The ill-fated Russell Wilson era in Denver officially ended on Monday after the Broncos announced his release.
The trade that brought Wilson and a fourth-round pick to Denver in 2022 proved to be disastrous, costing the team two first-round picks, two second-round picks, a fifth-rounder and tight end Noah Fant, quarterback Drew Lock and defensive end Shelby Harris.
In return, the Broncos received 6,594 passing yards, 42 touchdowns, 19 interceptions, 100 sacks taken, a 63.3 completion percentage and an 11-19 record as the starter across two seasons.
The team will save $37 million by cutting him, though they'll also absorb the largest dead cap figure ($49.
