Question: What are some of your strengths as a football player, and what are some of the things you’ve had to work at the hardest to become the player you are?
Answer: Speed and quickness are my strengths. I've had to work on fully understanding the plays. Also trying to transition back to playing after an injury has been a struggle (note: Wilson played his first game of the season last week against Nelsonville-York and broke off a 49-yard run the first time he touched the ball).
