Russell Wilson hasn’t made the best impression in the NFL world this season. The QB, unfortunately, did not live up to the hype of his entrance into the Denver Broncos. The team’s band-aid fix with the acquisition of Wilson did nothing to resolve their woes. After a dismal 5-12 record, it’s safe to say that Broncos Nation isn’t too pleased with the turn of events. Additionally, the QB and his superstar wife were circled by controversy after some dubious financial reports came to light. So, how has he managed to get into fans’ good graces?

The collision of the NFL and entertainment worlds is something that fans have gotten accustomed to. Russell Wilson and Ciara, two big names in their respective fields, are one of the league’s ‘it couples.’ In light of the negativity they’ve been surrounded by, the singer lifted fans’ collective opinion of her husband with one question. She took to Instagram to share a snippet of their offseason activities that left fans gushing over the QB. Let’s take a look at what went down.

Performance issues aside, Wilson’s somewhat ‘cheesy’ use of catchphrases and overly optimistic nature made fans wearisome.

However, in her latest Instagram update, Ciara captured another side of the QB. The singer shot a video of her husband on vacation.
