“He Just Walked Off”: Patrick Mahomes’ Big Buddy Recalls $245 Million Russell Wilson Hilarious Incident

When a big name in the NFL switches sides after years of service, it always raises eyebrows. It happened last year when Russell Wilson moved from the Seahawks to the Broncos. Joining a new side in the NFL, Wilson found it difficult to adapt to the Broncos and it reflected in his performances. This slipped into his fitness, which saw him incur an injury 5 weeks into the season. Losing one of their top earners in Wilson, Broncos went on to have one of the most disappointing seasons last year.

Consequently, Wilson took most of the heat for the Broncos falling flat on their face last season. He is the biggest name on the roster, and his arrival signaled good times for the Broncos. But there have been none so far, at least till now. This lack of form and performance has attracted comments from fellow NFL players. One of the stark comments comes from Patrick Mahomes‘ buddy Tyreek Hill. He discusses Russell Wilson with Bradley Chubb and his year with the Broncos so far on the show hosted by Vocal Podcast Network.

Wilson hopes to rebuild with old coach Sean Payton

Wilson has received quite the criticism for his shortfalls in the 2022 season. Especially after the rumored rejection of the Eagles approach last year before he signed with Denver. With so much pitted on the 2023 season, he will be looking to give his best.

With Sean Payton joining the Broncos as their head coach and the training sessions already underway, Wilson is positive for the upcoming season. Payton and Wilson have a history between them having won the Super Bowl during their time together at the Seattle Seahawks.

Russell Wilson will always attract critics and fans for his performances and consistency. But with his legacy on the line in the upcoming season, he will be gunning to bring out the best he has ever performed on the pitch.
