The next best thing to being Seattle Seahawks star quarterback Russell Wilson, is playing him in commercials.
Randall Bacon is a former college player, who didn’t make it to the NFL. He’s now eating good, and living out his dream playing the Seahawks quarterback’s body double. It sounds like a crazy job until you find out the perks.
According to MMBQ.com, Bacon estimated his 2014 earnings as Wilson’s double are over $100,000. This is thanks in large part to the Seahawks winning the Super Bowl and every sponsor wanting a piece of Wilson, and ultimately Bacon. He’s had parts in other commercials and television shows, but being Wilson’s double is most lucrative.
