Russell Wilson Reportedly Created “Unusual Team Dynamic” in Denver Broncos Amidst Disastrous Season

When Russell Wilson came to the Denver Broncos in last year’s off-season, he brought a lot of hope. The 34-year-old told reporters he planned to win at least three or four Super Bowl titles with Denver. But things would turn upside down for him and his new team. ‘The Orange Crush’ finished the season 5-12, possibly the worst season in the history of Denver. Wilson’s new franchise accommodated and gave him everything he could not get when he was Seattle Seahawks‘ QB. Despite that, Russ failed to bring wins.

Along with Russ came his personal quarterback coach, Jake Heaps, whom he met in 2016, a nutritionist and a physical therapist. Former head coach, Nathaniel Hackett, allowed him to bring his army of men who would have helped him win games.

Russell Wilson – QB did what others had never done before!

The Athletic reported that it created an “unusual team dynamic” that Wilson developed between himself, the team executives, and the coaches. The arrangement that the 9x Pro Bowl made for himself was unprecedented. No other player had done that before.

“No one else I have been around has ever been able to have those people in there – which, looking back on it, not a good idea,” a member of the 2022 Broncos coaching staff said.

Additionally, the team gave the Walter Payton NFL Man of the Year an office on the second floor of the team facility building. Again, this was rare because players usually went to the second floor when they were getting released. Wilson’s office had motivational quotes stuck on the wall, a whiteboard with football-related scribblings, and a T.V. which only aired on the NFL Network. Clearly, the man was obsessed with winning and making a change.

Wilson was all about football until he wasn’t

Players noted that Russell Wilson was all about football. He would approach players to talk about new game strategies. The Super Bowl XLVIII winner had an open-door policy which was questioned by a coach. “So, are you a coach or are you a player? Your open door should be you sitting at your locker.”

He even arranged for meetings on Tuesdays (the team’s only day off). Some grumbled about being there, but otherwise, it was well-attended. There, he showed films of their future opponents and built strategies to defeat them. But it was all in vain.

Hence, how did a QB who was determined to make some serious change not show his football knowledge on the field? Despite building complex and unique relationships with the team, Russ failed to bring his A-game.
