After his benching and later demotion to third-string with the New York Giants this season, Russell Wilson is planning on giving it another go in 2026 with a new team.

Russell Wilson stepped into the global spotlight for reasons that had nothing to do with football. While attending a major cultural gathering tied to an Afro-descendant recognition initiative, the veteran NFL quarterback revealed that his citizenship process to become a Beninese has started.
