Russell Wilson is going through a tough time.
Russell Wilson and his wife, Ashton, have filed for divorce.
The Seahawks quarterback released a statement through the team on Wednesday.
"I have made the difficult decision to file for divorce," Wilson said. "Clearly, decisions like these don't come easy. Ashton and I respectfully ask for prayers, understanding and privacy during this difficult time. Moving forward, I will have no further comments on this personal matter."
Wilson is active on Twitter and Wednesday retweeted this:
Bible Scripture @Scripture_Truth Follow God never promises the absence of storms. He just promises to walk with us through them.
