The Denver Broncos have had a year to forget. The Denver-based franchise roped in the big-time Russell Wilson as their QB1 in a blockbuster deal. However, with the kind of performances their trusted QB has delivered for the team, the Broncos’ front office will be scratching their heads. Having failed to secure a return on their investment miserably in their first year, the Broncos will hope his second season is going to be just the opposite. As they reflect on his role as QB, a magazine released some unseen footage of Russell Wilson and made it popular in recent times.

The Broncos are currently 4-10 and have just three games to close their 2022 season. Even wins in all these three games will make their chances of securing a playoff spot very difficult. As the season comes to an end, a light memory of Russell Wilson will remind his teammates that they have a great athlete amongst them as they prepare for the next season.
Russell Wilson the baller
Russell Wilson grew up in Virginia. He had the privilege of attending a private school in Richmond, and he definitely has made the most of that platform.
He attended the Collegiate School. As most private schools have it, Collegiate also may have demanded their high schoolers to be three-sport athletes for their first couple years of high school.

Recent footage shows the hooper Wilson was. The video montage already has almost 10k views on Twitter. While he plays the role of QB, his role on the hardwood wasn’t much different. There was a compilation of him threading passes to his teammates as the bounce pass was seen as his go-to method for it. With not a lot of basketballing flair, he seemed like the ideal team player, always looking for his teammates.

He made a no-look pass in the video and also showcased his defensive hustle. It’s safe to say he picked up his athletic abilities from back in the day.
Tough time on and off the court for Wilson
This wasn’t the first time his tryst with basketball was publicized. Wilson has attended many NBA games courtside. A video of him balling at a Seahawks summer camp is also popular. As he tries to overcome his miserable season, Wilson continues to struggle to find love in Denver. A few fans got cheeky with their comments on his HS video.
This fan alluded to his popular saying and mixed it with his bounce-passing abilities.

This statement from a fan was up for deciphering, as it could have a positive or negative effect. However, it probably meant more of his QB abilities, given how much content of him passing the ball was in the video.
