It's no secret that Denver Broncos quarterback Russell Wilson struggled through what was truly a horrible first season with the Denver Broncos last year that saw them win just five games. Wilson himself finished 27th amongst League passers amongst his peers.

Under new head coach Sean Payton, Wilson will be looking for a bounce back year in 2023, and he's already reportedly been warned that he's playing for his job. 

And he's well aware of those who have been calling him out over the past 12 months, and he is sure to let them know that he's keeping the receipts. 

"I think you've got them in your back pocket sometimes," he said. "Listen, I'm used to some of those who believe and some of those who doubt. I think when you're playing high stakes and you dream to be the best that you can be every possible day there's always going to be people who question whether you can do it or not. I think I've proven that throughout my career what I can do. And I've got to do it again. That's just the name of the game."

Denver's bad start last year resulted in the firing of head coach Nathaniel Hackett after just 15 games. In comes Payton, who led the New Orleans Saints to a Super Bowl title. Can he work the same magic with the Broncos, and with Wilson in particular?
