Russell Wilson's 2022 season with the Denver Broncos ended in disappointment. Wilson, however, has maintained a positive attitude as the new season approaches.

In a recent tweet, he lent his support to NBA icon Giannis Antetokounmpo after the Milwaukee Bucks' shocking playoff exit. After their disheartening defeat, Giannis was asked if the season was a failure. He gave a frustrated response.

“Every year you work towards something, towards a goal. Get a promotion, take care of your family, provide a house, I don’t know, take care of parents. It’s not a failure. I don’t want to make this personal, but there’s steps to success."

The 28-year-old went on to reference Michael Jordan, asking if his nine seasons without an NBA title were failures. According to Giannis, there is no failure in sports, only good and bad days that one has to deal with.

Wilson, who probably went through something similar with the Broncos last season, empathized with the 2021 NBA champion:

"Through the highs and lows..Keep going," Wilson wrote.

Russell Wilson's wife Ciara also responded to Giannis' comments.

"Powerful. Perspective. Greatness," the singer wrote.

Russell Wilson's response to Giannis Antetokounmpo caused fans to reach out to the NFL QB about his own performances. Fans want the former Seattle Seahawks signal-caller to make a strong comeback.

The Broncos failed to make an impact in 2022, ranking last in the league for points scored per game (16.9).

The Broncos are now working with Sean Payton, who will be looking to turn Wilson's fortunes around.
