Russell Wilson‘s wife, Ciara, and model Kendall Jenner were seen at an extraordinary event: It was the Mercedes-Benz’s G-Class launch in Los Angeles. Sharing the pictures and videos from the event day on her Instagram handle, Ciara could be seen donned in The Frankie Shop Delphina burgundy coat. Like many stars present at the event, including Tracee Ellis Ross, Ciara opted for a more warm outfit. Apart from these two, there were other big names present at the over $81 billion worth-brand’s event.

Kendall Jenner, Bradley Cooper, Travis Scott, and Saweetie’s presence made it more glamorous. Jenner particularly attracted attention through her distinct outfit. It was different from her usual Bottega Veneta dresses. She chose to wear a coat and pant attire in a shade of brown from Phoebe Philo. As guests rested on the black sofas, they sipped on Jenner’s 818 Tequila. With some performances from pop and rap stars in attendance and a look at the stunning new automobile model, the event was filled with some rather memorable moments.

But coming back to Ciara, this hasn’t been the only association Ciara and Russell Wilson have with the big brand. Back in 2022, the power couple, during their Wimbledon visit to the UK, also decided to go to Stuttgart, Germany. This vacation turned out to be a memorable one as the duo not only got to visit the Mercedes-Benz headquarters but their kids also were given some amazing presents- Mercedes-AMG hats, one Mercedes-AMG toy car, and a scale model of a Mercedes-AMG G 63 in red.

Apart from that, the family also had dinner with the chairman of the management board, Ola Källenius, and the Head of Global Communications Bettina Fetzer. However, while Ciara once again joined the billion-dollar brand, Wilson wasn’t captured at the event and there is a reason behind that. The 2024 NFL Draft is going on and the Steelers’ draft day did not witness any special gains.

Who will Russell Wilson’s team pick on Day 2 of the NFL Draft?

The Steelers chose no. 20 during the first round of the pick in the form of Troy Fautanu as their offensive tackle. Although the Pittsburgh Steelers may have bagged their first pick, round 2 brings three more choices. By now, most people would expect the best players to be taken off the table. The team seems to have gotten lucky with Cooper Dejean, Jackson Powers-Johnson, Zach Frazier, and more still being available.

However, by the time the 51st pick rolls around, they might all be gone. There is no saying how day 2 could play out for the Steelers. But one thing is for sure. Things seem to be more exciting than the mock drafts that came out days ago.

For quite a while now, the Pittsburgh Steelers have had their choices for the 2024 NFL Draft picked out. However, it looks like some of the other first-round picks have thrown a wrench into their plans. While the team expected to miss out on athletes like JJ McCarthy, Laiatu Latu, and more, they ended up losing out on some players that they had wanted to bring on.

At No.23, the team saw the defense player, Brian Thomas, being drafted by the Jaguars. While the mock drafts had placed him with the Steelers, it was no surprise that he ended up being swept up. Another pre-draft visitor who wound up being picked by the Forty-Niners was Ricky Pearsall and, even wide receiver, Xavier Legette.

Russell Wilson’s team may have seen most of the top picks being taken away by their rivals. However, there is still hope for round 2. After all, with Ladd McConkey and Malachi Corley still in the running, the Steelers could go out on a limb to bring in one of the players after Troy Fautanu.
