Wilson was given a five-year $245 million extension for the Broncos. He is the second-highest-paid player in NFL and the OT loss against the Colts became the talking point in the NFL. Wilson later revealed that he played the game with an injured shoulder. The injury is not expected to keep him out of the game against the Chargers.
Wilson and the Broncos need to steer up
In the Week 3 game, the star QB showed glimpses of his form, to help the Broncos register an 11-10 comeback win against the 49ers. Russell Wilson finished 20–of-33 for 184 yards. However, he did not register any touchdowns or turnovers.
