Week 1 comes to a close on “Monday Night Football” with one of the more intriguing storylines of the weekend, as Russell Wilson faces off against his former team, the Seattle Seahawks, in his first game as quarterback of the Denver Broncos.
Wilson played in Seattle for a decade and owns several franchise records, including completions, passing yards, and touchdown passes. The Seahawks traded Wilson this offseason, and have turned the starting quarterback job over to Wilson’s former backup, Geno Smith. Smith started three games for the Seahawks when Wilson was injured last season, but he hasn’t a full season's worth of games since 2014, in his sophomore season with the New York Jets.
