Russell Wilson makes late-career agent change

Russell Wilson makes late-career agent change

Our Summary

Quarterback Russell Wilson has changed his representation, hiring David Mulugheta of Athletes First as his new agent after parting ways with Mark Rodgers. This marks Wilson's first agent change in his 14-year NFL career as he approaches his third free agency in as many years. The NFLPA records, which initially showed Wilson without an agent, now confirm Mulugheta as his representative. The switch comes ahead of Wilson's attempt to secure a new contract, with the possibility of only securing a one-year minimum deal due to his recent performance and reported injury issues. Wilson's future role in the NFL may involve accepting a backup quarterback position.
