The BC Lions Football Club announced today the signing of international wide receiver Marquess Wilson. A seventh-round selection of the Chicago Bears in 2013, Wilson appeared in 31 regular season games over four seasons with the team, recording 56 receptions for 777 yards and three touchdowns.

Wilson played college football for the Washington State Cougars where his 3,207 career receiving yards remain the second-highest in school history. The California native was a second-team All-PAC 12 selection in his sophomore season of 2011.
