After 14 seasons in the NFL, 37-year-old quarterback Russell Wilson has made a decision on his next career move.
Wilson will join CBS Sports as an analyst, according to a report from Ryan Glasspiegel of Front Office Sports. Last month, The Athletic‘s Andrew Marchand previously reported that Wilson was a candidate to replace Matt Ryan on “The NFL Today.” Ryan left the show to join the Atlanta Falcons’ front office earlier this year.
Wilson apparently had an offer to join an NFL team as a backup, but he has opted to join CBS.
Wilson’s decision to transition to television presumably means his NFL career is over, but NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport tweeted that Wilson “may not be retiring.” At the very least, Wilson is putting “a pause” on his playing career, according to Rapoport. ESPN’s Adam Schefter is tweeting as if Wilson’s career is now over.
Wilson, a 10-time Pro Bowler and one-time Super Bowl champion, spent the majority of his career with the Seattle Seahawks, where he went 104-53-1 as a starter before being traded to the Denver Broncos. Wilson went 11-19 as a starter with the Broncos before being benched by coach Sean Payton, who drafted Bo Nix after cutting Wilson in 2024.
Wilson threw for 46,966 passing yards and 353 passing touchdowns while adding 5,568 rushing yards and 31 scores on the ground while playing with four NFL teams from 2012-2025.
