Russell Wilson is headed to Mile High. The Broncos are sending multiple first-round picks plus additional picks and players to the Seahawks in exchange for the Super Bowl-winning quarterback.
During Super Bowl week Mackenzie Salmon and Andy Nesbitt interviewed nearly 40 current and former NFL players and asked all of them some of the biggest questions facing the league this offseason.The Denver Broncos landed their long-sought franchise quarterback after all – just not the one many expected., the Broncos agreed to acquire nine-time Pro Bowl quarterback Russell Wilson from the Seattle Seahawks, NFL Network's Tom Pelissero and ESPN's Adam reported.
The Seahawks will receive multiple first-round picks plus additional picks and players, Pelissero reported. Quarterback Drew Lock, who started 21 games for the Broncos the last three years, is headed to Seattle in the deal, per Pelissero. The move comes just six days after Seahawks coach Pete Carroll said the team had no plans of trading Wilson.“That’s commonplace for us to have conversations with teams about all of the players, particularly marquee players, and that’s not changed,” Carroll said on Wednesday. “It’s been the same every year we’ve been here so it’s the same as it’s been. We have no intention of making any move there.
