The Las Vegas Raiders have yet to really get to see what their first overall pick, Tyree Wilson, can do in a live NFL game, as he has been dealing with an injury.
On Saturday, we got a glimpse of what the future could look like, and man, it looks great. Tyree Wilson is going to be a freak. And we can infer that based on one exact play we saw.
Raiders' Wilson had a crazy play vs. Cowboys
The Raiders couldn't extend their preseason winning streak to seven straight games, as the Cowboys play about as well as the Raiders have been the two games prior. However, the game did show us something great, though.
One play in particular saw Wilson show off his grown-man strength. Wilson, standing up on the edge playing in a seven technique, bullrushed the tackle, lifted him up, and threw him to the ground. He did miss the sack as Cowboys quarterback Will Grier escaped the pocket, but the play was impressive nonetheless.
Now, had Wilson gotten the sack, it would have been one of the biggest highlights of Saturday's game. But he is still learning, and this was his first NFL action. Either way, we can see from this clip alone that Wilson is going to be a beast.
