The Eagles have one of the deepest WR rooms in the NFL and one player stands above the rest. Literally.

Rookie Johnny Wilson, the 185th pick in the 2024 NFL Draft, joins Philadelphia after spending the final two seasons of his college career at Florida State. With the Seminoles, Wilson used his height to make plays, grabbing 84 catches for 1,514 yards and seven touchdowns over two seasons.

As Wilson towers over his opponents — and many of his teammates — his height was often a topic of discussion during FSU games. Now that he has moved on to the NFL, his height will jump off the screen during Eagles games.

How tall is Wilson? And where does that place him among NFL players? Here is everything to know about the Eagles rookie's measurements.
