Russell Wilson’s new contract averages $49 million but shouldn’t limit the Broncos from doing other business
Paton will be able to re-sign outside linebacker Bradley Chubb if he chooses.
“I had an amazing first decade of my career and the next decade, I’m really excited about it,” Wilson said. “To me, it’s really about being able to win championships and have enough space under the salary cap so George can make his magic and we can get guys like Randy Gregory or other great players. We want to make this a destination location.”
The Broncos hope Wilson is just as successful as the last two Super Bowl champs — Tom Brady was in his first season with Tampa Bay in 2020 and Matthew Stafford for the Rams last year. Rodgers is 39 and has won the last two NFL MVP awards. Stafford is 34 and has a $160 million contract. Matt Ryan was acquired by Indianapolis entering his age-37 season. And, of course, there is Brady, who could re-enter free agency next March for his, gulp, age-46 season.
