During his time as the Denver Broncos’ quarterback, Peyton Manning would take his wide receivers to Duke for offseason throwing sessions in the spring.
Russell Wilson, the team’s new quarterback, has taken a similar approach with a twist, hosting teammates at his impressive home in California for workouts.
“Wherever you go, I like the off-campus throwing,” Manning told Aric DiLalla of Denver Broncos.com last week. “There’s something about the [fact that] Russell can lead it, it’s just him and the receivers — coaches aren’t around. There’s some leadership there from all of the players. Obviously going out to San Diego, it sounds like it’s a heck of a facility.”
