Russell Wilson is one of the most celebrated names in the National football league. For everything that he is today, all the credits go to his brother, Harry-Harrison IV, and his father, Harrison III.

In the most stunning move for a wild 2022 offseason, Wilson got traded to the Denver Broncos in a blockbuster deal. This deal made him one of the most expensive QBs in the NFL world. But let’s not forget the pioneer pillars of Wilson’s success in the pro football league.

Wilson’s older brother inspired him to take the game seriously

Harry Harrison IV is the third and oldest sibling in the Wilson family. He played at the University of Richmond and worked for a Chicago medical device manufacturer. He is the real reason why Russell Wilson became a quarterback. Because he would often ask his younger brother to throw passes at him. Harrison IV was a great wide receiver who followed in his father’s footsteps. Wilson’s father was an avid football player who also fancied baseball in his career.

His father, Harrison III, played two sports at Dartmouth College and received a law degree from the University of Virginia. The legacy was soon inherited by his sons, and Russell’s brother took the game very seriously. Growing up, the nine-time Pro Bowl champion learned the nuances of football from his brother and started playing for North Carolina State University and Wisconsin in 2011.

Russell Wilson trade: An expensive one

To draft the Superbowl-winning quarterback, Broncos had to go through weeks of negotiations with the Seattle Seahawks. The trade that was considered one of the biggest in NFL history saw the exchange of expensive players and picks on both sides. The Broncos traded their quarterback Drew Lock, tight end Noah Fant, defensive lineman Shelby Harris and several other picks from the queue.

Wilson had initially signed a no-trade provision that vested his powers to overrule the contract. However, it never resorted to doing so and seemed excited to begin a new chapter with the Broncos. And this had caught the attention of many fans and celebrities like Sharpe. Which imbibed a sense of hope that Wilson wants something new in this team. And who knows one day, he might repeat history by winning a Superbowl title for the side and reaping the right benefits to their investment.
