Quarterback Russell Wilson is still searching for his next NFL team. But he briefly joined a new team in a different sport Sunday.
Wilson made an appearance with the Savannah Bananas at Yankee Stadium on Sunday. The veteran signal-caller posted videos of the appearance on his X account.
“Fun times with the fans! My kids love the day!” Wilson posted on X. “Thanks Jesse Cole for the call!
“I remember you were my GM when I was 19 years old! Proud of the movement you’ve built!”
The other video Wilson posted was of himself with screaming fans, most of which were kids, in the background. The video also showed quarterback signing autographs for the kids.
The Savannah Bananas were at Yankee Stadium from April 25-26 with their 2026 Banana Ball World Tour. The event was sold out with more than 40,000 fans.
Wilson’s appearance with the Bananas came with his NFL future very much in doubt. The veteran quarterback hasn’t had much buzz about where he might play next season since the start of NFL free agency in early March.
In 2025, Wilson started three games for the New York Giants. He also appeared in three other contests in relief.
The prior season, Wilson made 11 starts, going 6-5 for the Pittsburgh Steelers.
