Off the field, some might suggest that he is a freak as well, but in a different way.

The Eagles rookie wide receiver is making major headlines for something that has nothing to do with football.

The 6-foot-7 wideout has gone viral after fans spotted him on the dating app Hinge.

For those unaware, the app describes itself as “displaying potential matches one at a time and allowing the user to dismiss or attempt to match by responding to a specific piece of information on their profile.”

NFL players using dating apps isn’t unheard of, so Johnny Wilson shouldn’t be embarrassed about this information being out there.

Over the years, several NFL and NBA players have been spotted on platforms like Tinder, Bumble, and Hinge.

Jason Kelce met his wife, Kylie, through a dating app.

Simone Biles said she was “hooked” on Chicago Bears safety Jonathan Owens just two weeks after they first connected on the invite-only dating app, Raya.

It certainly worked out for those two couples, so it appears that Johnny Wilson just wants to find the love of his life.

Not every athlete wants to sleep around.

As for his football career, Wilson is focused on proving himself in Philadelphia.

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Johnny Wilson’s first NFL touchdown was a memorable one.

While his numbers on the stat sheet aren’t eye-popping, he did have his moment during Philly’s dominant 34-6 win over the Dallas Cowboys. He scored his first career touchdown on a pass from Jalen Hurts in the third quarter.

In his rookie season with the Philadelphia Eagles, wide receiver Johnny Wilson had five receptions for a total of 38 yards and one touchdown.
