The Bears could turn to someone in the NFC North for some help at safety. With Chicago searching for a potential replacement for Ha Ha Clinton-Dix, Wilson could be the answer for the Bears. Wilson is coming off one of his better years, where he had 98 tackles, five passes defensed, a sack and two fumble recoveries in 13 starts.

Wilson’s versatility is something that could benefit the Bears defense. Wilson’s played both strong safety and free safety, as well as cornerback. He’s even played some linebacker. Defensive coordinator Chuck Pagano could use him in different spots to help the defense.
