Russell Wilson Believes He’s ‘Ahead Of Schedule’ In Buildup To Regular Season

After dealing with a calf injury through the early portion of training camp at Saint Vincent College in Latrobe, veteran Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Russell Wilson believes he’s now “ahead of schedule” in his buildup to the regular season.

Speaking with reporters Wednesday following the final day of training camp for the Steelers, Wilson — who saw a lot of QB1 reps in the final practice — stated that he’s feeling good and feels prepared for the start of the season despite the limited workload early on in training camp.

“I’ve been working every single day. Even the days I was a little bit lighter in team, I was just getting all the fundamental work and then I obvious over the past two weeks, really been building up a lot more reps and the team drills and everything else,” Wilson said of how he’s feeling, according to video via the Tribune-Review’s Chris Adamski on Twitter.
