Wilson recently appeared on Brandon Marshall’s “I Am Athlete” podcast, engaging in an 84-minute interview where Marshall probed him about his uncertain future in the NFL.
Amid swirling rumors suggesting the Broncos may part ways with Wilson after just two seasons, the quarterback expressed his desire to remain in the Mile High City, although he acknowledged the possibility of being elsewhere in 2024.
“I’ve got more fire than ever, honestly, especially over the past two years of what I’ve gone through,” Wilson affirmed. “Whether it’s in Denver or somewhere else, I hope it’s in Denver, I hope I get to finish there. I committed there, I wanted to be there. I want to be there.”
During the podcast, Marshall listed the odds of Russell Wilson landing with other teams he was reportedly linked to, with the Atlanta Falcons and Pittsburgh Steelers among the top contenders. Nonetheless, the Broncos still hold favorable odds of retaining the veteran QB.
“Well, I’m going to put Denver 1, because I’m there right now, but I think you have to have the ability to compartmentalize that,” Wilson elaborated. “Listen, it’s a business, and you’ve got to be non-emotional about it … and no matter what you control to what you can control. … If it’s not [in Denver], though, I’ve got to go to a place where we can win again.”
