“Wilson will be making his 10th Pro Bowl appearance (2012-15, 2017-21, 2024), which is tied for fifth-most among quarterbacks in NFL history.

Wilson started the final 11 games of the 2024 season after coming back from a calf injury he suffered at the start of training camp.

Wilson completed 214 of 336 passes (63.7%) for 2,482 yards and 16 touchdowns and five interceptions. He also had 43 rushes for 155 yards and two touchdowns.

Wilson has started all 199 games he has appeared in, completing 3,882 of 6,001 passes (64.7%) for 46,135 yards, 350 touchdowns and 111 interceptions. Wilson is one of three quarterbacks in NFL history to throw for at least 2,400 yards in each of their first 13 seasons in the League. He also has more wins (130) in his first 13 NFL seasons, including the postseason, than every quarterback in NFL history, excluding Tom Brady (153), Peyton Manning (150), Ben Roethlisberger (136) and Brett Favre (136).” (NFL)

Wilson has gone to the most Pro Bowls of any player in NC State history, and is 1 of 15 former Wolfpack players to earn the honor.
