The Saints have placed Wilson (undisclosed) on IR, the New Orleans Times-Picayune reports.

EDGE Analysis

In his first season with the Saints, Wilson recorded 27 tackles and a pick in 15 games (including four starts) in 2015. While the 2010 first-rounder isn't much of an IPD factor, his injury does represent a hit to the Saints' depth at cornerback. Replacing Wilson on the team's active roster will be defensive tackle C.J. Wilson, who signed with New Orleans on Friday.

Wilson's chances of making the Saints' final roster appear slim, according to the New Orleans Times-Picayune.

EDGE Analysis

After signing with New Orleans this offseason, Wilson looked like the frontrunner to claim the Saints' nickel cornerback slot, however, CFL standout Delvin Breaux quickly took training camp by storm and won the No. nickel back role. Additionally, 2015 fifth-round draft pick Damian Swann has been working as the No. 2 option at nickel. Injuries to the secondary could still open up an opportunity for Wilson to hang on, but even if he makes the final squad, he's unlikely to be much of a contributor in IDP leagues.

The Saints have signed Wilson to a one-year contract, the New Orleans Times-Picayune reports. Wilson, who notched 26 tackles and a sack for the Jets last season, now looks like the front-runner to claim the Saints' nickel cornerback slot.

Kyle Wilson is expected to remain the Jets' nickel corner this season. Wilson has been mentioned as a possible release candidate, but he enters training camp as the favorite to return in his slot role. The Newark Star-Ledger projects Dimitri Patterson to start opposite Dee Milliner, with rookie Dexter McDougle, Darrin Walls, and Ras-I Dowling competing for roles in sub packages. 27-year-old Wilson is entering a make-or-break year in 2014.

ESPNNewYork's Rich Cimini does not believe Jets former first-round CB Kyle Wilson will be re-signed when his contract runs out next March. That is if he even makes it that long. Wilson's role as the starting slot corner will be contested by newly-signed CB Dimitri Patterson, and there have even been rumblings his roster spot could be in danger. This is a make-or-break season for Wilson.

Jets CB Kyle Wilson may be in danger of losing his slot corner job. Dmitri Patterson will be a Week 1 starter, but his best position is the slot. Beat writer Rich Cimini suggests Wilson could be demoted and replaced by Patterson inside if one of the Jets' current reserve outside corners (Darrin Walls, Ras-I Dowling, Dexter McDougle) earns a place in New York's nickel package. A 2010 first-round disappointment, Wilson is in his contract year.

ESPN New York suggests Jets CB Kyle Wilson's roster spot could be in jeopardy. Wilson, the No. 29 overall pick in the 2010 draft, has one year left on his rookie deal and has shown that he's really a slot corner only. The Jets recently signed CB Dimitri Patterson, another slot corner, to a one-year, $3 million deal. "Wilson makes no plays," said an AFC scout. He has just three career interceptions. The Jets will be eyeing cornerback help in next month's draft.

Jets CB Kyle Wilson (concussion) practiced fully Friday and will play in Week 7 against New England. With Wilson ready and Dee Milliner (hamstring) back, the Jets' secondary will be at full strength for Sunday's matchup with Tom Brady's Patriots.

Jets CB Kyle Wilson (concussion) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Patriots. Wilson sustained the injury during last week's loss to the Steelers. He was replaced by Isaiah Trufant, but the Jets could shake things up this week with Dee Milliner (hamstring) expected to return Week 7.

Jets CB Kyle Wilson is done for the day in Week 6 with a head injury. He's likely being checked for a concussion. Wilson has been covering the slot for the Jets, who could really use the return of injured rookie Dee Milliner.
