Denver Broncos quarterback Russell Wilson steps up to the line during the second half at GEHA Field at Arrowhead on Oct. 12, 2023 in Kansas City, Missouri. “I feel great, the ball’s spinning well, I feel like I’m seeing it well for the most part and then also moving well,” Wilson told reporters Wednesday. “I’ve got all the confidence in the world.”
The driving force behind it isn’t so much about Wilson’s current-year production, which has ticked up from 2022. It’s about two factors that matter just as much in the NFL: Money and risk. “One hundred percent. That’s the date that forces a decision to happen,” Pro Football Focus and Over the Cap analyst Brad Spielberger told The Post. “… Long answer short, that date is a trigger date.”
Coincidentally, it was Jarrett Stidham, now Wilson’s backup, who started those two games for the Raiders. “That’s more common,” Spielberger said. “Different situation, but in Patrick Mahomes’ re-worked deal they moved back some of the dates of when roster bonuses get paid out and when they become guaranteed. It’s obviously a different situation but you’re still just trying to buy more flexibility and give yourself more time on things.”Broncos WR Jerry Jeudy airs frustration on 1-5 start, lack of production, Steve Smith dust-up: “Go watch the film and see what it is.
There are dozens of variables, several voices and all kinds of unknowns at play, but really only three realities exist for the second half of the season if Denver has any doubt whatsoever about Wilson’s future here: His contract gets adjusted, he doesn’t play or the Broncos roll the dice on a $37 million risk.
