[Coughlin] not only had to make changes on the run [against Philadelphia], but he had to prepare to play a powerful football team in the Chiefs the next week. That's just not easy to do.

There were other safeties up there, but [Wilson] was the fastest... And because of that, our big question with him is, Can he track the ball? We can see him as a weak or strong safety. We were not looking for an 'in the box, play close to the line of scrimmage, run-defend only' safety. That's not what we were looking for. We were looking for someone that can do that but who also had the ability to play free safety and play centerfield. And because of his speed, we picked him. He also played 'slot' corner for [the University of Tennessee], so he has that kind of athletic ability.
