Dallas Cowboys to bring in Terry Wilson for rookie minicamp
Former Kentucky quarterback Terry Wilson, who finished his college career at New Mexico after entering the transfer portal in 2021, has received an invite to the Dallas Cowboys’ rookie minicamp on a tryout basis, according to ESPN’s Todd Archer. The former three-star recruit previously played for Garden City Community College and made an appearance on Netflix’s Last Chance U.
Terry Wilson went undrafted this year, but now gets his opportunity to showcase his skills in front of NFL coaches while working with and against some of the Cowboys’ top young players. In past years, several players around the NFL have made a name for themselves at similar events before kickstarting their career.
Over three seasons at Kentucky, Wilson played in 25 games after dealing with injuries which former wide receiver Lynn Bowden to fill in. He threw for 3,436 yards with 20 touchdowns and 12 interceptions, adding 1,015 rushing yards and 10 touchdowns as well as 26 receiving yards. In his one season at New Mexico State he added 1,058 passing yards with seven touchdowns and four interceptions.
In addition, the report states that former Arkansas and Texas A&M quarterback Nick Starkel, who finished his career at San Jose State, has received an invite to the same event.

Terry Wilson remembers Kentucky fondly
Despite leaving in the transfer portal to make room for current starting quarterback Will Levis, Terry Wilson remembers Kentucky fondly and continues to show support for a school legend. He honored deceased quarterback and school legend Jared Lorenzen with a custom pair of cleats during the first day of his NFL Draft prep in January.
Lorenzen, a native of Covington, Kentucky, passed away on July 3, 2019. The loss left a hole in the Bluegrass State’s soul — the Kentucky football family lost an absolute legend and arguably the biggest fan-favorite in program history.
Despite leaving Kentucky for his final year of collegiate eligibility to play at New Mexico, Wilson keeps a piece of Lexington in his heart at all times for several reasons — his daughter was born there, after all.
