As a junior defensive end, Mark Wilson was one of the many players tasked with improving Cincinnati’s sorry pass rush in 2016. In 2015, the team accumulated all of 13 sacks and Wilson was given plenty of chances to help improve on that number, playing in all 12 games and starting in six this past season. Its difficult to say Wilson really had a major impact on the pass rush, since he only finished with one sack and 2.5 tackles for loss, down from two and 5.5 the year before. However, he set a career-high in tackles (25), was often chased quarterbacks out of the pocket and also forced and recovered a fumble while recording the rare pass defended from the defensive line.
