After suffering a concussion in Saturday’s preseason loss to the Buffalo Bills, rookie linebacker Payton Wilson is out of protocol and declared himself ‘100 percent’ healthy. Speaking to reporters Thursday, Wilson said doctors have cleared him.

“I’m 100 percent. I’m ready to go,” Wilson said via The Trib’s Adamski.
