During an off-season where many star football players were long overdue for a contract extension, it isn 't too absurd to claim that Seattle Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson was the most deserving.
In pursuit to keep their dynasty flourishing, Seattle took their time with the whole process and it worked out quite well in their favor. Wilson, and the Seahawks have officially agreed to a four-year, $87.5 million contract extension.

Nonetheless, Wilson still remains a top five quarterback in my book. First of all, he is the ONLY quarterback in history to appear in two Super Bowls in his first three seasons.

This man is very talented and I believe he would perform the way he does on many other teams
On Friday night, the annual Ely TIgers vs. DIllard Panthers football game was played. On the last play of the 4th quarter, Donnell Wilson made a touchdown pass that won the game. Although some say that the catch was not that great, I think it was due to the fact that he passed his defensive back, leaped to make the catch,and scored the winning touchdown.

Dan Snyder the Redskins owner, decided to franchise tag Kirk Cousins because he showed the most improvement and felt like he could be the future franchise quarterback in the nation’s capital.
