Stingley: Wilson's speed is toughest challenge

Houston Texans star cornerback Derek Stingley Jr. revealed that New York Jets wide receiver Garrett Wilson is the most challenging opponent he has encountered in the league. Stingley described Wilson's exceptional speed and remarkable leaping ability, recalling a specific high school camp encounter where Wilson made an improbable catch. This praise comes as Wilson recently secured a substantial four-year, $130 million contract extension.
