How far will the Broncos go in 2022? Only as far as Wilson takes them. On any given Sunday, particularly when Denver plays K.C., he’s going to have to be the best quarterback in the AFC West. by markkiszla
Although we want to believe Denver is a hip cosmopolitan city, the truth is Russ and Ciara already own this dusty old cowtown, barely six weeks after Paton pried the nine-time Pro Bowl quarterback and his immensely talented singing spouse from the forever-gray skies of Seattle to the magnificent sunshine of Colorado. When Russ and Ciara sat courtside during Nuggets playoff games, the congregation went wild for them, reducing MVP Nikola Jokic to No. 3 on the celebrity list in Ball Arena.
Drafted by the Colorado Rockies as an infielder in the fourth round of the 2010 MLB draft, Wilson also visited town in 2012 when he interviewed with John Elway with the Broncos looking for a young backup to newly acquired veteran Peyton Manning. “To be able to go to a new organization and a winning organization with an amazing city and an amazing place?” Wilson said.“It’s a blessing,” preached Reverend Russ, after going through his first spring practice at the team’s Dove Valley Headquarters. “To be here and standing right here … Now that I’m here, it feels right and it feels great.”
