Despite wearing a new uniform, Russell Wilson returns to a familiar setting to begin his time as a member of the Denver Broncos.
The 33-year-old quarterback makes his debut as a Bronco on Monday night in Seattle, where Wilson spent the entirety of his NFL career prior to heading eastward over the offseason. His long and decorated history with the Seahawks makes for a built-in narrative for the teams' clash on "Monday Night Football," and Wilson expects the Seattle faithful to show up in force.
"I know they'll be rowdy. I know they'll be excited. It's Monday Night Football so it'll be a special environment," Wilson told reporters on Thursday.
"Listen, I think that I gave my heart and soul every day. I know nothing less. Hopefully it'll be positive, but at the same time, at the end of the day, I know we've got a game to play and everything else."
For his part, Wilson says he's got no hard feelings towards Seattle or the Seahawks, who he confirmed attempted to trade him "a couple of times" prior to him being moved in March to Denver in a deal that saw Drew Lock, Shelby Harris and Noah Fant head the opposite way.
"Definitely they tried to, a couple of times, tried to see what was out there,'' Wilson said in an ESPN story published last week. "It's part of the business, being a professional and everything else ... I believe in my talents, of who I am, I feel I'm one of the best in the world.''
Wilson will get to prove he's still got it, while also performing in front of the Seattle crowd one last time, on Monday.
