The well-chronicled Russell Wilson-Denver Broncos divorce ended this past spring following underwhelming on-field results. Although he showed improvement in his second season compared to his first season (66.4% completion rate, 26 passing touchdowns, and eight interceptions compared to 60.5% completion rate, 16 touchdowns, and 11 interceptions in 2022), the Broncos still elected to move on, with Wilson’s 11-19 record hard to debate against.
