Broncos Mailbag: Could Denver keep Russell Wilson for 2024 to play until a rookie is ready?

Hi Parker, I know Russell Wilson is likely going to get cut but here’s a thought. What about keeping Wilson for another season while the Broncos bring along a rookie QB? I would imagine he’ll play slightly better in his second year in the offense and it would allow a rookie QB time to learn Payton’s offense. If Denver did that, what would the cap hit be following next season?
