‘He Wants It’: Russell Wilson Praises Roman Wilson’s Demeanor, Work Ethic

Though he’s on the shelf for the next few weeks due to an ankle injury suffered on the first day of padded practices at Saint Vincent College in Latrobe, rookie wide receiver Roman Wilson developed some strong chemistry with veteran quarterback Russell Wilson this offseason.

So much so, in fact, that despite limited work in training camp due to Russell Wilson’s calf injury, the veteran quarterback is singing the praises of the rookie receiver.

Appearing on SiriusXM NFL Radio’s “Movin’ The Chains” with hosts Pat Kirwan and Jim Miller, Russell Wilson said he loves Roman Wilson’s demeanor and appreciates the work he was able to get in with him this offseason as the rookie showed a real drive to get better.
