According to ESPN Senior NFL Insider Adam Schefter, the trade has been made after weeks of negotiations.
“One of the largest trades in NFL history,” Schefter said.
Broncos quarterback Drew Lock, defensive lineman Shelby Harris, Noah Fant and multiple draft picks are all part of the deal, according to Ian Rapoport of the NFL Network.
According to Schefter, Wilson is expected to waive his no-trade clause, freeing the Seahawks to send him to Denver.

The trade is pending a physical and Wilson’s approval.
The trade gives Denver the quarterback it has sought since Peyton Manning retired and it gives Seattle a foundation on which to rebuild without the quarterback who led the Seahawks to their only Super-Bowl title.
