On December 18, 2004, Wilson was signed by the Cincinnati Bengals. In 2005, Wilson had 97 yards on 20 attempts during all four preseason games but was waived again and re-signed to the practice squad. Wilson was then signed to the offseason roster in January 2006. In 2006, Wilson tied for the league lead in preseason rushing yards with 217. Wilson was active for the first two regular season games, and finally made his NFL debut in the third game. Wilson was waived and re-signed to the practice squad. Wilson spent almost the rest of the year on the practice squad, finally being re-signed to the active roster for the season finale against the Pittsburgh Steelers, but was inactive. Wilson registered his first ever offensive regular season stat in week four against the New England Patriots, when on a first down he rushed for -3 yards, but then on a 2nd down he rushed for 5 yards. His totals for the year were 2 rushes for 2 yards. Wilson also played on special teams in weeks 3 through 5.

In the 2006 offseason, Wilson held a youth football camp in Weirton, West Virginia on May 19, 2007 run and coordinated by his family Kyle Wilson, Chlyla Wilson and Sabastion Boner. Some athletes participating in the camp included former Mountaineers Kay-Jay Harris, Chris Henry, Rasheed Marshall, Adam "Pacman" Jones, Wilson's father Otis Wilson, T. J. Duckett, Jarrett Payton, and Ike Taylor. On June 18, 2007, Wilson was involved in a wedding altercation in Huntington, West Virginia that led to his (and 14 others') arrests. Police reports said that Wilson and his group refused to disperse around 3 a.m. outside of a bar, which led to Wilson being charged with disorderly conduct. Along with being an honorary team captain for the 2007 Mississippi State ballgame for West Virginia University, Wilson was also in attendance for numerous other games at his alma mater, including the 2008 and 2011 Gold-Blue Spring Games.
