When reports surfaced that the Denver Broncos were in the mix to potentially trade for Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers, some fans and pundits questioned why in the world Rodgers would want to move to a division that already included Patrick Mahomes and Justin Herbert (not to mention Derek Carr, who’s better than he gets credit for).
That question proved to be a moot point because Rodgers ended up staying in Green Bay, but the same question could be applied to Russell Wilson, who specifically waived his no-trade clause in order to join the Broncos in the AFC West.
So why would Wilson want to join such a competitive division? Anyone who asks that question clearly isn’t familiar with the QB’s ambitions.
