Former Super Bowl-winning quarterback Russell Wilson has officially called time on his NFL career, bringing an end to a remarkable 14-year run that included a championship and 10 Pro Bowl selections.

The 37-year-old announced his retirement on Wednesday through a video posted on social media, where he reflected on his journey and thanked family, teammates, and former Seattle Seahawks head coach Pete Carroll.

Wilson will join CBS Sports as a studio analyst for The NFL Today, replacing former NFL quarterback Matt Ryan.

He leaves the game as one of the highest-paid quarterbacks in NFL history, with an estimated net worth of between $165 million and $185 million, according to Spotrac.

Over the course of his career, Wilson reportedly earned more than $300 million in NFL salary alone, making him one of the league's top career earners.

Wilson retires with an impressive statistical resume, completing 64.6% of his passes for 46,966 yards, 353 touchdowns, and 114 interceptions across 205 career games and 202 starts.
