49ers' Tavon Wilson: Won't return this season
Wilson (foot) won't play again this season after his 21-day window for reinstatement from injured reserve closed Wednesday, Aaron Wilson of ProFootballNetwork.com reports.
Wilson was designated to return from IR in early January but didn't demonstrate enough progress to earn a spot on the 49ers' postseason roster. He totaled 10 tackles in eight games this season and is set to be a free agent in 2022.

49ers' Tavon Wilson: Shifts to injured reserve
Wilson (foot) was placed on injured reserve Monday.
Wilson was already ruled out for Monday against the Rams and is expected to miss multiple games, so the move to injured reserve isn't surprising. The 31-year-old played an every-down role and recorded seven tackles for the 49ers last week, but prior to that, he primarily played special teams this season.

49ers' Tavon Wilson: Will miss some time
Wilson (foot) will miss some time and likely land on injured reserve, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.
Wilson was mainly a contributor on special teams, but he had moved up the depth chart with all the injuries in the 49ers' secondary. The 31-year-old veteran will hope to avoid IR and try to return quickly.

49ers' Tavon Wilson: Lands in San Fran
The 49ers are signing Wilson to a one-year contract, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Wilson split the first eight years of his career evenly between the Patriots and Lions before spending time with the Colts in 2020. The veteran now stands to bolster the 49ers' secondary depth, a role which will make him unlikely to pop up on the IDP radar unless starters in front of him go down.

Colts' Tavon Wilson: Starting Week 13
Wilson will start at strong safety Sunday at Houston, Joel A. Erickson of The Indianapolis Star reports.
The veteran safety has played a minor defensive role this season but will start this weekend with Khari Willis (back/quadriceps) ruled out. Wilson had 98 total tackles and one sack while starting 13 of 16 games for the Lions in 2019.

Colts' Tavon Wilson: Joins Indy
Wilson signed with the Colts on Tuesday.
Wilson bounced in and out of the starting lineup in Detroit over the past four seasons, with his stint highlighted by last year's career-high 98 tackles. The 30-year-old could serve as the No. 3 safety in Indianapolis, where Malik Hooker and Khari Willis are expected to be the starters. The team also has rookie third-round pick Julian Blackmon, but he's still rehabbing from an ACL tear he suffered in December.

Lions' Tavon Wilson: Approaches triple-digit tackle numbers
Wilson generated 98 tackles, one sack, five pass breakups and two fumble recoveries over 16 games in 2019.
After seeing his role diminish during the 2018 campaign, Wilson logged a career high in defensive snaps this time around, presumably thanks to the offseason departure of Glover Quin followed by the midseason trade of Quan Diggs to Seattle. Wilson, who turns 30 in March, parlayed this heavy usage into a new career high in tackles and more than twice as many PBUs as he's had in any of the past six seasons. Whether this statistical growth can reasonably be expected to continue in 2020 largely depends on if Detroit extends another contract to the soon-to-be unrestricted free agent, and whether 2019 third-rounder Will Harris -- or any other younger bodies the Lions may bring in -- eat into Wilson's playing time.

Lions' Tavon Wilson: Good to go Sunday
Wilson (hamstring) is officially active for Sunday's matchup with the Packers.
Wilson was listed as questionable despite finishing the week with a full practice Friday, so it's not a major surprise he's suiting up for the finale. The 29-year-old should work in his usual every-down role at strong safety for Detroit.

Lions' Tavon Wilson: Questionable for Sunday
Wilson (hamstring) is officially listed as questionable for Sunday's game against Green Bay, Tim Twentyman of the Lions' official site reports.
Wilson was upgraded to a full participant for Friday's practice, signalling that he has a good chance to suit up in the finale. If Wilson should be ruled out, however, look for Will Harris to draw the start at the strong safety position for Week 17.
