Russell Wilson was loathed by one of his newest team-mates at the Denver Broncos, due to his success in the divisional rivalry between former team Seattle Seahawks and the San Francisco 49ers.
Offensive lineman Mike McGlinchey left the 49ers at the end of last season and joined the Broncos on a five-year deal worth a reported $87.5million with over $50m guaranteed. McGlinchey is now team-mates with Wilson after spending three seasons trying to get the better of the quarterback who used to play for the Seahawks.
McGlinchey is 2-7 against teams where Wilson is in the quarterback role, and is therefore happy that he no longer has to face him. The new Broncos OT admitted that he "couldn't stand" Wilson in the past, but feels it's "awesome" to have the roles reversed for the first time since being drafted ninth overall back in 2018.
