Nah. Wolf's are stockier
They're named wolf spiders because they physically hunt and chase down their food. Like a tarantula their size/strength is how they get food, so their builds are similar. It also makes them almost impossible to catch with a glass like this, fuckers can move.
It looks to me like it could be a brown recluse, but if OP doesn't live where they do, it's likely just a random ass house spider that's no big deal.
