Electric Freshman Flash, But Injuries Slowed the Ceiling
Wilson burst onto the scene as a true freshman at Arizona, leading all FBS freshmen in total yards and finishing his college career with 3,038 rushing yards and 34 total touchdowns; his best trait was big-play burst, with 1,375 rushing yards and 16 TDs in the 2014 season. Reliable sources also note that foot and knee injuries limited him in later seasons, so the key question is durability, not talent—when healthy, he was a tackle-breaking, high-upside difference-maker who fit best in an offense that could keep him fresh and maximize his acceleration.
