It is a known fact that Russell Wilson’s debut as the Denver Broncos starting quarterback this season has not gone as planned. The Broncos currently sit at 3-8, and fans and pundits have pointed to Wilson and head coach Nathaniel Hackett as the scapegoats.
The intent of the Broncos’ trade for Wilson this past spring was to be a landmark deal for the Broncos, in which the team settled on its first franchise quarterback since Peyton Manning. Due to his five-year, $245 million contract, naturally, Wilson decided on a $25 million home in Cherry Hills Village after joining the team.
