Sherman mentions, “Russell is being great. This opportunity in Denver will give him a chance to submit everything you’re talking about. It’s like, hey, is he who he thinks he is? Is he who the world thinks he is? Because if he goes to Denver and wins that freaking gauntlet of a division? It is solidified. Give him a jacket. If he does not, then it’s a whole different conversation. You know what I mean?”
Russell Wilson was a bombshell in Seattle. He put up crazy statistics that solidify his career as a QB. The Asterisk went into the Pro Bowl almost every year in his career, except for one (2016). Given Sherman’s claims, Russell has to win the playoffs to make his legacy shine.
