Russell Wilson may no longer be a QB1 in the NFL, but the Super Bowl-winning quarterback has already found a brand new way to command an audience with his trademark fired-up speeches.
Wilson began the year as the quarterback of the New York Giants but was quickly benched for Jaxson Dart after a rocky 0-3 start to the season. He announced on Wednesday that he's officially joining Cameo. On this celebrity video platform, fans can purchase personalized messages and clips from sports and entertainment's biggest stars, including Hall of Famer Ray Lewis.

One five-star reviewer wrote, "This was the best Cameo I’ve ever received! Thank you, Russell, for taking my friend's joy so seriously. You're the best!" Another noted that the quarterback was booked to unveil a surprise 50th birthday message from a wife to her husband.
Despite his lucrative NFL contract, Wilson is charging $333 per video on the platform and positioning himself among the most expensive active athletes on the platform. Interestingly enough, Dart is also on Cameo and has been since attending the University of Mississippi.

Dart charges $400 per video with a verified 24-hour response time. His most recent upload was last Monday at 8:13 p.m., just one day after New York’s 24–20 loss to the Bears, where he was evaluated for a concussion and briefly replaced by Wilson.
The news broke just hours before the Giants released their injury report ahead of Sunday's matchup against Green Bay. While Dart goes through concussion protocol, the team announced that veteran Jameis Winston would start over Wilson, effectively closing the door on No. 3's tenure as the preferred passer in New York.
