Why NC State QB Will Wilson has embraced his role as a package runner

He wears it on his right hand every day. It serves as a reminder for what his mindset is on the football field. The black silicon wristband has three words written in white lettering: “Go get it.” That’s exactly what NC State freshman quarterback Will Wilson thinks every time he takes the field. And this fall, that motto is taking a new meaning as he has become the Wolfpack’s go-to short-yardage quarterback with his 4.53 40-yard dash speed inside a  6-foot-1, 230-pound frame.  Wilson played two snaps in the Wolfpack’s 35-31 win over Virginia — his collegiate debut — this past weekend, including a critical fourth-down conversion from the NC State 28-yard line in the fourth quarter. He rushed for six yards on two carries, picking up a pair of first downs in the process.
