Russell Wilson Rumored to Leave Broncos for Raiders
Anonymous NFL executive suggests the Raiders, one of Wilson's original preferred teams, could be his next destination.
- Russell Wilson, starting quarterback for the Denver Broncos, has had a disappointing two years with the team, leading to rumors of his departure.
- An anonymous NFL executive has suggested that Wilson could move to the Las Vegas Raiders, one of the teams he originally expressed interest in.
- The Raiders benched their previous quarterback, Jimmy Garoppolo, last season, replacing him with rookie Aidan O'Connell who posted a 5-5 record.
- The Broncos benched Wilson for the final two weeks of the 2023 season, possibly to avoid activating an injury guarantee which would have resulted in a significant payout.
- The Raiders' new head coach, Antonio Pierce, will likely have the final say on whether Wilson is brought on board.
