Russell Wilson's Height
5ft 10 ½ (179.1 cm)
American footballer, who has played Quarterback for the Seattle Seahawks. He was measured at the draft as 5ft 10 ⅝ and an ESPN article mentioned "He is, after all, 5-foot-10 and five-eighths inches tall, which is 3 and three-eighths inches short of the NFL standard".

I was gonna try to put some socks under these feet and try to get know, a couple extra inches, I had my hair all tall, and I had it all gelled up. And I'm thinking to myself 'Man, I'm gonna be a good six foot, six-one with this hair, you know.' This hair is growing long. Sure enough, I know I measured myself, my true height, I'm like 5'10 7 and some extra - so anyways, sure enough this dude measured me at 5'10 1/4". And I'm like...I was hot.

Quarterback Russell Wilson (5-foot-11 3/8, 206 pounds) put on a show Wednesday at the University of Wisconsin’s pro day. Working out in front of all 32 teams and Seahawks QB coach Darrell Bevell, Bears coaches Jeremy Bates and Mike Tice and Packers GM Ted Thompson, Wilson threw the ball a total of 65 times and only four times did the ball hit the ground. I’m not sure exactly where he will be drafted, but I think this guy could be as high as a second-round pick.

That video had tough angles to be fair. I don’t think anything less than a 2 inch difference however.

@Viper: see his quote above. I know he also received a 5103 somewhere. 5’10.25 is probably accurate. Do you see how in denial he was when mayfield stood back to back with him? Not so much in denial that he was shorter than baker but in denial that he’s not as tall as he claims

Baker looks 2.5 inches taller imo. Putting Baker 6’0.25 and Russ 5’9.75. Even on his tip toes Baker easily edged him, crazy!
But in reality Russell Is probably just 5’10 and Baker 6’0.25 maybe.

5'10 3/8 would be the most he'd be in the afternoon on. Possibly lunchtime then 5'10.25 low

Kyler Murray listed 5'10. Measured 5'10.125 is like 5'10 1/8. Read he got measured 5'9 7/8 too which is prob his afternoon so at lowest he'd be 5'9.75

I’m not really shocked that him and other football players have been measured at different heights I’ve been measured at different heights at different doctors places though they’re all a inch apart though nothing big and all where barefoot and all said it was accurate.
Though I’ve used a blue stadiometer like yours and different walls at home I always get the same heights all the measuring tapes say the same.
I think Wilson is fine with 5’10 1/2.

@Editor Rob: why not 5’10.25” being that’s what he measured here and it says just a hair over 5’10? He only measured 5’10 5/8” the other time and that was likely early morning. He exaggerated a bit with 7/8”. I’m willing to bet the 1/4” over was at a Pro Day or Somewhere else. He seems like someone who wishes he were taller than he is. You also said below that he may fall to 5’10-5’10.25 range, which implies that 5’10.5 is much earlier in the day. You have always said you assume someone is around a lunchtime or afternoon height when you list them

Editor Robit was one guy that got him 10.25, then he had 5ft 10.5+ another occasion. Maybe it is possible he lies within that range, depending on the time you measure him.

Rob I have a question: Can measurements at the doctor's office be inaccurate because of the story I told you about my doctor my measuring me at approximately 6' 1.28" rather than 6' 2.63", my barefoot height measured for basketball? I also took your advice and measured at home with the help of my dad and he called out 6' 1", 6' 1 1/2", and 6' 2" flat! My friend also says he was measured at 5' 10 1/2" for football and he's probably around 4 inches shorter than I am and another one of my football friends claims 6' 1" and he's probably around an inch and half shorter than me as well.

@Viper: that’s odd that Paxton lynch has a 6’5 5/8 measurement yet measured 6’6 5/8 at the combine. I wonder which is accurate or if he grew slightly. I can believe Baker Mayfield’s measurement brings he got 6’0 5/8” at the combine. He looks short. I also wonder about Carson Wentz. I wonder if his 6’5.25 was maybe 2 hours after waking at the Senior Bowl or something being he looks a legit 6’5”. He’s taller than Foles. The 6’5” flat may be his afternoon height and maybe he wasn’t measured at the combine

I'm highly convinced Wilson and Murray flawed their heights at the combine to raise their draft stock and probably don't measure more than 5'9.5".

@Canson I know but Russell has been measured at a flat 5'11, he's been measured at 5 10 1/4, and he's been measured at 5'10 1/2. It's safe to say he's peak 5'11 flat, and during the day he gets down to 5'10 1/4. I have no issues with Wilson claiming 5'11 as he's been measured at that height.

