The Denver Broncos signed Russell Wilson this offseason as an answer to all their problems. But since the beginning of the 2022 season, their problems have actually compounded. Amidst a disastrous season, Wilson has admitted that tough times in Denver have hurt the Broncos’ campaign. But he is also excited to get back on the field after missing the last game for the franchise.

The Broncos signed Wilson in a trade with the Seattle Seahawks that included multiple future draft picks. But the veteran QB has struggled after moving out of Washington.

Russell Wilson about the disastrous Broncos campaign 

The Broncos are already out of the playoff contention after losing ten of their 14 games so far. The franchise injury reserve list is severely bloated with 20 players on it. And so many injuries have certainly impacted the game Wilson intended to play with the Broncos this season. He spoke about his season with his new team and said he has never been a part of such a wild season.

“It’s been a wild season. I’ve never been a part of a season this wild—a lot of injuries, a lot of things,” Wilson said. But he is already looking towards the future, especially the Christmas day clash with the reigning Super Bowl champions Los Angeles Rams. The Rams are the first Super Bowl champions since 2016 to not get to the playoffs next season. The previous one was, guess what, the Broncos.

“I’m excited. I’m excited about this game right here. This is the one that matters the most,” the QB said. The Broncos and Wilson are now playing to end the season on a high for a bit of momentum going into the next season. The current campaign is one to be forgotten.

A forgettable Broncos debut season 

Russell Wilson’s arrival in Denver brought a lot of optimism among the Broncos country. But all of it has evaporated in the past 15 weeks. The Broncos are 4-10 at this point of the season and Wilson has failed to emulate his form that made him a household name as a Seahawks player.

The QB has thrown 2,805 passing yards this season with a completion rate of 60.4%. He has thrown just 11 passing touchdowns as a Bronco while the opposing defenses have intercepted six of his 394 pass attempts.

With this season almost done and dusted for the franchise, will the Broncos give Wilson another shot next season when he finally has his full complement of offensive targets available to him? And if they do, will Wilson shed the ghosts of this season and rise to the occasion?
