacksonville in 2021, and he was able to secure a multi-year deal in free agency. The 28-year-old should be a solid IDP option for Carolina in 2022 coming off last year's production.

Sets career high with 106 tackles
Wilson had five tackles (two solo), a sack, an interception and a forced fumble during Sunday's 26-11 win over the Colts.
Analysis: It was an eventful performance for Wilson, who played a prime role in helping stifle star tailback Jonathan Taylor in the unlikely victory. The 28-year-old joined Jacksonville on a one-year, $2 million deal in April 2021, and he'll return to free agency this offseason after posting career highs across the board with 106 tackles (59 solo), three sacks, five passes defensed, one interception and one forced fumble.

Removed from COVID-19 list
Wilson (illness) was activated off the reserve/COVID-19 list Friday.
Analysis: Wilson tested positive for the virus, but he was away from the team for only three days. The 28-year-old linebacker is expected to garner his usual starting inside-linebacker role against the Patriots in Week 17. On the season, Wilson has logged 99 tackles across 15 appearances.

Placed on reserve/COVID-19 list
Wilson (illness) was put on the reserve/COVID-19 list Tuesday.
Analysis: Wilson tested positive for COVID-19 and will enter the league's protocols . With both Wilson and Myles Jack (illness) on the COVID list, Shaquille Quarterman and Dakota Allen (shoulder) could step into starting roles at inside linebacker.

Cleared for Week 13
Wilson (ankle) doesn't carry an injury designation into Sunday's game against the Rams.
Analysis: Wilson hurt his ankle in last week's loss to Atlanta, but he's ready to go one week later. The 28-year-old linebacker needs seven tackles to match his career high of 81, set in 2019 with the Chiefs.

Departs with ankle injury
Wilson (ankle) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Falcons, John Reid of The Florida Times-Union reports.
Analysis: Wilson's departure is a big loss for the Jaguars' defense as it leaves them without their leading tackler. Jihad Ward and K'Lavon Chaisson should see more snaps in the meantime.

Double-digit tackles
Wilson had 12 tackles (nine solo) in a 23-20 win over the Dolphins on Sunday.
Analysis: Wilson's 12 tackles were a season high. He only played 73 percent of the defensive snaps, down from the typical mid-80s range he'd been logging, making it that much more impressive. The Jaguars are off Week 7 following their return from London, but Wilson will try to top his season high in Week 8 against the Seahawks.

Nine tackles Week 3
Wilson had nine tackles (six solo) during Sunday's 31-19 loss to the Cardinals.
Analysis: Wilson played a season-high 88 percent of the defense snaps Sunday and finished second on the team in stops. Myles Jack is the preferred IDP option in Jacksonville, but Wilson isn't far behind with 22 total tackles through the first three games of the season.

Thrust into starting role
Wilson is expected to take on a starting role after Joe Schobert was traded from the Browns to the Steelers on Thursday, John Shipley of SI.com reports.
Analysis: Wilson signed with Jacksonville in April after he spent the last two seasons in Kansas City, and he's in line for a prominent role as a starting inside linebacker alongside Myles Jack following Thursday's trade. The 2015 fourth-rounder appeared in 13 games in 2020 and tallied 73 tackles (46 solo), a pass defense and a forced fumble.

Signs deal with Jaguars
The Jaguars signed Wilson Friday.
Analysis: Since entering the league in 2015, Wilson spent time with both Dallas and Kansas City's defensive lines. The 27-year-old reached career highs in tackles (81) and sacks (1.5) during his 2019 campaign with the Chiefs. While Wilson failed to record a sack in 2020, he compiled 73 tackles and will now compete for an increased role in Jacksonville.

Solid showing in 2020
Wilson posted 73 tackles (46 solo) and forced one fumble over his 13 games played during the 2020 regular-season campaign.
Analysis: Wilson didn't quite match the 81 tackles he amassed last season and didn't finish with at least half a sack for the first time since his rookie campaign back in 2015, when he rarely saw the field. Still, he did post the best per-game tackle average of his career and forced a fumble for a third straight season. Wilson's two-year pact with the Chiefs expires this offseason, so it remains to be seen what uniform he will don next season.

Ready for Sunday's contest
Wilson (knee) won't carry an injury designation into Sunday's game against the Chargers.
Analysis: Wilson will be available for the season finale against the Chargers after missing the last three games. The Chiefs are resting a few starters, but Wilson may not be afforded that luxury because linebackers Ben Niemann (hamstring) and Anthony Hitchens (COVID-19 protocol) will both sit out in Week 17.

Practices in limited fashion
Wilson (knee) was a limited participant at Wednesday's practice, Herbie Teope of The Kansas City Star reports.
Analysis: Wilson hasn't practiced since suffering a knee injury during a Week 13 win over the Broncos. With this significant step in recovery, Wilson could return to the lineup for Sunday's season finale against the Broncos. However, the Chiefs could rest their starting strong-side linebacker to ensure he's at 100 percent after the team's playoff bye.

Sitting out against Falcons
Wilson (knee) has been ruled out for Sunday's game versus the Falcons, Nate Taylor of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Wilson hasn't practiced since a Week 13 win over the Broncos, and he's set to miss a third straight contest. Ben Niemann has started the last two games at strong-side linebacker in Wilson's place, and he should remain in that role in Week 16.

Missing another game
Wilson (knee) is ruled out for Sunday's game against the Saints.
Analysis: Wilson's lingering knee injury will cause him to miss the second game of his career. In his stead, rookie second-round pick Willie Gay should again handle an increased role.

Sitting out Sunday
Wilson (knee) won't play in Sunday's game versus the Dolphins.
Analysis: Wilson will miss his first game since being selected by the Cowboys in the fourth round of the 2015 NFL Draft. Through 12 games this year, he has posted 68 tackles, a pass breakup and a forced fumble. In his place, Willie Gay is expected to start at strong-side linebacker Sunday.

Posts double-digit tackles in Week 2
Wilson led the Chiefs with 12 tackles (five solo) in Sunday's win over the Chargers.
Analysis: Wilson was the only Chiefs defender to reach double digits in the tackles column, which is slightly surprising from a guy who played just 34 percent of the snaps in Week 1. He also temporarily knocked himself out of Sunday's contest following a hit on the Chargers' Justin Herbert but passed all concussion protocols and rejoined the action. This could suggest he's in line for an even larger snap share when he's available for a full contest.

Moves into key role in 2019
Wilson logged a career-high 715 defensive snaps in 2019, resulting in career-best marks for tackles (81, 52 solo) and sacks (1.5).
Analysis: Wilson is the second linebacker to come over from the Cowboys and see a major increase in role, following directly in the path of Anthony Hitchens from a year earlier. While a buyout wouldn't cost the Chiefs much, Wilson remains under contract for the 2020 season and likely will retain his role as the team's strongside linebacker. Assuming he stays healthy, there's reason to believe he can repeat his 2019 effort next year.
