Russell Wilson has two more seasons left on his current Seattle Seahawks contract. You would think that unless he abruptly retires, experiences a career-altering injury, or has the sharpest of declines in performance, Wilson is going to get a new deal and be Seattle’s franchise quarterback heading into the 2020s.
There’s pretty much no denying that Wilson is already the greatest quarterback in franchise history. He’s a Super Bowl champion (and he performed really well in that game, too!), four-time Pro Bowler, the NFL’s passer rating leader in 2015, and has firmly established himself as someone whose name is going to be in the league MVP conversation before the start of every season.
