Ahmad Bradshaw gives David Wilson some big props

Ahmad Bradshaw said he expects rookie RB David Wilson to have a big role in the wake of Andre Brown’s broken leg. Due to his troublesome feet, Bradshaw seems to know that he is not a true workhorse.

Wilson has some serious juice and can make huge plays anytime he touches the ball. ...
