Broncos Country went crazy when the Russell Wilson news broke
Mar 8, 2022, 1:23 PM
Only an hour after being gutted by the Aaron Rodgers news, Broncos Country received a much better prize when the team traded for Russell Wilson.
In one of the craziest two hour stretches in Broncos history, the team went from missing out on Rodgers to acquiring Wilson. Both have won Super Bowls, but Wilson is significantly younger and should be in Denver a lot longer than Rodgers would have been.
After Adam Schefter broke the massive story, Broncos Country went nuts on Twitter.

Remember, Russell Wilson always wanted to play on big-league stage in Denver since he was drafted by then Rockies farm director Bill Schmidt in 4th rd of 2010 draft. Played 2 years in low minors, hit .229/5 HR/26 RBI/19 SB (old school slashes). Second baseman. #9sports
