The Broncos and Russell Wilson have been the subject of significant scrutiny since it became clear the offense was far less capable than initially thought. The offense led by Wilson, who Denver traded a haul of both players and draft picks for during the offseason, is proving to be one of the worst in the NFL, but team management doesn’t sound worried.
Denver has struggled to start 2022, but general manager George Paton doesn’t have any regrets and said he felt “really good about the deal” as well as the new contract he signed Wilson to while he and the team prepare to face the Jaguars in London.
“Just really wanted to get ahead of it,” Paton said on the contract, per Zac Stevens of DNVR Sports. “We didn’t want a lot of distraction during the season. We feel really good about it. I feel good about that deal. I feel like it will hold up. I feel good about Russ.”
