With NFL training camps coming to life across the league, Denver Broncos quarterback Russell Wilson reportedly decided to hold one of his own.

According to Denver Broncos 365 on Twitter, Wilson invited all of his wide receivers to his home in San Diego for an extra-curricular "training camp."

Throughout the offseason, the Super Bowl-winning quarterback has posted videos of himself working out and training on his own. As such, it was believed the invitation to his home wasn't just to socialize and that the signal-caller would be getting some extra work done with his teammates.

Russell Wilson was drafted by the Seattle Seahawks in the third round of the 2012 NFL draft. By 2015, he had already played in two Super Bowls and won one.

His lone Super Bowl win came against the Denver Broncos in Super Bowl 48, when the Seahawks eviscerated their opponents by a score of 43-8.

The win against Denver was the highest point of his career and the lowest point came a year later.

Towards the end of Super Bowl 49, Wilson had the New England Patriots on the ropes in a goalline situation. With a touchdown, the Seahawks would have taken a late lead and essentially closed out the game.

However, Wilson threw an interception on a quick slant in one of the most controversial plays in Super Bowl history.

Since then, Seattle have failed to hit the heights they did in 2014. From 2012 to 2020, the quarterback's worst record was 9-7. However, amid an injury-plagued season in 2021, Wilson went 6-8.

Soon after the year wrapped up, the team announced they had agreed to trade Russell Wilson to the team he once humbled on the biggest stage in sports. With the Seahawks, Wilson threw 292 touchdowns and 87 interceptions.

In 10 seasons in Seattle, he went 104-53-1. Wilson also played in 16 playoff games and went 9-7.
