From one Seahawks Super Bowl quarterback to another
The Giants signed Russell Wilson last offseason to give them a proven veteran, and a Super Bowl winner, in their quarterback room. Even with Jameis Winston already under contract and a plan in place to draft a quarterback (which turned out to be Jaxson Dart ), Wilson was brought in to be the starter.
The veteran quarterback is not thinking about retirement after his one season with the Giants
Former Seattle Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson appears to be paying close attention to his old team during their NFL playoff run. It is safe to say things ended in a messy divorce between Wilson and the Seahawks before the quarterback was traded to the Denver Broncos.
The Denver Broncos were one of the worst teams in the league over the last few years, but this year they bounced back with a trip to the AFC Championship.
The Broncos were the only NFL team to place three players among the league’s top 15 in dropped passes during the regular season, per Pro-Football-Reference.com — wide receiver Courtland Sutton (eight), tight end Evan Engram (eight) and running back RJ Harvey (seven). No wonder a 15-4 record feels like such a Boverachievement, in retrospect.
Denver has re-emerged as a threat to come out of the AFC, all while paying a quarterback millions to play elsewhere.
Russell Wilson puts family first. He is deeply involved in raising his four children with Ciara and focuses on being present and leading by example. Fatherhood, more than football, shapes who Wilson is off the field.
