Following the Denver Broncos’ Week 17 loss to the Kansas City Chiefs, Russell Wilson spoke to the press, and he got emotional while thanking his teammates for defending him on social media.
With tears in his eyes, Russell stated, "It meant the world to me because I give my all every day. I don’t know anything less. I’m grateful for these guys because they work their butts off and for them to have my back means the world to me. Jerry works at his craft every day and Kendall [Hinton], KJ, Tim [Patrick], and Courtland [Sutton], all of those guys do. All I want to do is help this team win and us find a way to do it. I know we’re going to overcome all of those obstacles and I’m not going to blink because I know who I am."
Russ was speaking about Jerry Jeudy, who wrote on Twitter, "I ain’t gonna keep looking at these false statements about my boii russ man, as a teammate who sees the elite work ethic this man has is incomparable. He got an office because he’s committed his life to this game. I never had a teammate who motivate me more then russ."
K.J. Hamler also showed support recently, writing, "Y'all really trying to bring this man down. Russ Is the most dedicated and hard working teammate I have had. And y’all wanna bring up this to put him under. Man stop it. 3ski a legend in my eyes. I Understand this season isn’t the way we wanted nor anybody wanted."
