Russell Wilson is back after sitting out Week 7 with a hamstring injury. And boy, did Russ look rusty.

The Denver Broncos offense couldn’t have had a worse start, going three-and-out on their first drive, including a near interception from Wilson and a sack of the quarterback.

After the teams traded punts, Wilson threw his second pass of the game and it somehow got worse. He under-threw a ball right to the Jags, and the Broncos defense had to defend plus territory.

The Denver defense couldn’t do it and the Broncos fell behind 7-0 early.

Wilson now has five touchdowns and four picks on the season. He’s getting over both a hamstring and shoulder injury in his first season in Denver.
