Wilson’s performance issues

With both shoulder and hamstring injuries, the odds don’t look great for the QB and the team. The responsibility of deciding whether Wilson is fit for play falls on head coach Nathaniel Hackett.

The head coach himself seems to be having too much on his place during his first season at Denver. Fans are looking towards Hackett and Wilson for the Broncos’ redemption. But, the QB’s injury is yet another blow to their underwhelming season.

The quarterback seems to be confident in his healing abilities, but fans may not find reassurance in words but in his performance on-field. “Winning heals all wounds, that’s what we need to do, win,” Wilson said towards the end of the press conference. Wilson did not confirm if he will be ready for the Broncos’ next game against the New York Jets. The Broncos Country will hope that their ‘wolverine’ is back in shape in the upcoming weeks.
