“Star NFL Quarterback Files for Divorce, Citing Irreconcilable Differences”

Russell Wilson and wife Ciara have sold their Denver mansion for $21.5million, marking a $3.5m loss for the couple as they pack up and head to Pittsburgh.

Wilson put his stunning 11,000-sq-ft mansion in Cherry Hills Village – a wealthy suburb in the area – up for sale at the start of the month after he was released by the Broncos, bringing an end to his miserable two-year stint with the franchise.

Since being cut, the former Seattle Seahawks quarterback has already been snapped up by the Steelers, who signed him to a one-year contract less than a week later.

Denver only handed Wilson a five-year, $245m contract extension 19 months ago – before he’d even played a single down for the team – and will now pay a record $86m in dead-cap charges, marking one of the worst trades in NFL history.

However, it’s not only the Broncos paying the price for his failed move to Empower Field.

Russell Wilson knows a thing or two about his wife’s music catalog.

The NFL star couldn’t help but name a handful of his wife Ciara’s songs when tasked to list his “top three” during a recent interview with I AM ATHLETE.

“Well, number one, I would say ‘Ride.’ I love watching that video. Number two, I would say ‘Body Party’ because there’s a moment in that song [when] I saw her smile, and I was like, ‘That’s the one for me.’ I’ve seen her smile in that video, and I was like, ‘She’s the one for me.'”
