There have been a few talented NFL families over the years. The Manning family boasts multiple-time MVP Peyton Manning, two-time Super Bowl champion Eli Manning and No. 1 high school commit Arch Manning. That's not to mention Archie Manning, Peyton and Eli's talented father.
Russell Wilson is not part of one of those families. His parents weren't involved in the NFL and nor are any of his siblings. His kids are fairly young, but one of them, his stepson Future, might be on the way to making a dynasty.
He's only eight years old, but fans have predicted a future in football after watching him workout with Wilson.

NFL families that the Wilsons could join someday
The Mannings, as mentioned, are probably the most famous football family. It will be interesting to see if Arch Manning makes the NFL, continuing his family's legacy. However, there are definitely a lot more football families than just the Mannings.
The Matthews family has also forged a reputation in the NFL. Clay Matthews III is a former Green Bay Packers linebacker of great repute. His grandfather, Clay Matthews Sr., played in the league for the San Francisco 49ers between 1953-55. His father, Clay Matthews Jr., played for the Cleveland Browns and the Atlanta Falcons in a career that spanned between 1978-1996.
Matthews Jr. recorded 1,561 tackles, the seventh-most in NFL history. Matthews Jr. had a brother named Bruce Matthews. He played guard, center, offensive tackle and long snapper for the Houston/Tennessee Oilers/Titans between 1983-2001. Clay Matthews III has a brother named Casey Matthews, who played for the Philadelphia Eagles and the Minnesota Vikings between 2011-2015.
Bill Belichick, meanwhile, is perhaps the best coach of all time. His son Stephen is an assistant coach with the New England Patriots, making them quite the father-son duo.
Howie Long, a current analyst, had a decorated career and two stellar footballing sons: Kyle and Chris. Kyle Long is currently a free agent after playing for the Chicago Bears and most recently the Kansas City Chiefs. Chris Long is one of six players to win consecutive Super Bowls for different teams. He won Super Bowl LI with the Patriots and Super Bowl LII with the Philadelphia Eagles.
Right now, the Edmunds are a prominent football family with three active players: Trey, Tremaine and Terrell. Ferrell Edmunds, their father, also had a footballing career.
The Watt family is one of the most popular families in the league right now. Derek Watt and T.J. Watt both play for the Pittsburgh Steelers, while J.J. Watt plays for the Arizona Cardinals.
