Professional career

He played in three regular season games and one post-season game in his rookie year. In 2012, Wilson played as both a left tackle and left guard while starting in 10 games due to several injuries at the offensive line positions. Wilson played in 12 regular season games and one post-season game in 2013 after the Stampeders again faced injury difficulties on the offensive line. In 2014, Wilson started in 16 regular season games while playing in all 18 at the right guard position. He also started in two post-season games, including the Grey Cup, where the Stampeders defeated the Hamilton Tiger-Cats 20-16.
