Russell Wilson will be released from the Denver Broncos on March 13, the team said in a statement. The star quarterback played two years for the team.
The Denver Broncos will release Russell Wilson once free agency officially opens this month, the team said in a statement Monday.
“We spoke with Russell Wilson today to inform of his release after the start of the league year,” general manager George Paton and head coach Sean Payton said in joint statement. “On behalf of the Broncos, we thank Russell for his contributions and dedication to our team and community while wishing him the best as he continues his career.”
“As we move forward, we are focused on building the strongest team possible for the 2024 season and beyond. We are excited to improve this offseason and will have the flexibility to get better through the draft and free agency.”
The Broncos said Wilson will officially be cut once the new league year begins on March 13.
Wilson thanked Broncos fans and his teammates for their support in a separate statement.
“Over these last two years, you have welcomed my family and me with open arms and have embraced us as members of the Denver community,” he said.
