Russell Wilson is a master of keeping plays alive, and he’s one of the NFL’s best when it comes to escaping trouble.
Wilson just arrived in Denver this offseason, so most of the Broncos’ players weren’t used to seeing the quarterback’s mobility firsthand. Defensive lineman D.J. Jones, who played against Wilson twice a year while with the 49ers, wasn’t surprised to see it.
“He did something in practice the other day, and everyone was like, ‘That isn’t real.’ Yes, it is,” Jones said last week. “That’s what he does. He makes time and he gives the offense time. He’s going to make a beautiful throw, and it’ll probably be a touchdown.”
