Wilson was once a major contributor to the Bulldogs' defense and helped the team immensely during the 2024 season. He finished with 13 tackles, three sacks, and a pair of forced fumbles.

His departure from the Bulldogs' roster was one of the more unexpected entries from Georgia ahead of the 2025 season and his presence was missed in 2025. Now, it appears that the highly talented defensive player has provided football fans with yet another surprise, as he has once again entered the portal.

Earlier in the month of December, it was reported that the University ofGeorgia was seeking $390K from former Bulldog Damon Wilsonfor breaking his contract. Wilson had reportedly signed a contract with the Bulldogs and then opted to transfer to Missouri.

Wilson responded by suing the University of Georgia. In a 42-page complaint filed on Tuesday morning in Missouri, Wilson's attorney makes the claim that Georgia is looking to penalize Wilson for transferring out of their program.

While the reasoning or future destination regarding Wilson' entrance into the portal remains unclear, the former Bulldog will likely make a massive impact on whichever team the player decides to join ahead of the 2026 season.

As the Bulldogs’ offseason continues, the Dawgs will look to retain as many players as possible, while simultaneously adding to its own roster by way of the portal. Stay tuned for more updates regarding Georgia’s offseason moves from Bulldogs on SI.
