According to Ian Rapoport of NFL Network, the Cincinnati Bengals have signed LB Logan Wilson to a four-year extension worth up to $37.25 million.
Fantasy Impact
Wilson's PFF tackling grade of 90.0 was the third-best mark in the NFL in 2022, totaling 123 tackles in 15 games. A third-round pick in 2020, Wilson has been a solid contributor in the middle of the Bengals' defenses, including on multiple deep playoff runs, though he broke out in 2022. The Bengals lock in some solid consistency in the middle of their defense for the long-term future and continue to figure out deals before the inevitable monster contract owed to Joe Burrow.
Cincinnati Bengals linebacker Logan Wilson is active for Monday Night Football against the Cleveland Browns.
Fantasy Impact
Wilson hurt his shoulder back in Week 6 and was expected to be sidelined for two to five weeks. He is returning right at the two week mark, just in time for a divisional battle against the Cleveland Browns. Wilson is a strong LB1 option when he sees a full complement of snaps, but he may see a slightly scaled-back workload in his first game back. Akeem Davis-Gaither will see a reduced role with Wilson returning.
Cincinnati Bengals linebacker Logan Wilson is considered week to week with a shoulder injury.
Fantasy Impact
Wilson is a major part of the Bengals defense, so his loss cannot be understated. According to Jeremy Fowler of ESPN, the expected timeline is 2-5 weeks. Cincinnati will likely push Germaine Pratt into a near every snap role while handing an expanded role to Akeem Davis-Gaither. Pratt is an LB2 option with Wilson sidelined, while Davis-Gaither will be more of an LB3 option for those who need bye-week help.
