Russell Wilson's time as a Bronco is officially underway, with Denver starting training camp. The blockbuster trade that sent Wilson from the Seattle Seahawks to Denver stirred up both teams as the Broncos immediately became contenders, while Seattle found themselves searching for their next great quarterback.

Wilson strutted into training camp wearing his own jersey, which took NFL fans by surprise.

Fans pointed out that some players wear t-shirts with their names on it.

Maybe it’s peculiar, maybe it’s normal. Who are we to say.

Russell Wilson’s trade affected the Denver Broncos and the Seattle Seahawks in different ways

Russell Wilson's arrival in Denver immediately made them a playoff contender, given the roster at their disposal.

From Courtland Sutton and Jerry Jeudy to Javonte Williams and Melvin Gordon III, the wide receivers and running backs at Wilson’s disposal will make the Broncos a favorite in the AFC West.

Incumbent playoff contenders like the Kansas City Chiefs will be dealing with the fallout of trading their star wide receiver Tyreek Hill to the Miami Dolphins. Although the Raiders got stronger with the signing of Davante Adams, question marks remain over their roster composition and coaching.

The AFC West as a whole should be the most competitive and entertaining division in the 2022-23 season.

The Seattle Seahawks, on the other hand, will begin the season with Geno Smith or former Broncos quarterback Drew Lock as their starting signal caller. Neither Smith nor Lock are top-level quarterbacks, which means players like DK Metcalf and Tyler Lockett will have to step up and provide them with as much support as they can.

Seattle will also rely heavily on their running backs, headed by Rashaad Penny, to do the heavy lifting in games.
