Viral Russell Wilson workout video puts fans in splits

Russell Wilson may have put 2022 in the rear-view mirror, but NFL fans have not. The most recent evidence of this comes in response to the quarterback's latest workout video posted to Twitter.

Russell Wilson aims to bounce back after an underwhelming season

The quarterback has a Super Bowl ring and got within one pass of securing a second, but there was no indication of that last season. The Hackett-Wilson duo faceplanted in epic fashion, with the quarterback throwing for career-lows in touchdowns and wins accrued in a season.

The downfall came after one of the most hyped offseasons for the franchise since getting Peyton Manning. Fans and pundits were predicting the franchise to be a playoff team at worst and a Super Bowl winner at best.

Instead, the results were flipped. The Broncos finished last in their division and would have had a top-five pick had they not traded it to Seattle.

Seattle Seahawks go all-in on Geno Smith

After the Seahawks reached the playoffs with Geno Smith, the team went all-in and skipped the position entirely. Now, it will be up to Smith to prove the team didn't just burn a potential franchise quarterback for nothing. Overall, the team has pundits and fans split.

Some expect the quarterback to come tumbling back down to earth in a Jets-esque fashion. Others have put them as dark horses for the Super Bowl. When Pete Carroll and Russell Wilson won it all together a decade ago, it was in No. 3's second season. Now, in Smith's second season with Carroll, could a pattern be established?

Will the Seahawks be able to turn back the clock to their powers of yore? The results of 2023 could go a long way in proving who was more instrumental out of the two stars in the franchise's dominating run through the 2010s.
