Eric Wilson

Vikings signed LB Eric Wilson, formerly of the Packers.

Wilson started 12 games for the Packers last season and is now set to return to the Vikings, with whom he spent the first four years of his career. An eight-year vet of the league, Wilson has primarily served as a backup and special teams player, starting in just 39 of the 125 games he’s appeared in during his career. But for Green Bay last year, he had the second-most defensive snaps (556) of his career, and his 65.8 defensive grade per PFF was one of the highest marks of his career. It’s unlikely Wilson will be tabbed as a starter in 2025, but he has the experience to step in at a moment’s notice for the Vikings and perform at a serviceable level.
