Wilson Retires, Joins CBS as Analyst

Russell Wilson has officially announced his retirement from the NFL and confirmed he will join CBS Sports as an NFL analyst.

The former quarterback made the announcement in a social media video posted on Wednesday. Wilson, a third-round pick in 2012, won the starting job as a rookie with the Seahawks and made it to the Pro Bowl nine times in 10 seasons with the team.

After being traded to the Broncos in 2022, Wilson had two seasons in Denver, one in Pittsburgh, and one with the Giants. While the Jets had interest in adding him as a backup, Wilson ultimately chose television over continuing his playing career. grenadier.co.za
