Quarterback Zach Wilson and his wife, Nicolette Dellanno, enjoyed a lavish vacation in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico, after he completed his fifth NFL season, this one with the Dolphins, as seen in Instagram photos the influencer shared Tuesday.

 

 

 

“lil weekend getaway,” Dellanno, a New Jersey native, captioned the photo carousel that featured images of the couple at a sushi dinner and soaking up the sun.

The couple stayed at the Bahia Hotel & Beach House, where they frequent, and dined at SUR, the hotel’s beachfront club.

Dellanno also had her bachelorette party there last year.

Another snap showed Dellanno and Wilson — who married at St. Patrick’s Cathedral in New York City last June — with Falcons wide receiver David Sills and his partner, Hannah Cartwright.

Dellanno’s mother was also present during the trip, as seen in other photos.

 

 

 

 

The trip came after a turbulent season for the Dolphins, who finished 7-10 to seal their second consecutive losing season.

Wilson signed a one-year, $6 million deal last March to back up Tua Tagovailoa in 2025, and is now a free agent.

He had spent the previous season as the Denver Broncos’ third-string quarterback.

The former second-overall pick with the Jets appeared in just four games for the Dolphins this season, completing six passes for 32 yards.

Rookie Quinn Ewers was promoted to starting QB over Wilson after the team’s now-former head coach, Mike McDaniel, benched Tagovailoa late in the year.

 

 

 

 

“Obviously, I came here with Tua as the primary starter,” Wilson told the Palm Beach Post. “My goal here was, if I got a chance to get on the field ― obviously you never wish for anyone to get injured, but if by means that happened ― to have an opportunity to go out there and play. That was kind of what I expected. Obviously, I wish I could have played, but I understand how the season goes sometimes.”

Zach Wilson
Zach Wilson spent the past season with the Dolphins.

Last month, Wilson said he was “frustrated” and “maybe a little confused as well” when the Dolphins leapfrogged him in favor of Ewers, a seventh-round pick in last year’s draft.

Wilson recapped the season in an Instagram post after the Dolphins’ 38-10 loss to the Patriots in Week 18.

“Year 5. Grateful for the journey, the friendships, and the memories with the Miami Dolphins,” the BYU product wrote in an Instagram post Friday, including photos from the season.

 

 

 

The Dolphins are in the midst of revamping their organization.

The team hired Packers exec Jon-Eric Sullivan to serve as the new general manager after the firing of Chris Grier in October.

A search for McDaniel’s successor is also underway.

 

 

 

Then there’s the question at quarterback, given Tagovailoa said he would be open to a change of scenery in 2026.

He signed a four-year, $212.4 million contract extension with the Dolphins in July 2024.
