From the article

Cedric Wilson made his case for the WR5 job. During 7-on-7s, Wilson set up on the outside and ran a quick out, which drew in defender Khalill Dorsey. Wilson then turned his route up the field in a variation of a wheel route, and while Dorsey did a nice job of sticking with him, Teddy Bridgewater took advantage of Wilson's frame and placed a perfect ball on his outside shoulder. What initially looked like an overthrow ended up being a spectacular catch, as Wilson elevated and snagged the ball out of the air with one hand, landed in bounds, and scampered up the sidelines.
