Russell Wilson congratulates Ben Roethlisberger after his final home game

Tom Brady’s career will outlive our civilization at this rate, but every other quarterback from his generation is gone or about to be. Last night, Ben Roethlisberger played what will be his final home game for the Steelers.

Afterwards, Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson shared a message of congratulations on Twitter.

In a predictable development, Wilson’s mentions are flooded with fans of  teams who are hoping he’ll jump ship this offseason.

The rumor mill got going early this year in regards to Wilson’s future, but there are several important factors working against the likelihood that he’ll change teams. First, Wilson denies he requested a trade to begin with last year. Second, Wilson has a no-trade clause, so he ultimately controls where he’ll play. Third, there are very few NFL teams that offer Wilson a better opportunity to continue competing at a high level and none that can help his legacy more.
