Russell Wilson retires, joins CBS Sports as analyst

sportsJun 3, 202616591

Quarterback Russell Wilson announced his retirement on June 3 after 14 NFL seasons, posting a farewell titled "Thank you, Football." The 10-time Pro Bowl veteran, 2012 NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year and Super Bowl XLVIII champion will join CBS Sports' NFL Today pregame show as an analyst. Wilson's move from the field to a national studio role gives CBS a high-profile quarterback perspective and represents a rapid transition to broadcasting for one of the league's most decorated passers.

Cbs is the worst for football watching. Ive lost count of how many snaps /kicks etc ive missed because they are running a replay at the wrong time, or tuned the camera into the booth or the fans or played an extra PSA. And the camera angles are awful. Fox is so much better which i hate to say.

CBS, wow, loved Wilson in Seattle going to be hard to watch him if I'm boycotting CBS.

Russell Wilson helped get me back into the Seahawks, just in time for some extremely fun seasons and a franchise-first championship. He was also great to Seattle, especially the kids at Seattle Children's Hospital. Hats off to a champion.

Russell Wilson gave us a ton of great memories & help lead us to the first Super Bowl title, he may have been goofy & he may have been different but he helped establish the culture of winning in Seattle. It wasn’t a fairy tale ending but I am grateful we saw him at his best & we had him. Thanks 3

Russell Wilson is the all time Seahawks QB. I’ve praised him, cheered for him, criticized him, etc. though it’s that one play that most will define him by. Yeah at times was a weirdo, dork, had a lot of robotic / lame statements but he delivered He will be in the HOF but it’ll be a long long while
