New York Giants quarterback Russell Wilson slammed the claim that he was in any way related to Jeffrey Epstein after his name was mentioned in an email last week.
Wilson’s name was mentioned in an email chain among the 3 million people released Friday by the Justice Department. This was seen in correspondence between Epstein and his personal pilot, Larry Visoski. The two discussed the possibility of Wilson purchasing Epstein’s Gulfstream G-IV in 2019.

But Wilson firmly distanced himself from Epstein in an article on X.
“NO!!! ABSOLUTELY NOT! Not TODAY Satan!” he wrote. “An airplane broker Random tried to sell me a plane. I didn’t know who owned the plane and never bought it. I never spoke to or met the man.
“Thank God!!!”
Visoski wrote that Wilson, who was with the Seattle Seahawks at the time, was calling a broker about flying “non-stop.”
“Here’s the dilemma, according to Russell,” the email read. “Russell wants to sign a new contract with (the) Seattle SeaHawks before letting the media and his team know he’s buying a plane. He’s worried this might affect his contract negotiations for some reason?

“Russell is asking for a way to lock down the plane until his deal is signed, it could be 2 weeks, or 2 months or more. He took many photos and videos during the flight, with his wife or girlfriend Ciara (she’s a pretty popular singer).”
Visoski considered a potential deal that Epstein could offer to Wilson.
A representative for the Super Bowl champion told the Seattle Times that he “never purchased the plane, nor was he aware that the planes discussed by third parties had any connection to Epstein.”
The emails were released last week as part of the Justice Department’s collection of more than 3 million documents related to the investigation into the human trafficker and child sex offender.
Epstein was found dead in a Manhattan federal prison cell on August 10, 2019. It was later ruled a suicide.
