NFL Rumors: Rising Defender Leaves Patriots For NFC Team

The New England Patriots reportedly made an offer in hopes of retaining Mack Wilson, but ultimately the impactful linebacker opted to head to the desert.
Wilson agreeded to a three-year deal with the Arizona Cardinals on Monday, as first reported by ESPN’s Mike Reiss.
NFL Media’s Ian Rapoport reported Wilson’s pact is for three years and $12.75 million with incentives up to $15 million.

Wilson chose Arizona over New England as the Patriots also made a three-year offer, according to MassLive’s Mark Daniels. Daniels issued a follow-up report of his own Monday evening and noted the Patriots’ offer was “close.”
The 26-year-old Wilson played the last two seasons in New England after the Cleveland Browns traded him in March 2022. A fifth-round draft pick in 2019, the Alabama product played all 34 regular-season games during his tenure with the Patriots (four starts).
