Wilkinson signed a one-year, $1.9 million deal with the Falcons this offseason after serving as the Bears' swing tackle last year.

2021 Fantasy Outlook
After being signed by Denver as an undrafted free agent in 2017, Wilkinson spent four years with the Broncos before being signed by the Bears this offseason to provide depth at tackle. With Teven Jenkins and German Ifedi expected to start at tackle, Wilkinson will likely compete with Bobby Massie in case the team suffers an injury to one of the starters.
