Denver paid Russell Wilson $84m to go away. Now he could be heading for a title

The quarterback was on the scrapheap after a humiliating time with the Broncos. But he has been revived under Mike Tomlin in Pittsburgh

A Russell Wilson payback to Sean Peyton classic NFL fuckery.

Justin Fields also contributes to their wins, not all Russ.

And he only wants that 84k not the 84 million

Then I just get cut, no pay. Must be irreplaceable to start with. Most of us are not.

I wasn't aware of the 84 mln buyout, it's a crazy amount. The fact it just wasn't working, is probably as much on Russ as the Broncos. Could he just hate the city and quietly made a business decision to never play 'too hard', which inevitably led to getting released?

Right? Not much to ask.

Makes sense.

Whatever happened, I think both parties benefit from that decision.

Never know there’s like six teams that could get there

Makes you wonder if Wilson was just not motivated to play well in Denver after receiving the huge contract or if it was just not the right organizational fit there.

Seems to have picked up his game in PIT. Due to the system/coach or motivated after being dumped from DEN?

Wilson did not do bad in Denver look at his stats

They weren't "bad" but they were two of his lowest performing seasons in his career (so far) and the wins weren't happening. 4-11 in 2022 and 7-8 in 2023.

Worth every penny to get rid of him. He was cancer to the team.
