The starting quarterback of the Denver Broncos has become the reason for all the jokes this season. Aside from watching their teams win games, fans’ second favorite activity is now trolling Russell Wilson. Denver is 3-10 and still uncertain about the QB, who was going to help them win the Super Bowl title this year. Despite all the negative air around the Super Bowl winner, a former teammate of Wilson spoke affirming words for him.
Richard Sherman played with Wilson when they were with the Seattle Seahawks. There have been highs and lows in their relationship. The QB’s exit from the team left some bitterness in the free agent’s mouth. Sherman claimed Pete Carroll favored DangeRuss more than the other 52 players on the roster.

The Super Bowl-winning cornerback said, “There’s no hostility, at all. You know, the truth never expires. He’s a great human being, you know, a great dad, great, great father. He’s a cool teammate. But I think there was blame being slandered around and people getting fired, and told they weren’t doing a good job and it wasn’t all their fault and they were getting blamed for it.”
Also, Marshawn Lynch and Sherman once confessed that they never had Russell Wilson‘s phone number. If they wanted to contact the nine-time Pro Bowler, they had to get through his manager. However, when asked about his where Sherman and Wilson’s rapport stood. For now, the Broncos QB is dealing with something more serious than having his ex-teammates get angry with him for not sharing his phone number.
Russell Wilson suffered a brutal blow to his head
The 34-year-old quarterback hit his head violently and allegedly suffered a concussion while playing against the Kansas City Chiefs. In the fourth quarter, Wilson hurried toward the goal line. However, he slammed his head forcefully on the turf.
The team members of the Denver Broncos quickly called for medical help right before the cameras noticed his great fall. After recollecting his balance, the QB stood up and was escorted to the medical tent.
The injury was so severe that a visible bump appeared on his temple.
