Russell Wilson was selected by the Seahawks in the third round of the 2012 NFL Draft, and secured the starting quarterback role as a rookie despite the team’s recent signing of Matt Flynn. Over his career with Seattle, Wilson was a nine-time Pro Bowl selection (2012–2015, 2017–2021) and earned second-team AP All-Pro honors in 2019. Wilson was also named the Seahawks Man of the Year in 2014 and 2020, the latter year earning him the prestigious Walter Payton NFL Man of the Year Award. Wilson was the starting quarterback for the Seahawks’ back-to-back Super Bowls. During Seattle’s Super Bowl XLVIII win over Denver, Wilson threw for 206 yards and two touchdowns with a 123.1 passer rating. He was named to the NFL Top 100 list nine times and holds a litany of Seahawks franchise records, including highest career passer rating (101.8), most career passing yards (37,059), most career touchdown passes (292), most career rushing yards by a quarterback (4,689), and most combined wins by a starting quarterback (113).
