After two seasons with the Broncos, Russell Wilson could find himself as the big fish on the free-agent market in the coming months.
Denver made the call earlier this week to bench Wilson for their final two games of the 2023 season, with the former Super Bowl champion now expected to be cut in March, per The Athletic’s Dianna Russini.
The Broncos’ decision to bench their starting QB is motivated by Wilson’s sizable contract and the potential ramifications if he was to get injured during ether of the team’s final two games this season.
