In September, Quincy and Masai Russell, both first-time Olympic qualifiers, received a special honor at the Ravens game and soon after that, the Baltimore stars noted how incredibly inspiring these two track athletes are. And now, as the popular football team unveiled their new merch, they had to make sure the Bullis High School student got his piece.

Wilson recently took to Instagram stories to share the latest gift he received from the Ravens. In his social media update, it can be seen that the Baltimore team sent the speedster a “Mini Helmet” replica of their new headgear. “Thanks @ravens for sending me the miniature version of the new helmet,” wrote Wilson in his IG story as he once again pledged his allegiance to the 2nd ranked team of the AFC.

Wilson, who’s yet to commit to any collegiate program, has already been turning heads with his sensational performances. Even before his incredible run at the Paris Games, the high schooler was breaking men’s 400m records on a weekly basis, showcasing his prowess at the highest level of the sport. Naturally, everyone seems to want Quincy in their vicinity. Just recently, as the speedster visited Texas, loyalists of all programs in the state scurried to entice Wilson with their propositions so that he would consider joining them. But that’s not all.
