This is honestly “Pay Per View” quality content and if the Dolphins promised they’d put a microphone on rookie defensive tackle Christian Wilkins on every game, we’d probably the fee. Wilkins’ exciting day in Week 16 against the Cincinnati Bengals was made even more entertaining courtesy of being strapped with a wire — the end result is a few minutes of trash talking glory for Dolphins fans everywhere.
Wilkins’ passion for the game was referenced as a big selling point from this coaching staff when the decision was made to draft him in the 1st-round, That enthusiasm comes through loud and clear as Wilkins sings, hums, quips and smack talks his way through Miami’s thrilling 38-35 win against Cincinnati.

Whether it was clarifying with Bengals offensive lineman Michael Jordan whether or not he was the “real” Michael Jordan, catcalling the Bengals kicker to miss the upcoming kick, singing “It Takes Two” after blowing up a double team or insisting to Bengals defensive back Shawn Williams that he was mad just before the snap, Wilkins brought it on Sunday with his play and his smack talk.
Consider this our formal petition to wire Wilkins for the Patriots game. And every game of the 2020 season. And every game after that. If this is the content we can come to expect, why not?
