The Denver Broncos quarterback is reportedly on the bench for this Sunday's game against the Los Angeles Chargers.
Wilson is currently one of the top ten quarterbacks in the league, so it seems like this decision is a sign of their ever-fading playoff hopes.
This move, according to Adam Schefter, was announced by head coach Sean Peyton, who spoke with Wilson before telling the team.
Reports from NFL Network's Ian Rapoport indicate that Wilson will sit for both of the final two games of the season for the Broncos.
Backup quarterback Jarrett Stidham will start in his place.
