Michael Wilson and the Cardinals could be closing in on a new deal
Michael Wilson and the Cardinals could be closing in on a new deal. Arizona's breakout receiver is entering the final year of his rookie contract, and negotiations suddenly appear to be gaining momentum. Wilson broke out last season with 78 catches for 1,006 yards and 7 touchdowns. Cardinals GM Monti Ossenfort has called Wilson a player the organization wants around long-term. ESPN reports there has been movement in negotiations and something could come together within days. Wilson went from a third-round pick to one of Arizona's most important offensive weapons. Now the Cardinals have a chance to lock him up before another big season potentially drives his price even higher.
Corroborating: ESPN reporting says there has been movement in extension talks, while Arizona has publicly indicated Wilson is a player it wants to keep long-term.
