Russell Wilson gave the Seattle Seahawks an April 15th deadline a few months back to make a deal happen and technically April 16th got it done, but it’s done. Wilson gets four years at $140 million with a $65 million signing bonus. He is one of the best at the position so you can’t be mad at the market and get your money my brotha.
For the #Seahawks and QB Russell Wilson, it’s a 4-year extension worth $140M, source said. He beats Aaron Rogers as the highest-paid player in the NFL.

Also, announcing the deal from bed with @ciara is a hell of a flex. pic.twitter.com/3pxgTuFF1q

Wilson flexed with his lady (Ciara) after the deal was done. How can you be mad at that?
