There is a lot of buzz about Arizona Cardinals rookie receiver Michael Wilson. This perhaps comes from comments that had coach Jonathan Gannon made during the final week of OTAs.
The third-round pick has made a ton of progress.
“Michael has come in as a rookie and really, ‘hey man, this is what has been expected and this is what we are expecting from you. Here’s your role,’ and he has taken to it,” Gannon said.
“He’s doing a really good job, especially for a rookie,” Gannon continued. “I think in any offense, it moves a little fast and, where we are today, he’s light years ahead of when he came in for rookie minicamp, and that’s good to see.”
With the release of DeAndre Hopkins, he should be given opportunities.
Mandatory minicamp is over and now there are six weeks until training camp. Hopefully, he can continue the growth and find playing time and a role for the regular season.
