Russell Wilson, 10-time Pro Bowler and Super Bowl champ, reportedly finalizing deal to become CBS Sports analyst

Longtime NFL quarterback Russell Wilson, who will turn 38 in November, is finalizing a deal to become a CBS Sports analyst, ESPN’s Adam Schefter reported Monday.

The news arrives ahead of what could have been Wilson’s 15th season in the league. He spent the first 10 of those in Seattle, winning Super Bowl XLVIII with the Seahawks during the 2013 season and falling just short of back-to-back championships the following year. In 2022, he was traded to the Denver Broncos and given a gaudy extension that ultimately resulted in a record $85 million worth of dead money when the veteran signal-caller was released in 2024.

He took on the role of Pittsburgh Steelers QB1 for most of the 2024 campaign. Last season, he initially got the nod as the New York Giants’ starting QB, but he was benched for a rookie Jaxson Dart in the wake of an 0-3 start.
