Summary
Russell Wilson is officially retiring from the NFL after 14 seasons, but don’t pack up the highlights — he’s stepping into a new role as a CBS Sports analyst, joining The NFL Today. In a heartfelt video, he reflected on his journey, thanking coaches, teammates, fans, and especially his family, with Ciara calling him her greatest inspiration. From being told he was too small to play, to becoming a franchise QB in Seattle — the city that “raised me” — Wilson credits his father’s drive and his kids’ future with carrying that fire. He’s not walking away from football, just changing lanes — and fans are already excited for his next chapter. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
