C.J. Wilson: 2011 Green Bay Packers Evaluation and Report Card

C.J. Wilson 1) Introduction: Wilson is another Packers defensive lineman that was just another guy in 2011.

AGE: 24 Career Stats 3) Expectations coming into the season: Capable backup. Wilson was expected to fill in if a starter got injured and give regulars like B.J.
