The Falcons re-signed Wilkinson to a one-year contract Thursday, Terrin Waack of the team's official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Wilkinson looks set to reprise a familiar reserve role at guard for the 2025 season. He appeared in just two games with Atlanta in 2024, taking one total offensive snap and eight snaps on special teams. Back in 2023, he started nine of 10 appearances with the Cardinals.

Wilkinson re-signed with the Cardinals on a one-year contract Wednesday, Zach Gershman of the team's official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Wilkinson was Arizona's starter at left guard to begin the 2023 campaign, but he ultimately ended up sharing the role down the stretch after he returned from a neck injury. The 29-year-old will now work on earning back that role on a full-time basis in 2024.

Wilkinson (neck) was activated from injured reserve Saturday and is questionable for Sunday's game against the 49ers.
EDGE Analysis
Wilkinson has been out since Week 6 with the injury, though he'll now be eligible to return this season. Whether that occurs in Week 15 against the 49ers remains to be seen, though when he can return, he should retake the starting left guard job.

Wilkinson (neck) was designated to return from IR on Wednesday, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Wilkinson has missed the minimum of four weeks and will now have a 21-day window to practice with the team before he'll need to be added to the 53-man roster. However, the 28-year-old can return to play as soon as Sunday against the Steelers.

EDGE Analysis
Wilkinson was set to miss his second straight game of the season after sustaining a neck issue in practice leading up to Week 7. He'll be forced to sit out for the next four games and will be eligible to return against the Rams on Nov. 26. Dennis Daley -- who signed a two-year deal with Arizona in free agency -- is set to start at left guard in Wilkinson's absence.
