Overview
- Logan Wilson was healthy and active on Christmas Day yet logged zero snaps against Washington, with the defense on the field for 44 plays.
- Stephen Jones described the situation as “confusion” in the planned linebacker rotation and said it was never intended for Wilson to sit.
- Head coach Brian Schottenheimer admitted the staff “messed up” the second‑half rotation after only 21 first‑half defensive snaps and took responsibility for the mistake.
- Jerry Jones said he had no explanation, reiterated Wilson was supposed to play, and praised the linebacker’s instincts as a reason Dallas acquired him.
- Since arriving in a trade from the Bengals for a 2026 seventh‑round pick, Wilson has 17 tackles in six games, and his usage plus the defensive coaches’ decisions face increased examination heading into Week 18 at the Giants and the offseason.
