The Russell Wilson era in Denver has been nothing but an abject failure, as the Broncos gave up a ton of draft capital for the veteran quarterback yet have missed the postseason in back-to-back years.
Wilson was benched at the end of the 2023 season, a way for Denver to make sure he stays healthy and does not trigger a guarantee in his contract if he was unable to pass a physical in March.
A former Super Bowl champion, Wilson still is under contract through the 2028 season, but Denver could cut its losses with him this offseason, taking on $85 million in dead cap.
