Russell Wilson's recent real estate transactions raise further questions about his future with the Broncos.
Russell Wilson's tenure with the Denver Broncos hasn't gone as planned. Wilson went through a lot of ups and downs in Denver, and the Broncos significantly underperformed based on expectations following his trade with the Seattle Seahawks.
Amid speculation surrounding Wilson's future, the quarterback recently began accepting offers through Businessden's Thomas Ganley for the mansion he and his wife, Ciara, own in Cherry Hill Village. The couple has also started offering tours for potential buyers. Wilson and Ciara paid $25 million for the 20,000-square-foot mansion shortly after Wilson was traded to the Broncos.
Wilson's real estate move hints at possible departure from Broncos
Wilson came to Denver with high expectations, but the Broncos benched him through the 2023-2024 NFL season. This decision has led many analysts to wonder if Russell Wilson's era in Denver is nearing its end.
Rumors abounded that part of the reason Wilson was benched was to protect the team from injury. If Wilson had been injured, the team wouldn't have been able to take him off the roster. The quarterback's $37 million annual salary for the 2025-2026 season is guaranteed if he is still on the roster as of March 17th.
Denver fans are unhappy with Wilson, with many blaming him for the team's shortcomings. Regardless of how Wilson is evaluated, the quarterback has struggled to improve his team and get it to where it needs to be. Wilson needed to be better than he was before, and the results speak for themselves.
Wilson and Ciara considering a sale could mean the QB believes his days in Denver are over. That's probably the best scenario for both parties. Wilson will have the chance to find a new team and get a fresh start as he looks to end his career on a higher note. By rebuilding around a new core, the Broncos will gain much-needed financial flexibility.
