John Wilson is a veteran Savannah State DB with proven ball skills and playmaking pedigree
John Wilson’s value for Savannah State is the kind coaches love: steady, experienced, and built on real production. In the 2012 season, he led the Tigers with 4 interceptions, added 7 pass breakups, and even blocked a kick; he also posted 68 tackles, showing he can tackle well and stay active near the ball. His measured athletic profile points to decent speed and explosiveness, though not elite agility, so he fits best as a physical, instinctive defensive back who can read routes and make timely plays rather than just chase highlight-reel speed.
