Denver Broncos quarterback Russell Wilson is a devout Christian and frequently shares his religious faith and belief.
The 33-year-old footballer is regarded as one of the greatest dual-threat QBs in NFL history and holds the record for most wins (98) by an NFL QB in nine seasons.
He is most widely known for his time at the Seattle Seahawks (2012-2021) and is also a part owner of the MLS side Seattle Sounders FC.
Russell Wilson Religion: God Faith And Belief
Russell Wilson is a devoted and proud Christian.
He is very outspoken about his faith and beliefs. He frequently posts Bible verses on his timeline on his social media accounts.
The Super Bowl champion said he became a Christian when he was 14 after Jesus appeared to him in his dream one night. He believes that following God has helped him become a better person and has changed his life for the best.
After being the highest-paid player in the NFL in April 2019, the first thing he did was to give glory to God. He always praises God for his victories on and off the field.

Further, he wears the number 3 jersey to honor the Holy Trinity. Even though there were reports that he chose number 3 because the Seahawks selected him in the third round, it has been confirmed that the religious reason is valid.
Wilson and his wife, Ciara, vowed to be celibate until they married to build a stronger relationship per Christian values.
So, we could say that Russell seeks God in whatever decisions he makes.
Is Russell Wilson Gay? Gender And Sexuality
Russell Wilson is officially straight. The 33-year-old was married to Ashton Meem from 2012 to 2014 and is currently married to pop star Ciara since 2016.
Rumors that Russell is gay have been circulating now and then. First, it arose after news came out that he was filing for divorce from his then-wife of two years and high school sweetheart, Ashton.
Wilson did not provide any detailed comment on this matter, but Ashton had allegedly cheated on him with Golden Tate, and the two had been living separately for some time. It led to the speculation that he was secretly gay.
Further, news that he and his current wife Ciara abstained before marriage led to more gay rumors.

Other than Ashton and Ciara, Russell is said to have had an encounter with 25-year-old model and online sensation Reina Westberg.
