LARAMIE — Former Wyoming linebacker Logan Wilson made headlines this week after Cincinnati announced plans to reduce his snaps in favor of a rookie. Instead of letting the news affect him, Wilson handled it like a pro, mentoring his young teammate and making an impact when given the opportunity. He finished with four tackles and a pass defended in the Bengals’ 33-31 victory over Pittsburgh. Through seven weeks, Wilson owns 41 tackles, four passes defended and a fumble recovery for 3-4 Cincinnati.
Check out how the other former Wyoming Cowboys did in the NFL last week below.
