It is the same standard for every single player. We don't need to start determining "basically" on a case-by-case basis because then we need to do it case-by-case for like 2,500 players and another 300+ every year each draft to determine their basically status.
OR we can just have a single standard that applies to everyone.
He will be 28 years and 9 months for Week 1. He turns 29 in the calandar year 2024. 2024 is his age 29 season. This only ever comes up as disputed when someone wants a Bengal (or potential Bengal in this case) to be considered basically a year younger than everyone else in the league operating under the same standard.
And some use "29-Year" as a way to make them seem to have more wear and tear. For instance you compared him to Hubbard and Hill; both of whom were drafted a year earlier than CW.
Me personally I consider players entering their () years in the NFL. maybe i'm just weird that way. I consider 2024 to be Wilkins' 5th year and Bj/Sam's 6th year
