Super Bowl XLVIII-winning quarterback Russell Wilson played at an elite level last season, posting arguably the best numbers of his NFL career. The eight-year veteran completed 66.1 percent of his passes for 4,110 yards and 31 touchdowns while rushing for 342 yards and three touchdowns on the ground.
