[4] Vildor was named first-team All-Sun Belt for a second straight season and a Pro Football Focus All-American as a senior after recording 27 tackles, two interceptions and six passes broken up.

In the Bears' Week 15 game against the Jacksonville Jaguars, Vildor made his first NFL start at corner back.

Vildor entered the 2022 season as a starting cornerback alongside Jaylon Johnson and Kyler Gordon.
