As the 2022 NFL season is yet to start, all the teams are busy promoting their side with their leading faces. Recently, a sneak peek video clip was posted on social media by the Broncos of their leading QB, Russell Wilson. No matter the motive behind the video, it did not go well, and the NFL world reacted to it hilariously. 

Sports analyst Pat McAfee had posted a video on his YouTube channel ‘The Pat McAfee Show’ titled “Broncos Post The Most Awkward Video Of Russell Wilson EVER”. In the video, Pat discusses the whole scenario and what the world is currently thinking about the Broncos.

Pat said, “He was selling out for that. They were going all in and it was only supposed to be one clip, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump to everybody. And then the show is 7 different variations.” He adds, “That’s him being a thespian and buying in and trying to make the Broncos better. And that social media team. They still get good interaction anytime. The quote tweets are 10X the retweets. Not great.”

McAfee argued that the video should not be posted as Russell Wilson is doing his best in what he can. He is putting in every effort to make the Broncos look better. Though the social media team got good interaction, it did take a toll on the star QB image.

Former Colts Punter also stated that the team should be aware of what goes well with the folks on the internet. They should be very clear while posting such things as it can go another way round.
