Russell Wilson wants to make the Broncos 'a destination location'

Russell Wilson will have a very amiable contract with the Denver Broncos for at least the next three years.

Wilson is a not the NFL’s top-paid quarterback (his average salary ranks sixth), and he didn’t ask the team to reset the QB market.

Ward during the Peyton Manning era.

“I had such an amazing first decade of my career, and the next decade, I’m really excited about,” Wilson said.
