Wilson expected to miss 2-5 weeks

Bengals LB Logan Wilson is expected to miss at least the next 2 games and potentially more than a month with the right-shoulder injury that knocked him out of Sunday's win over the Saints. It's the same shoulder he injured last season, which required surgery after the year. ESPN's Jeremy Fowler reports that the latest injury is less severe and that "around 2-5 weeks [is] considered a fair window of return." Last year's shoulder injury cost Wilson 3 games before he returned to play every snap in his final regular-season appearance and throughout the playoffs. If this injury isn't as bad, then perhaps we should be optimistic for a return on the shorter end of the timeline. Whether to stash or dump Wilson will depend heavily on the size and scoring of your league as well as roster size and IDP lineup positions. Germaine Pratt and Akeem Davis-Gaither figure to lead Cincinnati LBs while Wilson is out.
