It’s official: Russell Wilson joins Broncos in blockbuster trade

Quarterback Russell Wilson is officially a member of the Broncos.

Eight days after the Broncos and Seattle Seahawks agreed to a blockbuster trade that sent Wilson and a fourth-round pick to the Broncos in exchange for three players and five draft picks, the deal was announced Wednesday at 2 p.m., the start of the league year.

Quarterback Drew Lock, tight end Noah Fant and defensive end Shelby Harris were traded to Seattle along with 2022-23 first- and second-round picks and a fifth-round pick this year.

The Broncos and Seahawks started trade talks at the Senior Bowl in late January and finalized the deal on the night of March 7.
