Russell Wilson plays a weak season for the Denver Broncos and gets only little support from the head coach

Denver/Munich – He was signed with high expectations and has turned out to be a disappointment so far: Russell Wilson is having a difficult season as a new addition to the Denver Broncos. Seven of the last eight games were lost, including the last three games.

The quarterback is playing the weakest season of his career by far. His quarterback rating is only 82.1 – a weak value. In only one game so far this season has he managed more than one touchdown pass. And that was two months ago.

Inevitably, the question is whether a quarterback change could be an option. Head coach Nathaniel Hackett doesn’t seem to rule it out entirely. When asked if he would consider changing quarterbacks if it would give the team a better chance to win, Hackett simply responded with, “Not right now.”
