People often find ways to spend time during long flights, but the Broncos quarterback Russell Wilson made sure that he utilized it productively and left the fans wondering. He will play his first international game of the season this week and guess what? The passer had a workout session for more than four hours on his long flight to London.

The Broncos quarterback Russell Wilson missed the fourth game of his entire 11-season career last week due to a hamstring injury. However, this setback doesn’t seem to keep him away from practicing and conditioning his body. While his presence for the upcoming week is questionable, with head coach Nathaniel Hackett leaving it to the game day, Wilson used those 8 hours inside the flight to treat his limbs.

“The next four hours, I was doing treatment on the plane,” Wilson said to the reporters. “I was walking up and down the aisles. Everyone was knocked out. I was doing high knees and working on my legs end everything else, making sure I was ready to rock. So that was good.” He added. So far, the season has been terrible for Wilson with early jitters, and has registered a season record of 2-5 by the end of Week 7.
