Russell Wilson Values His Weekly Hour ‘Closed Room’ Meetings With Mike Tomlin

In the NFL, when you aren’t playing in a game or practicing on a field, you’re probably in a meeting. Team meetings. Positional meetings. Union-meetings, the ones you gotta show up for to get your ‘Madden money.’ For Russell Wilson, his favorite meetings are the two he has each week with Mike Tomlin. An hour-long, it’s just Tomlin, Wilson, the other quarterbacks, and the occasional skill player popping in. A chance to dial in the focus and keys for the week.

Appearing on the Rich Eisen Show Friday, Wilson broke down what those meetings entail and why they mean so much.
