How do the deal him? What team would take him?
Its an $85M hit in 2024 and 2025 if they cut him outright.

Its like a bad penny you can never get rid of.

This guy has been a disaster ever since he married the new girl.

Beat me to it

Who would take him

 

[carolinakid]

time to retire and go in the booth

 

[DiggityDaggityDo]

It’s been all downhill ever since he got arrested.

Money is more important than going to the playoffs.

Nobody wants him

Russell Wilson is expecting to be cut by the Denver Broncos in March, per league sources. For almost two months, the quarterback has been starting knowing the organization was most likely going to move on him from after this season.

So he'll be a backup somewhere right?
I mean, will any team be willing to sign him as a starter? CAR, NYG, NE, PIT, ????

Falcons Commaders Titans and Browns would all be much better with Wilson

 

[jjgold]

I don’t think they wanna pay them. I don’t know how this salary works.

good question Tanko. I mean WIlson has not played well overall for 2 seasons. Better this year than last but you wonder if he got paid and lost some motivation. Who Knows? But he is not the same QB that led SEA to 2 SB's

There are basically 2 upcoming choices for the Broncos regarding Wilson:
1) Pay him $39M to go away and not play.
2) Pay him $76M for the next 2 seasons.

It comes down to whether 2 seasons of Wilson is worth more than the $37M difference. If another team thinks 2 seasons of Wilson is worth more than $37M and worth more than the Broncos are willing to pay Wilson they could trade for him. The trading team would pick up what they're prepared to pay, the Broncos would pay the rest, and there would likely be a swap of future 7th round picks.

Personally i'd pass on acquiring Wilson for 2 years at $37M+.

I know the league is starved for QBs to an extent but it's tough to see him being all that effective anywhere. So yeah not sure where he lands if they cut him

 

[jjgold]

He lost motivation. He doesn’t care anymore. He’s more worried about making TikTok videos. He is not a Hall of Fame football player.
