Donovan Wilson's Making a Case to be a Starter in 2021
The Dallas Cowboys haven’t had very many bright spots in 2020, but second-year Safety Donovan Wilson is certainly starting to look like one. In fact, his play this season might just earn him a starting job next season in 2021.
After missing the previous two weeks with a groin injury Donovan Wilson was entering Week 15 already with three forced fumbles under his belt, two of which he recovered. Now he can add an interception to his resume after picking off San Francisco 49ers QB Nick Mullins.
The former Texas A&M safety is putting together quite a resume in his second year with the Dallas Cowboys. It took injuries and poor play for the coaching staff to finally get him more involved, but once they did he started making his presence known on the backend of the defense.
To date he’s played a little over half of the defensive snaps this season and about the same on special teams. But, that’s been enough for him to showcase the kind of playmaker he could be as a full-time starter. Surprisingly enough, it’s not going unnoticed.
