Wilson though should not get much more than what Pratt got, if anything to be fair to Pratt.
2021 they played about the same number of snaps, and they put up about identical stats. Wilson was better in coverage though.
2022 Wilson played 231 more snaps than Pratt, but he only had 24 more tackles and less PDs and turnovers than Pratt.

Pratt signed for 3 years, $20.25 mill. $6.75 mill APY
If Wilson ends up getting closer to $9 mill or $10 mill APY, I'd be a little irritated if I'm Pratt. Although I guess you could argue he could/should have negotiated better.

Wilson is an every down LB and wears the dot on his helmet. Almost every game has some instances when Wilson is the only LB on the field for the Bengals defense. He's going to get more than Pratt unless the medical staff know something about the condition of his shoulder that hasn't been made public.