@Josue and Rob: I have him at 5’10.25. That lines up with his measurement he received at his Pro Day or Senior Bowl can’t remember which but Viper would know. Anyhow I did a comparison of 2006 players once and everyone who attended Senior Bowl measured 3/8-5/8” less on average than at the combine. Examples Nick Mangold 6’3.25 vs 6’3 5/8 Marcedes Lewis 6’5 7/8 vs 6’6 3/8 Deangelo Williams 5’8 3/8 or 1/2 vs 5’9”. Vincent Jackson 6’4 3/8 and 6’4.75 amongst others. It also said in the article that rise and shine was 6 am and that they drug tested them went to do physicals right after. So that equates to around an hour after waking. I lose the same 3/8” after an hour. Rob could be right in that he was first but that means he may be lower than 5’10.25”. Also if you look at when the tweets from guys come out it’s usually 7 or 8 am and when the measurements are published it’s no later than 9 am East. If it takes place in the Midwest which is frequent then that says it on how early it is

That doesn’t make sense about sitting in a chair all day. I measure the same height in the afternoon sitting in a chair which by the way is your normal height as Rob has said. Standing makes you lose more than sitting. And Wilson’s pro day or senior bowl one of them was 5’10.25. The 5’10 5/8 was early morning which is how they all measure at the combine. Combine measurement is held about an hour after they wake up

Russel was measured at 5'11 at his UW Pro Day. The Combine measurement might have been Wilson sitting in the chair all morning talking to GMs and coaches compressing his spine. Here's Russell Pro Day results Click Here. He should be bumped to 5'11 even in my opinion as players are typically a little taller, and run faster at their Pro Days when compared to the Combine.

Is it possible for a 5'7 woman to edge out an almost 5'11 man with heels that don't have a platform? I know you said heels without platforms can only give you 3 inches because of the arch or something right? Russell with Ciara slightly edging him out. I believe he also has 1 inch worth of footwear.

Quarterback Russell Wilson (5-foot-11 3/8, 206 pounds) put on a show Wednesday at the University of Wisconsin’s pro day. Working out in front of all 32 teams and Seahawks QB coach Darrell Bevell, Bears coaches Jeremy Bates and Mike Tice and Packers GM Ted Thompson, Wilson threw the ball a total of 65 times and only four times did the ball hit the ground. I’m not sure exactly where he will be drafted, but I think this guy could be as high as a second-round pick.

I wouldn't take draft heights seriously.
This - Click Here - video has Wilson standing next to 6 5/8ths Baker Mayfield. Mayfield says he's wearing converse and Russell says he's wearing Air Maxes. Even so, Mayfield is clearly taller than him even when Russell is on his tip-toes. Flat footed there is at least a 2.5" difference even accounting for camera angle.

@Christian and Bobby: I think Rob would measure 5’8 1/2 or 5’8 5/8 at the combine since we’re talking an hour out of bed. Christian may be right if Rob was in the minority he may just be 5’8 3/8 if he had been in line longer. After seeing the articles and tweets during that time, I would believe that the combine begins around 6 and that measurements are completed within the 7 o’clock hour. Some may lose a fraction more but from what I’ve seen combine measurements are typically 3/8-1/2” higher than a Senior Bowl or Pro Day for example Vincent Jackson 6’4.75/6’4.375. Jackson would be more like Bobby and me being he would be around 6’4 3/8. He may edge both of us by a hair since he is a full 194 while I’m more like 193.7-.8. The nick mangold 6’3 5/8-6’3 1/4 at Senior Bowl then Dangelo Williams was 5’9 at the combine and 5’8.5 at the Bowl
As for Wilson he’s definitely closer to 5’10 than 5’11. He would be 5’10 1/8 or 1/4 at a low and would be a strong 5’10 as opposed to “almost 5’11”

The average height for a running back and a cornerback really hasn’t gotten that much taller over the years, as it has been shown that it’s necessary for them to be shorter than the average football player. There have been a few exceptions though (Richard Sherman and Adrian Peterson). I would say that the average for both positions is around 5’10” still.

Could you add pages for Ray Lewis and Adrian Peterson? Ray Lewis has been listed as being 6’0”, and also at 6’1” throughout his career. He looks like a 184 CM guy to me. Adrian Peterson, however, was measured at 6’1 1/2” (or maybe 6’1 3/8”), but gets listed as being 6’1” always. He’s likely 6’1” at his low.

To be fair guys, 5'10 is a severe drawback at that quarterback position. His Linemen will on average have nearly half a foot of height on him so we're talking a pretty severe disadvantage as far as seeing the field is concerned.
That being said, Wilson is a freak of nature with over 10 inch hands and a fair bit of speed. It seems to balance out well. Your average quarterback seems to be dropping closer to the strong 6'2 range with the need for mobility in arguably the fastest iteration of the NFL to date.

Whether he is 5'10, 5'10.5, or 5'11, he is still pretty short to be playing quarterback in the NFL, but look at him shattering records and winning titles. He uses his height to his advantage in being nimble and escaping the defense. An inspiration to the shorter QB's, that height is not a requirement to be successful, but skill is. Not to mention, he has a gorgeous wife, I'd say life is going pretty good for him.

@Redwing, the "too short for his position" talking point has been one in the NFL at least since the 80's when Doug Flutie - who played at 5'9" I believe - also got underestimate because of his height. And, it's especially true, today, with every position getting significantly taller and heavier on average, so it's not a crazy talking point.
I'm also surprised how everyone thinks he looks taller than his listing. Particularly as he's gained weight, he's really just looked a flat 5'10" to me. And he REALLY looks short in a game. The average league height for a quarterback was over 6'3" back in 2015. Don't follow the game closely to know, but he was also the shorter quarterback in the league that year and may still be.
