SHEESH!!!!

Now, you all had to know that Wilson was holding out for something good! But did you think it would be this good? Congrats on your new contract Russell Wilson! Read the details of his new and improved contract below:

Russell Wilson is staying with the Seattle Seahawks with what is reported to be a contract that will make him the highest-paid player in the NFL.

The quarterback, who set midnight Monday as a deadline to reach a long-term deal or he would break off negotiations,tweeted a videoof himself with wife, Ciara, at 12:44 a.m. Tuesday.

ESPN's Adam Schefter and NFL Network's Ian Rapoport report the deal is a four-year extension at $140 million that includes a $65 million signing bonus.

Rapoport said $107 million is guaranteed, plus there is a no-trade clause. This means Wilson, who had one year left on his old deal, is under contract in Seattle through the 2023 season.
