Born and raised in Washington, I would of never thought Russel Wilson was going to be on another team. From ditching school and going to the super bowl parade in high school to intercepting his football in a nfl game! Thank you Seattle Russ!!!

Wonder if Von Miller’s decision to return home was connected to any intel of Russ talks …
