Rodgers Stays With Packers, Wilson Traded to Broncos

Although the NFL official free-agent season does not start until March 16th, two, star quarterbacks made groundbreaking decisions on Tuesday afternoon.

Aaron Rodgers decided to stay with the Green Bay Packers after two MVP seasons in a row. News broke early Tuesday morning stating that Rodgers plans to spend the next four years in Green Bay, as his 18th season in the NFL will begin in September.

In a much more shocking fashion, the Seattle Seahawks came to an agreement to trade nine-time Pro Bowl quarterback and Super Bowl Champion Russell Wilson to the Denver Broncos. Rumors have been swirling about Wilson’s desire to move to a new team, but many believed he would stay put in Seattle. However, the Broncos sent two first-round picks, two second-round picks, a fifth-round pick, and three players to the Seahawks in exchange for Wilson and a fourth-round pick.

The Seahawks now have the ninth overall pick in the 2022 draft, while the Broncos look to head to the Super Bowl.
