If Russell Wilson gets cut i guarantee his ass goes right to Pitt or Cle.

Arizona: $103.3m
Denver: $124m
Cincinnati: $146.5m

Those are the real guaranteed numbers that were guaranteed the second they signed the contracts and are guaranteed no matter what. It's why Denver has the whole Wilson situation going on now, injury guarantees is not a real guarantee because he won't be seeing that money despite them moving on from him next offseason.

It's why Watson's fully guaranteed was so insane. It was more than double the 2nd highest amount that was guaranteed at signing at the time (Rodgers at $101.5m with the Packers).

Personally I don't think I would ever touch Wilson now if I were an NFL team. Two teams in a row now where he doesn't connect with teammates and exits real messily with a giant concentrated PR campaign...

...just doesn't seem worth it to poison your lockerroom with "Team 3" and Wilson's nonsense.

Agree

And not only that he'll be pushing 36 next year and he's been regressing, basically speaking, three years in a row now stats/effectiveness wise. IF he gets a new contract next year I'd venture to say it will be as a backup with a tiny sliver of hope he can achieve past glory.
