Russell Wilson is slowly but surely discovering some rhythm with the Denver Broncos franchise. The Super Bowl winner, who spent 10 seasons with the Seattle Seahawks, joined Denver last offseason but struggled to lead the offense in his first year.
This season, though, Wilson has directed play well for the Broncos. The 34-year-old has looked like his old self, racking up 2,065 yards and 19 touchdowns, as Denver sits second in the AFC West with a 5-5 record.
In recent years, fans have also noticed that Wilson has a unique patch near the left shoulder of his jersey. Interestingly, it's an honor given to very few players in the NFL.
In 2017, the NFL said that winners of the Walter Payton Man of the Year award can wear a distinctive patch on their jerseys for the rest of their careers as part of recognition for the accolade.
Wilson won the Walter Payton Man of the Year award in 2020 while with the Seahawks. At the time, he was the latest quarterback to win the coveted title since Peyton Manning in 2016. Most recently, Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott won the award in 2022.
Wilson was first spotted with the patch on his jersey during his final season with Seattle in 2021. He has continued to flaunt the mark of honor since joining Denver.
