Russell Wilson Still Looms Over Broncos vs. Patriots AFC Championship
Denver Broncos fans have spent two years hearing about the Russell Wilson contract fallout. Now it’s gone viral again, with Denver hosting the New England Patriots in the AFC Championship game while still carrying a massive Wilson-related cap charge on the books.
A social graphic making the rounds this week put it bluntly: “The Broncos are currently paying Russell Wilson more money than their entire offensive skill unit … combined.” The number attached to that claim is $32 million, the final season of the Broncos’ dead-money hit stemming from Wilson’s release. The comparison puts that $32M above the totals of Jarrett Stidham, Bo Nix, RJ Harvey, Courtland Sutton, Troy Franklin, Pat Bryant and Evan Engram.

Russell Wilson won a lot of games as the starting quarterback for the Seattle Seahawks. He didn't win many games as the starting quarterback for the Denver Broncos. Not long after the teams parted ways with Wilson in different ways, the Seahawks and Broncos are the respective NFC and AFC No. 1 seeds in the 2025-2026 NFL playoffs.
That's not a coincidence. Seattle and Denver both freed themselves of Wilson at the right times and they have reaped the benefits big time since his departure.
Almost four years ago in March 2022, the Seahawks made a blockbuster trade with the Broncos, getting multiple first-rounders and more draft picks in return for Wilson. Two years later, the Broncos released Wilson after benching him at the end of two disappointing seasons.
