Russell Wilson Rumors: NFL Insiders Expect Broncos to Cut QB by Next Week

The clock is ticking on Russell Wilson's time as a member of the Denver Broncos, with a resolution expected to come very soon.

Per The Athletic's Dianna Russini, people around the NFL believe the Broncos are preparing to release Wilson by next week.

This matches up with comments head coach Sean Payton made on Tuesday at the NFL scouting combine in Indianapolis. He said they anticipate a decision will come "within the next two weeks."

The absolute latest the Broncos can wait to release Wilson is March 17. That's the date his $37 million injury guarantee for the 2025 season becomes fully guaranteed.
