This season will certainly go down as one of the greatest years of Russell Wilson’s NFL career. Not only did he make the transition from the Seahawks locker room, but also secured his future ahead of the 2022 season. The Denver Broncos quarterback, Russell Wilson, recently signed a mammoth $245 million contract making him one of the highest-paid signal-callers in the league. As soon as the news went public, his wife Ciara Wilson came forward to appreciate her husband’s fortune.

This offseason, Russell Wilson shocked Seattle fans with an unexpected trade to the Denver Broncos. After spending a significant amount of time for about ten seasons, Wilson shifted his base to Denver.

The franchise had to pay a hefty price to bring him in. And guess what? They are not done yet. On Thursday, the team’s management made it official that Wilson has agreed to sign a five-year $245 million contract with $165 million guaranteed. This deal makes him one of the highest-paid passers in the league, with huge guaranteed money.

He is just behind Cleveland’s QB Deshaun Watson($230 million guaranteed) and Cardinals’ Kyler Murray ($189.5 million). Reacting to this announcement, Ciara called her hubby an inspiration and called him a Bronco!

“Baby @DangeRussWilson, I am so proud of you! You’re the most dedicated and hardworking person I know! It’s been so beautiful to see you become a Bronco! So excited for the journey ahead! You’re 1 of 1! My greatest inspiration. I love you so much! @Brocos #LetsRide,” she wrote on Twitter.

Indeed this is an unbelievable moment for many NFL fans. This deal came out of the blue. Even before stepping his foot for a single regular season game, Wilson has already secured his position inside the locker room.

After he made his way into the Broncos this offseason, there have been dramatic changes in the overall performance of the franchise. Even the head coach Nathaniel Hackett was impressed by his work ethic. “He is truly a 24/7 kind of guy. He wants to be great. He wants to know everything. No small thing is less important than another thing,” Hackett said in an interview.

Moreover, he affirmed that his focus while studying and strategizing gameplay is phenomenal. Having a veteran like Peyton Manning by his side to guide him through, makes the job lot easier. It’s yet to be seen how much the team benefits from the services of this Wisconsin product.
