There will also be a live auction, featuring Wilson's signed game-worn NFL and college jerseys. You can also bid on an all-inclusive trip to Cincinnati, which includes a roundtrip airfare, drinks and appetizers at Wilson's home, two sideline pregame passes for a Bengals game, a guided tour of the Queen City and dinner at the world famous Montgomery Inn and Jeff Ruby's Steakhouse.

The silent auction will also include signed footballs and jerseys.

Wilson, who played at Wyoming from 2016-19, is entering his sixth NFL season, all with the Bengals. "The Governor," as he is affectionately known around these parts, is five tackles shy of 500 for his career. He has also picked off 11 passes and forced seven fumbles.

He helped lead Cincinnati to Super Bowl LVI back in 2022.

The Casper product was named the Mountain West Freshman of the Year in 2016, leading the Cowboys to a berth in the conference championship game. He tallied 94 tackles that fall, to go along with three sacks and the same number of interceptions, returning one for a touchdown.

Wilson racked up 421 tackles during his UW career, which ranks fourth all-time behind only Jim Talich (440), Andrew Wingard (454) and Galand Thaxton (467).

University of Wyoming’s Top 50 Football Players

During the summer of 2021, 7220Sports.com counted down the Top 50 football players in University of Wyoming history, presented by Premier Bone & Joint Centers, Worthy of Wyoming.

The rules are simple: What was the player's impact while in Laramie? That means NFL stats, draft status or any other accolade earned outside of UW is irrelevant when it comes to this list.

This isn't a one-man job. This task called for a panel of experts. Joining 7220's Cody Tucker are Robert Gagliardi, Jared Newland, Ryan Thorburn, and Kevin McKinney.

We all compiled our own list of 50 and let computer averages do the work. Think BCS -- only we hope this catalog is fairer.
