The NFL lifted Wilson's four-game suspension Tuesday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.
EDGE Analysis
The 30-year-old was released by the Panthers back in March and was then hit with a four-game suspension last month for violating the personal conduct policy. Wilson is now free to play if he can find a team to take a shot on him. He has 127 games of experience, including 73 starts on defense.

The NFL suspended Wilson on Thursday four weeks for violating its personal conduct policy, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.
EDGE Analysis
Wilson was released by Carolina during the offseason and has yet to find another opportunity since. The suspension will make it even more difficult for him to get another shot at a roster spot.

The Panthers released Wilson on Friday, Darin Gantt of the team's official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Wilson signed a two-year deal with the Panthers in March of 2022, but he fell out of the linebacker rotation completely last season as Carolina transitioned into a new defensive scheme. He posted a career-high 106 tackles with the Jaguars in 2021 and should garner plenty of interest as a free agent this summer.

Wilson notched four tackles (two solo) and one sack during Sunday's 26-24 loss to the Browns.
EDGE Analysis
Wilson's time with the Panthers is off to a productive start, and he's coming off a career-best season of 106 tackles (59 solo). The 29-year-old will look to keep up his momentum against a revamped Giants O-line in Week 2.

Wilson agreed to a two-year contract with the Panthers on Thursday, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports.
EDGE Analysis
Wilson set a career high with 106 tackles (59 solo), three sacks, one interception and one forced fumble in 17 games for Jacksonville in 2021, and he was able to secure a multi-year deal in free agency. The 28-year-old should be a solid IDP option for Carolina in 2022 coming off last year's production.

Wilson had five tackles (two solo), a sack, an interception and a forced fumble during Sunday's 26-11 win over the Colts.
EDGE Analysis
It was an eventful performance for Wilson, who played a prime role in helping stifle star tailback Jonathan Taylor in the unlikely victory. The 28-year-old joined Jacksonville on a one-year, $2 million deal in April 2021, and he'll return to free agency this offseason after posting career highs across the board with 106 tackles (59 solo), three sacks, five passes defensed, one interception and one forced fumble.
