Russell Wilson, John Cena lead athlete tributes to David Bowie


Rock legend David Bowie passed away Sunday at the age of 69 after an 18-month battle with cancer.
Several athletes, including Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson, soccer great David Beckham and WWE superstar John Cena, have paid tribute to the musician, who sold more than 140 million albums in his career.
