Russell Wilson inspires Denver Broncos to late comeback win over Jacksonville Jaguars

Russell Wilson overcame some hiccups to lead the Denver Broncos to a thrilling comeback victory as they defeated the Jacksonville Jaguars 21-17 at Wembley Stadium.

Wilson has been heavily criticised amid a poor start to his career with the Broncos following his high-profile trade from the Seattle Seahawks. However, the 33-year-old passed for 252 yards and a touchdown to help lead Denver to an important win, moving them 3-5 on the season in front of a UK-record 86,215 fans under the iconic arch.

Wilson entered the game with 106 wins - the fourth-most long active quarterbacks. However, it was the Jaguars' sophomore quarterback Trevor Lawrence who displayed the early composure expected of a veteran and former Super Bowl champion.
