Quarterback Russell Wilson of the Seattle Seahawks is facing an uncertain future as the 2021 NFL season comes to a close. Wilson, who already has $39 million guaranteed for the 2024 season, has an additional $37 million that would become guaranteed if he cannot pass a physical by early March.
Recent developments in the league have shed some light on Wilson's situation. It appears that the Denver Broncos' decision to sit him for their upcoming game ensures that the additional $37 million will not be triggered. This move by Denver comes at a critical time for Wilson, as he currently ranks seventh in the NFL as a passer, with 26 touchdown passes and eight interceptions.
